This preloved Maton SRS808 just came in..

Great value for money for an Australian made all solid guitar with a fantastic AP5 Pro pickup built in.

There's still plenty of life left in this guitar , it plays and sounds great.

Its had its fair share of gigs with scratches and marks to prove it.

The nut has been replaced with a new Bone nut.

Comes with a Maton hardcase

Description

Maton SRS808 Acoustic-Electric Guitar

Why not be one of the first to own & play the NEW Maton SRS 808 incorporates solid Blackwood back and sides and a solid Spruce top. The SRS 808 is an absolutely beautiful little guitar and combines the warm, full tones of Blackwood with the sparkle and volume of Spruce. You won't be dissapointed..

A forward shifting of the X braces and the shifting of scallop peaks to nodal points around the soundboard help to enhance the vibration of the top. The shifting of the X braces also allowed the inclusion of a second, parallel tone bar which allows the scalloping of both tone bars, and spreads the load while reducing mass.

Adjusted bracing heights as well as a locked15 foot radius for the arch of the back, gave us the plate resonance separation we were looking for between top and back.

We now have the full, open, lower frequency response we were looking for as well as a crisp, well defined treble response.

The new 808 series sounds a whole lot bigger than a small bodied guitar should. We were hoping the end of this journey would produce a guitar that amazes the player at first strum, then continues to impress as each aspect of the sound of the guitar meets and surpasses the player’s expectation.
