Maton EBG808C-TE Tommy Emmanuel Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar

Tommy Emmanuel stands among the world's most extraordinary guitarists, and his signature Maton TE series represents the pinnacle of Australian guitar craftsmanship designed to match his legendary performance standards. These instruments are built to Tommy's exacting specifications, combining superior tone with the durability required for international touring from Rome to Nashville to Sydney.

The TE series guitars feature Tommy's preferred 808 body shape with cutaway, crafted from AAA grade spruce top and Queensland maple back and sides. Each guitar showcases Maton's scalloped X bracing system and includes the distinctive Mother of Pearl block inlay at the 12th fret, engraved with "C.G.P." - representing Tommy's rare "Certified Guitar Player" title bestowed by Chet Atkins and shared by only three other guitarists worldwide: John Knowles, Jerry Reed and Steve Warriner.

Built for both delicate expression and ferocious attack, these guitars feature a streaky ebony fingerboard with 21 frets, chrome Grover Rotomatic machine heads, and the professional AP5 Pro pickup system. The satin honey finish with vintage amber stain back and sides, combined with herringbone rosette and tortoiseshell pickguard, creates an instrument that performs as beautifully as it looks. Each guitar includes a Maton standard hard case and represents the finest in Australian guitar manufacturing.
