One of the most inspiring players and singer/songwriters in the industry today, Australian native Joe Robinson has always been demanding of his instruments and has been incredibly particular about the specifications. The J.R. Signature Model features Tasmanian Myrtle back and sides with a spruce top, jumbo frets, an ultra-playable neck, and the lightest satin finish possible.
“I’ve been playing Maton guitars since I was 14 years old. They really are a huge part of my sound, and it means a lot that the relationship has moved to this level. I am so proud of this signature guitar. It is everything I hoped it would be and more. The sound, feel and build quality are impeccable. I am so happy this guitar is now out in the world for others to enjoy.”
– Joe Robinson
Maton has a deep respect for the natural timber and the sustainable management of wood species.
