Maton - Performer Acoustic Electric Cutaway Guitar

Maton Performer Acoustic Electric Cutaway Guitar

Designed for the live stage, the Maton Performer is the perfect companion for the gigging musician. It is the same overall size as the 808 series guitars but with less depth to the body format. The thinner body leaves you closer to the microphone and nearer the action without having a large guitar to lean over, it is incredibly comfortable to hold and play for hours on end.

The Maton Performer features a Solid Bunya top, solid Queensland Maple back and sides. Bunya has an earthy and evocative tone, which is a deviation from the conventional Spruce. It has the volume, tone, and beauty to stand on its own. Moreover, Bunya is a sustainable guitar making soundboard that matures in 80 years as compared to the 300 plus years that it takes to grow Spruce. When combined with the clarity and evenness of response of the Queensland Maple, you get a high-performance guitar ideally designed for stage performances.Comfort and playability are the keys to this purpose built acoustic guitar series.

The back, sides and top are finished in satin that has a base coat of polyester that is UV-cured and sanded level. The timber is protected with no restriction to the natural tonal resonance of the instrument.
