Maton EM6 Mini Guitar Sitka Spruce & Queensland Maple w/ AP5 Original

Maton EM6 Mini

The Mini Maton EM6 Model is a small bodied guitar with a very big voice. Though it is a lot smaller than a standard dreadnought, this guitar packs a punch well above its weight. This models features an "AA Select" Grade Solid Sitka Spruce top, Queensland back and sides, AP5 pickup system and Grover machine heads. This Mini Maton could be just what your collection has been missing.

Originally used as a Mahogany "substitute", Queensland Maple has become the backbone of the Maton sound. It is used in nearly every Maton either as a neck, back & sides, or internal component.

A rainforest hardwood from Northern Queensland, this timber is light, strong, and visually striking. Queensland Maple is extremely well balanced with an even response across all frequencies. If you are looking for the secret to Maton's great tone, this is a good place to start.

With the AP5 Original Pickup, in one simple plug in you're stage ready. The AP5 Features a Treble, Bass, Volume and Sweepable Midrange EQ! Midrange is sweepable from 1 to 2khz and can be cut or boosted within this range. As a general rule for the system should start out ‘flat’ then be altered to achieve the tone desires. For example, an open, natural sound can be achieved by setting the frequency control at 1.4khz and the boost/cut control at 5db. Alternatively, for a ‘thick’ lead sound boost your mids by 5db and set the frequency dial at 1.7kh
