Maton EBG808C-TE-TSB Tommy Emmanuel Acoustic Electric Guitar - Tobacco Sunburst
The Maton EBG808C-TE-TSB Tommy Emmanuel Signature Acoustic Electric Guitar is a true player’s instrument, crafted to meet the high standards of one of the world’s greatest guitarists. Designed in close collaboration with Tommy Emmanuel, this signature model embodies Maton’s renowned craftsmanship and delivers the balance, tone, and reliability Tommy demands on the world stage.
Built with a cutaway 808 body shape, a AAA Select spruce top, and Queensland maple back and sides, the EBG808C-TE-TSB produces a warm, articulate sound with superb projection. The scalloped Maton X bracing ensures responsiveness across every dynamic, from the most delicate fingerpicking to powerful strumming. Finished in a stunning Tobacco Sunburst Satin, this guitar is as visually captivating as it is sonically expressive.
Every detail has been thoughtfully refined to meet Tommy’s exacting standards, from the smooth Queensland maple neck and Indian rosewood fingerboard, to the professional-grade AP5 PRO pickup system for faithful amplified performance. The signature “C.G.P.” Pearl Block inlay at the 12th fret pays tribute to Tommy’s rare honor of being recognized by Chet Atkins as a “Certified Guitar Player.” Complete with a Maton Standard Hard Case, this guitar is built for life on the road and beyond.
