Maton / WA May Mint / 2018 / Guitar

Maton WA May 2018 in Mint condition. Designed as a tribute to Maton founder, Bill May. A perfect culmination of the Maton heritage and their guitar making skills. The W.A May is a guitar for the true connoisseur. You don’t have to look very far to see many of the ideas and concepts that were close to the heart of Maton’s founder in this beautiful Custom Shop model. The 000 or “Traditional” shape that this incarnation takes on is arguably it’s most classical and stylistic form to date. We just love this body style and everything it offers the player tonally and as a reliable, versatile and comfortable instrument.  Bills signature 3 layered deco style headstock sits atop this model proudly as it did on Bills very first Maton guitar (still in the Maton Museum 70 years on). The W A May Features a Solid Spruce Top with highly figured Fiddleback Blackwood back and sides. A stunning and so often favoured combination of timber that is truly symbolic of Maton’s Australian heritage. The body depth on the WA May Trad is the same as that of the 808 models. It is deeper than standard 000’s and as such creates a deeper voice with plenty of bottom end and all sonic ranges are on show. A True Trailblazers guitar. Includes original hardshell case with certificate of authenticity and wooden USB stick containing photo's of the build proces.  Specifications: Body Shape: Traditional Finish: Natural Body Material: Solid  Select AAA Victorian Blackwood Top Material: Solid AAA Spruce Lefty No Body Details: AAA Satin Box bindings, black/white top trim, black/white/Blackwood rosette Neck Material: Blackwood Neck Profile: C Fingerboard Material: Australian White Mahogany (Heat Treated) Fingerboard Radius: 16” Neck Details: Pearl dot position markers,  Nutwidth: 44 mm - 1 47/64" Scale Length: 650 mm - 25 9/16" String spacing: 56 mm - 2 3/16" Bridge: Australian White Mahogany (Heat Treated) Tuners: Grover gold closed back w/ pearloid buttons Pickup None Condition: Mint Cosmetic Condition: None Modifications/, Repairs: None Tech Notes: None Travels in: Original Hardshell Case Accessories: Certificate of Authenticity, USB stick w/ construction pictures

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
