Maton Master Built 808 TE Personal - 16927

     It takes a special guitar to meet the demands of such a celebrated player, performing on the world stage. Designed in conjunction with guitar legend Tommy Emmanuel, the 808-TE series guitars are an outstanding tribute to Tommy's musicianship and Maton's superior craftsmanship. Built to Tommy's specifications, the TE series provides the huge tone and performance you would expect from a guitar bearing the name and C.G.P. registry.

     In tribute to the celebrated decades of the Maton's most iconic models, in 2025 their team turns to launching the Maton Master Built Series. Design and production of this series is dedicated to historically significant models that stand out; recognized as contributing to the value of the Maton brand - since their inception in 1946.

     Premium woods are used to craft the Maton Master Built Series in low production numbers, by a small select team of tenured builders

     The Tommy Emmanuel models feature a Mother of Pearl block inlay on the 12th Fret, engraved with "C.G.P." The acronym stands for "Certified Guitar Player," a title bestowed on Tommy by Chet Atkins.
