AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
PERFORMER
Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne
The Maton EBG808CL Performer Acoustic Electric Guitar is a beautifully designed instrument that combines comfort, performance, and exceptional tone. With its slim, cutaway body and a Bunya soundboard, the Performer delivers a well-rounded, responsive sound that competes with larger-bodied guitars despite its smaller size. This design, paired with solid Queensland maple back and sides, ensures that the guitar retains punchy projection and richness of tone, while being easy to handle for any playing style, from strumming to intricate leads. Whether on stage or in the studio, the Performer offers superior versatility.
Featuring Maton’s signature AP5 PRO electronics, this guitar is primed for amplification without compromising its natural tone. It allows musicians to perform with full-bodied, dynamic sound, whether they’re playing unplugged or plugged in. The scalloped Maton X-bracing and solid Sitka spruce top further enhance the clarity and fullness of sound, making the Performer a reliable companion for both professional and aspiring players. Its playability is complemented by a smooth Queensland maple neck, which offers a comfortable feel for the hand and enhances the overall balance of the guitar.
Built with sustainable materials and exceptional craftsmanship, the Maton Performer is a reliable instrument that stands out for its tone and versatility. Its intricate design details, like the mosaic rosette, streaky ebony fingerboard, and ivory bindings, give the guitar a refined aesthetic, while the added AP5 PRO pickup system ensures it’s stage-ready at all times. The Performer combines elegance, functionality, and practicality in a way that only Maton can deliver, making it a great choice for musicians who seek comfort, performance, and superior craftsmanship in an acoustic-electric guitar.

The item arrived within 2 days of purchase and was just as advertised. It plays great just as you'd expect a Maton to, with a hardcase. If any constructive feedback, it's just that the case is a bit too tight and the pickup knobs catches on the lining when it goes in the case.
AustraliaBeautiful instrument, no problems with delivery or condition of my new instrument Only problem I have encountered is when the guitar is removed or put back in the supplied case,the pickup controls get caught on the cloth lining of case. Other than that I cant fault the service or guitar
AustraliaIm in love with this guitar by far the best sounding & everything. The strings are epic , the most loveliest sound on the planet . Not a single regret , so happy . Thankyou
AustraliaA very competitive price offered by Acoustic Centre. Placed an Online order on the 22 Dec 2021 for Maton Performer. Received the delivery on the 24 Dec 2021 by a reputable TNT courier service. An Amazing prompt delivery. Would definitely recommend Acoustic Centre. As for Maton Performer, a small body guitar with bold sound. Love the feel and acoustic sound.
AustraliaIt is divine. The sound is magnificent. It's smaller than my other Maton which makes it very easy to hold and play. I love it..
AustraliaAmazing guitar. Would absolutely recommend to anyone who wants something small frame that sounds unreal!
Amazing guitar. Would absolutely recommend to anyone who wants something small frame that sounds unreal!
Purchased this guitar as my first proper acoustic guitar . Was astounded and the unique tone it produced . Very happy with the purchase . Highly recommended for those who have learning guitar for sometime now and wanting a better instrument to further their skills at a reasonable price .
I bought this guitar at the start of 2015. Being a remote teacher in Central Australia the smaller body but big sound helps me in the class room where I use it to teach disadvantaged Indigenous kids. The way I value the guitar shows the students the importance of having possessions of use to aid in learning. I have recorded it and the pick up is amazing. I also have an ECW80 and the Performer's pick ups sound just as good despite having the smaller body.
Just got the Maton Performer and plugged it into my Bose Compact L1 (also from Acoustic Centre). Wonderful sound,clarity and set-up .Extremely happy with the tone and variety I can get from the EQ settings. Richard Burton

I have nothing bad to say about this beast of a guitar! I have owned this for a few years now and it is so versatile and the sound that it produces is just incredible, i dare say i will own this guitar for many years to come!
I've been using this for gig for a year now and it's been perfect, great sounding low and can a few sweet spots that sound like kick drum when tapped, perfect for looping.
Gorgeous tone which keeps on maturing, and so comfortable to play, both for its smooth, fast neck and smaller, thinner body (this coming from a petite female guitarist!). Sounds wonderful both acoustically and plugged into an amp, and is suited to a wide range of musical styles. Money very well spent, highly recommended, and wonderful service from the guys at the Acoustic Centre!
