Maton Guitars. I love them!

So I have this Australian made Maton acoustic guitar. It’s a maton m225 natural series. It has a Spruce top, Queensland Maple back and sides, Rosewood fingerboard and bridge - natural finish. It’s all natural so it has no electric system. While this is the bottom of the Maton line, it is still an outstanding guitar. Fabulous Maton quality and unbeatable sound! Technically it’s not really mine, it’s my Brother in-laws. But he lives in Australia and said I could look after it. I first used it in 2009 when I recorded my demo CD Raining In Your Heart. Pretty much all the acoustic guitar work on that CD is the Maton. To hear the results for yourself click HERE.

I’ve also used the Maton at many of my live performances in and around Los Angeles. You can see some of my videos by clicking HERE. Overall I love this guitar. It’s by far the best guitar I have used. It’s like the Australian version of Martin but with a brighter sound. I've been using Elixir strings and they work great with this guitar. Although I will be trying out some Martin strings soon to see if I can attain a slightly warmer sound. I really want to try the more top of the range Maton’s and see what the electric acoustics play like. I’m pretty sure that I won’t be disappointed. Just like you won’t when you try one for yourself. This is one guitar manufacturer I would love to be endorsed by.
