Maton SRS808

Affordable quality from Maton in the form of this SRS808, with Red Cedar top!

Those guitars from Maton look good, and they sound great! The Maton SRS808 is another perfect one example of the craftsmanship of the Australian brand. Due to the combination of the massive Western Red Cedar top and Blackwood sides/back, this SRS808 produces one despite its small size particularly warm and full sound, with just enough sparkle in the highs thanks to the cedar top. Additional The advantage is that the whole looks very chic, especially with that beautiful Satin finish! Thanks to forward shifting X bracing system from Maton, this Red Cedar top can also vibrate optimally, which reduces the resonance of the wood - and therefore the complexity of the overall sound - benefits. The result is a sound with full and open low end, and defined, sparkling high end. The neck is made from Queensland Maple as is the fingerboard chosen Streaky Ebony. The amplified sound of this guitar is also from Australian soil above average, because Maton's own AP5 PRO pickup system is of exceptional quality. You you can make a tasteful blend between the piezo element and the built-in microphone, what an incredible realistic reproduction of the original acoustic sound. You can fine-tune this signal even further with the Treble and Bass sliders and even the midrange you can adjust to taste thanks to the MID and FQ (mid sweep) controls. And thanks to the use of electrolytic capacitors, the sound of the AP5 PRO is much cleaner than most acoustic pickups on the market, with far less distortion and loss of quality. In short, the Maton SRS808C is great value for money, and it sounds a lot bigger than it actually is. So it is a guitar that will appeal to a lot of guitarists! Includes hard case.

About the Maton SRS series

The SRS series from Maton is the result of years of experience in building and fine-tuning the Maton line-up by the luthiers and designers of the Australian brand. The guitars from this Solid Road Series are, as the name suggests presumably, the ideal guitars to take on the road. These instruments are fitted with a Tasmanian Blackwood or Queensland Maple side/back, A Grade Sitka Spruce or Red Cedar top, scalloped bracing, Queensland maple neck and rosewood or ebony fingerboard. So you can speak of a very complete guitar. In addition, all these models equipped as standard with the renowned AP5 Pro Pickup System, so that you also have the perfect sound live.
