Maton EBG808 NASHVILLE
ACOUSTIC-ELECTRIC GUITAR

 

Maton Guitars are increasingly becoming the instrument of choice for guitarists the world over and Antipodean Guitar Slinger and Country Music legend, Keith Urban has made the Maton EBG808 Nashville his own.

The look is 100% pure class with its satin lacquer vintage amber burst finish, gold hardware and herringbone binding but don’t be fooled, this is no show pony. Premium Victorian Blackwood has been hand selected for the back and sides which, in combination the AA grade Sitka Spruce delivers the mighty bass response, warm mid-range and focused projection that the EBG808 has become famous for.

The 808 first saw the light of day way back in 1978 and since then the series have become one of the most revered and enduring in the Maton range. Within the smaller shape lies one of Maton’s most versatile live performance and studio guitars – the power and the punch of this superb guitar cannot be overstated. The addition of the AP5Pro pickup system – one of the world’s finest acoustic pickups – ensure that this guitar is ready for any challenge.

Finally, our inhouse PRO-SCM setup adds the finishing touch to what is by any measure, a world class guitar.
