EM100C-808
Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne
The Maton EM100C-808 Messiah Acoustic Electric Guitar is a testament to high-end craftsmanship, combining premium tonewoods and exceptional design. With a solid AAA-grade spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides, this 808 body model delivers a full, articulate sound with warmth, clarity, and resonance. The scalloped Maton X bracing and solid mahogany neck further enhance tonal richness, while the cutaway design offers excellent upper fret access for lead playing and expressive dynamics.
Originally redesigned in 2012, the EM100C-808 blends tradition and refinement, showcasing a herringbone rosette, maple pinstripe binding, and UV gloss finish that highlights the natural beauty of the wood. Equipped with the AP5-Pro pickup system, this guitar offers a faithful and powerful amplified tone, ideal for stage and studio alike. The signature “Messiah” pearl block inlay and gold Grover tuners elevate its visual appeal, making this instrument both a sonic powerhouse and a work of art.
