Maton Master Built T.E. Personal Tommy Emmanuel Signature Acoustic Electric Guitar

Includes Hardshell Case

The Maton Master Built T.E. Personal is a signature instrument that honors the legendary artistry of Tommy Emmanuel with masterful construction and extraordinary tone. As part of Maton's elite Master Built series, this guitar is hand-voiced and meticulously crafted by Maton’s most experienced luthiers, led by Head of R&D Patrick Evans. Featuring hand-selected AAAA-grade Sitka spruce and figured Queensland maple, this 808-size model captures Tommy's iconic tone with outstanding clarity, responsiveness, and sustain.

Designed to meet the demands of professional performance, the T.E. Personal offers scalloped Maton X bracing for optimal resonance and balance, a streaky ebony fingerboard and bridge for smooth playability, and a stylish walnut headstock veneer inlaid with pearl kangaroo and logo. The AP5 PRO pickup system ensures it sounds as incredible plugged in as it does unplugged, making it a true stage-ready masterpiece. Finished in a satin Honey Face top with natural back and sides, the T.E. Personal is a visually stunning tribute to one of the world’s greatest players.

Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.
