What We Think

Condition: Used, Good (two finish scuffs, back and front, pictured)

Flatpicked or fingerpicked, rhythm or lead, this versatile small bodied Maton can do it all with the seal of approval of an iconic guitar player. The combination of Sitka and Maple makes for a quick, clear attack with plenty of power and sustain behind it. And with the addition of Maton's AP5 Pro pickup system, this one's ready to plug and play and sounds great doing it!

Manufacturer's Description from Maton

If you've ever seen Tommy Emmanuel perform you will know he is one of the world's greatest guitarists, and one of the most inspirational musicians on the planet.

It takes a great guitar to meet the demands of such a great player. Designed in conjunction with guitar great Tommy Emmanuel, the TE series guitars are an outstanding tribute to Tommy's musicianship and Maton's superior craftsmanship. Built to Tommys specifications, the TE series provides the huge tone and performance you would expect from a guitar bearing the name.

Tommy looks for a guitar with superb tone, capable of the most delicate expression as well as the most ferocious attack. The neck must stay true regardless of the rigours of international travel and the guitar needs to perform at its peak, from Rome, to Nashville, to Sydney!

Our Tommy Emmanuel models feature a Mother of Pearl block inlay on the 12th Fret, engraved with "C.G.P." The acronym stands for "Certified Guitar Player," a title bestowed on Tommy by Chet Atkins and held by only 3 other guitarists in the world - John Knowles, Jerry Reed and Steve Warriner.

Tommy has done Australia proud and we are honoured that he continues to use Maton as his guitar of choice.
