I'll be the first to say that the EA80C from ‪@matonguitars‬ is the best thing to come out of Australia since the Tim Tam Slam! This guitar is designed to showcase the tone and beauty of Australian wood, and they nailed it! Check out the video as I test out this wonder from down-under. This guitar is meaner than a drop bear in tourist season!

Justin, I think we 🇦🇺 should make you an honorary Australian. You should visit down under and do some concerts and a workshop.

@shwasywasy 2 года назад

I bought my 808 artist model a year ago and it is one of the best instruments Ibe owned. It's so subtle and exceptionally well made! Never goes out of tune and is fantastic for gigging! Glad to see my home land getting the recognition it deserves!

I could never do justice to such a wonderful guitar but fully appreciate players like Justin. Stunning, hard earned skills.

Been playing Matons for 35 years. Some of the finest guitars on the planet, period. beautiful sounding & playings. not cheap, but worth every penny.

@grumpytrumpy8015 2 года назад

Thanks Justin , what a great guitar review. You give your audience exactly the information they need but expand on this information with fabulous playing. Maton Australia must be very happy to have a guitarist of your caliber giving honest and outstanding reviews & demonstrations of their instruments. Nice touch of humour as well. Cheers mate from Auustraya !

My BG808 still going strong. Made in October 1979, been with me since then. Played it at a gig 3 months ago. Never had a setup, replaced tuners back in the 80s sometime ( busted original tuners). Fishman pickup installed, always good to go. I'm glad it can’t talk about some of the places it’s been.

@pharmerdavid1432 2 года назад

I don't think I've ever seen JJ so stoked about a new guitar. It's good to see luthiers making their own pickups. Pickups are very important to the sound, so why shouldn't guitar makers want to make their own? Luthiers put so much care into making instruments, why not put the same care into making sure it's amplified properly too? Some might say making pickups is different than making guitars, but pickups are relatively simple to make in comparison, so why NOT make them yourself if you're already a talented luthier? It sure sounds sweet, those Aussie tone woods obviously work well. Some other companies like "Godin" in Canada, and "Rukaungas" in Finland, use some native woods, and make their own pickups too (if they are reading this, please send JJ a guitar?). Cheers!

A truly GREAT review of this instrument. As an Australian & a past owner of 6 to 7 Maton guitars, I really appreciated than someone did the job properly and demonstrated its features with exceptional performing skills! Best review of a guitar I've ever seen! Congratulations!

@tekannon7803 2 года назад

I'm coming in after the description JJ has done and I am impressed with how beautifully crafted the guitar is. It's a work of art and it's exactly a guitar that acoustic guitar players the world over would love to play.

A mate of my brother provides Maton with local wood from Tasmania (Australia). The "Other" big guitar company in Melbourne is Cole Clark. Originally in Maton, the luthier that created it also uses amazing timber and quality stuff. Check out the Fat Lady models.

I had a luthier put an AP5 pro pickup in my old Maton ECW. It really is a brilliant system. Made a great guitar even better.

@dannyfournier6657 2 года назад

@ryankm48 2 года назад

I have a 12 string that was hand made in Australia that sounds like this. Nice bright clear acoustic tones. Really resonates well. I bought it because I could tune it by ear pretty easily compared with others and that clarity and sparkle helps. Put some heavy bronze 80/20 so it is deep also.

@paulwerlemann8478 2 года назад

I bought my first CW80 in 1985. I bought another one in 2000 and a third in 2019. They are all different and all great. The pickup system on the 85 is a bit lacking. But acoustically it is awesome. Great to see Australian made making it all over the world.

@timcotterill3952 2 года назад

Liking your reaction to some of the best Aussie Guitars. I’ve only just picked my new Maton SRS808c. It has a Gorgeous tone, and lovely to play. Didn’t cost a fortune, but it wasn’t cheap either. Mine has a Western Red Cedar top, Blackwood back & sides with a Queensland Maple Neck. It’s not pretty, but it was the best sounding 808 in the shop. It suits me to a tee, not pretty, but makes a pretty sound… like me.

@joebloggs4362 Год назад

When I purchased my first Maton, I lived and worked on an Island Resort in Hospitality. I put the guitar on the boat and into the hands of the guitarist who was playing at the Bar that night, and he played it for hours before commenting on how good it was, and that I had graciosly let him play it for his gig. It was awesome, a Sept 2000 Maton TE1 Artist, still awesome to this day. ❤️

@wesleycardinal8869 2 года назад

I had one for a while, it had a big beautiful voice. But I sold it as it was just too big to play comfortably sitting down - which is what I mostly do. The smaller 808 model would be a good choice, but if you're playing on stage standing, its a great big sounding instrument.
