Maton History
Now firmly established as Australia’s favourite and most successful guitar, Maton has gained international acclaim as an instrument of the highest quality. Following Bill May’s vision of creating handcrafted guitars at an affordable price, Maton continues to uphold his philosophy to this day
Our timber suppliers cut specifically for us, which ensures that every piece of timber cut from the log has a use within the manufacture of our guitars.
The body shape or size of your Maton Guitar will define its character and tone.
Maton manufactures its own pickups, which we consider essential to maintaining the sound of both the instrument and its internal amplification system.
Bracing is a system of struts and supports that are glued to the underside of the top of a guitar in a specific pattern to provide strength to the top. More importantly though, bracing is a way of shaping the sound, voice and personality of a guitar.
