AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
The Maton EMD-6 Mini Acoustic Electric Guitar, affectionately known as the "Diesel Model," is proof that great things come in small packages. Originally built as a travel companion, this compact instrument has gained a reputation for punching far above its weight, delivering a powerful, resonant voice despite its scaled-down body. With a premium AA-grade Sitka spruce top and solid Blackwood back and sides, the EMD-6 offers a bold, well-balanced tone that’s clear and rich across the frequency range. Endorsed by Australian music icon Diesel, this guitar is perfect for live gigs, writing sessions, or studio work.
Outfitted with Maton’s AP5 Original pickup system, the EMD-6 faithfully reproduces its natural tone in amplified settings. The gold Grover Rotomatic tuners provide excellent tuning stability, while the streaky ebony fingerboard and bridge ensure smooth playability. A laser-cut “M” monogram rosette, vintage amber satin finish, and tortoiseshell pickguard with a gold M logo round out its refined visual appeal. Lightweight yet sonically impressive, the EMD-6 is ideal for players who crave portability without sacrificing professional-grade performance.
