Visit to the Maton guitar factory



Earlier this week Graham was attending a trade show in Melbourne to check out some of the lastest gear and unexpectedly had a few spare hours before his plane left so he headed out to see the lads at Maton. The factory is in Box Hill and is fantastic place to visit if you're ever over that way. Graham went for a walk around the factory with Andy from the Maton Custom Shop who showed him a couple of the latest designs he is working on... in particular Maton Custom Shop "Traditional" which is little more old school in design & will suit all those fingerpickers out there very well.  It is about the same size as a Martin 000 (funny about that!).  :-)    Andy is holding one he is half way though making... and Graham just couldn't resist ordering it (no surprises there!). It looks like it's going to be a stunning guitar.

The guys in the "Mini" Maton section were also pleased to see Graham... especially as they told him Concept Music is one of the biggest "Mini" dealers in the country!  We have sold over 80 of them since they released them only 5 years ago!

Great work Maton... keep it up.
