AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
The Maton EM100C-12 Messiah 12-String is a triumphant return of a legendary model, redesigned to deliver shimmering octave-rich tone and world-class playability. Built with a AAA grade Sitka Spruce top and solid Indian Rosewood back and sides, this 12-string dreadnought delivers a bold, resonant sound with clarity and depth across the tonal spectrum. Whether you're playing complex arpeggios or full chordal textures, the Messiah’s powerful projection and lush harmonic overtones stand out in any mix.
Featuring a cutaway for comfortable upper fret access, the EM100C-12 is crafted for serious performers who demand rich acoustic tone both unplugged and amplified. Maton’s AP5-Pro pickup system ensures superb stage-ready sound, blending a piezo transducer and condenser mic for natural amplification. With elegant details like the MOP ‘M’ headstock inlay, UV gloss finish, and gold Grover tuners, this 12-string Messiah is an inspiring instrument for players and collectors alike.
