Looking for a guitar with a unique, rich tone that sets it apart from the rest? Look no further than the Maton EBW808 Blackwood Acoustic Electric Guitar, the latest addition to the all-solid Australian blackwood series. This stunning guitar boasts a combination of timbers that create a warm and punchy sound while still providing excellent string separation. The all-Blackwood construction produces a tonal compression that blends frequencies into a new, unique voice that was previously only available from custom-built Koa guitars.

With a streaky Ebony fretboard and bridge, the Maton EBW808 features one of the hardest-wearing timbers on Earth that will see you through a lifetime of playing. The guitar's beautiful caramel tones and excellent figure, combined with "mini rope" binding and rosette, make for a truly stunning look. And with a superb feel and easy-to-play neck profile, it's clear that Maton has once again raised the bar for quality and craftsmanship.

Whether you're shopping in-store or browsing our online guitar store, our experienced staff are always on hand to help you find the perfect guitar to suit your needs. So why wait?

    Maton Blackwood. EBW808

    Very happy with it, thank you. You have done a wonderful job with the set up, I am happy to not have to take it to a Guitar Repairer for adjustments. The strings are a little heavier than I am used to, but that’s minor. It has amazing electrics.
