Perfect sound and materials
I play for many years and heard about this manufacturer since I met Tommy on the internet. Youtube has opened us the possibilities to discover more brands and we can easily assess the quality according to the reviews and videos. I used to play on mediocre guitars with the solid wood though. Nevertheless I wanted something unique and special with perfect sound and ergonomy. My favourite style is fingerstyle.
I´ve found this Maton EBG 808 artist model and so far so good. Great mature sound with natural lows, highs surprised me indeed. The action was not suited for me so I easily adjust the truss rod with included key (all you need is to find the special position) (I thought the key is not included so I have 2 now:). No buzzing and not wanted sounds after the setting to prefered action. All is perfect. The bonus is the plugged sound. I am using the Schertler JAM wood model which is for me better than AER 60 model. The results are awesome. Now I wake up at 5 to play at least one hour and enjoy the silence and the incredible sound of this piece. Thank you Australia and Thomann.

Maton EBG808A
A great guitar with an exceptional sound.
First off, the craftsmanship on this guitar is amazing. Every little detail is catered for, from the gold hardware, amazing woods (grain on back is unbelievable), fretboard and neck. When you hold this guitar it gives you an experience of playing a high quality instrument, something unique.
Sound wise it is also very good. Despite having a smaller than average body, its tone is full and well defined. This combined with and an awesome in built pickup (which include both a mic and a Piezo) make the guitar ideal for live performances (very comfortable) and even studio use.
I gave a 4 on quality, since it is very sensitive to weather / humidity changes. My advice is to use a humidifier and try keeping it at a constant temperature, otherwise you will have to adjust it every now and then.
Other than that, I would 're-buy' this instrument in an instance, no wonder Tommy Emmanuel endorses this company.

Best Guitar with built-in mic to Sing and Gig. No wonder emmanuel rock with this and the finish is awesome. What do you have to lose, not happy return within 30 days and get your refund. Good value for money. See label inside ; every parts is inspected and sign off by guitar quality builder from Australia.
