Maton Guitars

EBW808


The Blackwood 808

Simplicity and purity of tone lay at the heart of the Blackwood range of Guitars. Pure Blackwood tone -clear, bright trebles, strong mid range and full bass. The all Blackwood construction produces a unique compression, blending frequencies into a new, unique voice.

A cutaway version of the new Maton EBW808 is also available, and our EBW808 can also be ordered as a left-handed guitar.
