Maton EBG808 TE Sunburst - The signature sound of Tommy Emmanuel
For the most part, Australian wood species such as Queensland Maple, Queensland Walnut, Australian Blackwood and Bunya, a hardwood that only grows in Australia, are used for the top. Necks at Maton are made exclusively from Queensland Maple. This very hard, often visually unspectacular wood is an important building block for the unmistakably clear and percussive Maton sound that world-class guitarists such as Tommy Emmanuel, Michael Fix and many others appreciate so much.
