AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
EBG808C-TE
Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne
The Maton EBG808C-TE 'Tommy Emmanuel' Acoustic Electric Guitar is a signature model created in collaboration with the legendary guitarist Tommy Emmanuel. Designed to meet the demands of one of the world's greatest players, this guitar blends Maton's superior craftsmanship with Tommy’s unique specifications. It features a beautifully crafted “AAA Select” Grade spruce top, paired with solid Queensland maple back and sides, delivering a rich, resonant tone with remarkable projection and clarity. This instrument excels in both delicate expression and powerful performance, making it ideal for a wide range of playing styles, from intricate fingerpicking to full-bodied strumming.
A notable feature of the EBG808C-TE is its Mother of Pearl block inlay on the 12th fret, engraved with the “C.G.P.” (Certified Guitar Player) title, which was awarded to Tommy Emmanuel by Chet Atkins. The “C.G.P.” title is held by only a few guitarists worldwide, adding to the guitar's prestige. The guitar's design ensures it can handle the rigors of international travel while maintaining flawless performance, making it a trusted companion for Tommy on his worldwide tours. Whether performing in bustling cities or intimate venues, the EBG808C-TE delivers the tone and durability that meets Tommy’s exacting standards.
Built with a select Queensland maple neck and streaky ebony fingerboard, the EBG808C-TE offers a smooth playing experience with a classic feel. The guitar’s vintage amber stain satin finish complements the high-quality materials, while its scalloped X bracing enhances resonance. The onboard AP5-Pro pickup system ensures top-tier amplified sound, capturing every nuance of Tommy's dynamic playing. This model, available for both right- and left-handed players, is a true tribute to Tommy Emmanuel's artistry and Maton’s commitment to exceptional craftsmanship, and it comes with a standard Maton hard case for added protection during travel.
