AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
The Maton EM100C Messiah Custom 'Tobacco Sunburst' is a breathtaking one-off build crafted exclusively for Acoustic Centre. Designed to showcase the finest in tonewood selection and aesthetic detail, this guitar features a striking custom Tobacco Sunburst finish over solid AAA-grade Sitka spruce. Paired with premium Indian rosewood back and sides, the Messiah delivers a bold, complex tone with deep lows, sparkling highs, and a wonderfully articulate midrange.
Loaded with Maton's AP5 Pro pickup system, the Messiah offers superior stage performance, blending a piezo element with an onboard condenser mic for incredible depth and clarity. The 808 cutaway body shape ensures a balanced response, while the ebony fingerboard and snowflake inlays add elegance and playability. With a rosewood/maple-bound body, gloss finish, and a protective flight case included, this custom 'Tobacco Sunburst' Messiah is a show-stopping instrument built for the serious musician.

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.
