Maton Custom Shop CS Classic with Cutaway

"The CS Classic is my Custom Shop take on an Acoustic Guitar Standard. The 000 or OM (Orchestra Model) body shape has been an icon for all acoustic guitar makers for decades now. Utilizing the timbers that are most recognized in the style, I developed the CS Classic with a mix of AAA Grade European Spruce and Indian Rosewood for the back and sides.

After extensive testing tonally and geometrically I settled upon a forward shifted X brace pattern to bring the rich bottom end from the guitar whilst maintaining an earthy mid-range and that classic Maton Glassy top register. It is not only the balance of tonality I am proud of, but the projection, clarity, and volume that this shape captures so well. It truly is a classic shape." -Andy Allen

The AP5 Pro Pickup System includes a separate microphone and piezo pickup, both of which can be blended via their individual controls. The system is designed to capture the true sound of the instrument utilizing the adjustable cardioid mic, which is mounted directly to the pre-amp, and the unique piezo system to permit easy final tweaking of microphone position to suit the individual artist's style.

All handcrafted Maton Custom Shop guitars include a USB drive with images of your guitar in production. Photos courtesy of Andy Allen, all in a days work.
