The Maton Mini Diesel EMD-12 delivers rich, full-bodied tone in a remarkably compact format. Designed with input from acclaimed Australian artist Diesel, this mini 12-string features an "AA" grade spruce top and solid blackwood back and sides, offering surprising resonance and projection along with the lush harmonics and shimmering top end that come with a 12-string configuration.

Maton's AP5 PRO pickup system means it sounds just as good plugged in as it does acoustically, while the shorter 22.7" scale makes for a more comfortable playing experience on a 12-string neck. The streaky ebony fingerboard and split bridge add tonal clarity, and the vintage amber satin finish, gold Grover Rotomatic tuners and tortoiseshell pickguard make it ideal for performers and songwriters on the move.

Features

  • "AA" grade spruce top with solid blackwood back and sides delivers surprising resonance and projection for a mini-bodied 12-string.
  • Compact 12-string design, developed with input from Diesel, offers huge tone with enhanced portability.
  • Maton's AP5 PRO pickup system produces natural-sounding amplified tone on stage or in the studio.
  • Shorter 22.7" scale length with a streaky ebony fingerboard and split bridge keeps the 12-string neck comfortable and responsive.
  • Vintage amber satin finish, gold Grover Rotomatic tuners and a tortoiseshell pickguard complete a striking look, with a mini hardcase included for transport.
