@stickgs. You may already know this. Neil Finn of Crowded House has been playing Maton guitars for years and even has a rare 12 string electric model. Apparently Maton have a "Neil Finn" Signature model in development/ready for market. I am sure that Neil was "test driving" a prototype at this years' Glastonbury Festival. Looked like Maton had changed their "hole in the headstock" design for the NF Signature model (maybe?). Stay safe and well.

Tommy definitely brought a lot of attention to the name but even before he got his hands on one they were making superb guitars. I think it would have been a matter of time before other artists realised their quality and started promoting them.

Arno Deboosere played a Messiah 100 on Let It Be, a Beatles song. Totally different, I think a tighter string tuning, but it sounds sooo different. Find it. Beautiful. I believe much of it is in the construction of the finger flesh and bone.

Whoever did the woodwork in that showroom is definitely a master of his craft,it’s beautiful.

In the hands of a master, aka Justin, these guitars sound even more phenomenal.

Justin keeps getting better at playing every time I watch him year after year. He is putting in the hours on the strings. And it shows

Sheeew Weeee.... That tone the Messiah has is something now!! May have to make the 100mile trip from KY to the music city and check one out myself!!

Justin, I am so amazed at your talent and knowledge of guitars. When you play, it's much more than just music and you play with such ease! God bless you.

I could listen to that for hours. Those are some beautiful guitars.

Justin is a gift from God.

Nicely done JJ! Maton makes great guitars and that's exactly why TE plays one! 👍👍🎸🎸

I liked the Mini the best. Very spunky!

The tone of the Tommy model is amazing . The leader of the pack.

Wow the Messiah definitely lives up to its name. Sounds great and will only get better with age

You were having fun, and man do you deserve it.

Justin, I really appreciate that you played very similar riffs on all the instruments so we could really hear all the tonal palates of each guitar.

I can listen to you play forever! I love everything you do! ❤️

I didn't learn about Maton guitars until I met Tommy Emmanuel 👍🇺🇸 And now, I don't miss any of Justin's vids.....👍

The best sounding acoustic guitars. Incredible tonality. Thanks for this.

Super video. Have been playing more than 50 years, and until I heard Tommy Emmanuel play, I had never heard of this guitar brand before? I wondered to myself..." why isn't Tommy playing a gibson, guild, Martin or taylor? Well, now I see why lol. And for the record, Justin is a masterful player!

I love how guitars sing when you play them. It's like you have a relationship of love, respect and affection with them.

The Messiah has a heavenly sound, but all these guitars sound good in the hands which even make a cigar box or a shovel sound great.

Justin Johnson & Tommy Emmanuel. Both fantastic guitar players. Would love to see them jam together.

Messiah is beautiful, perfect sound

I don’t play an instrument, my biggest regret . Still I watch this with so much love for your love and skill. Thank you for playing for us

"Man that's got a great response" Exactly what I thought when I auditioned an EM325C (bog standard, satin finish, AP4 pickup) sometime around 2010 and became a lifelong Maton fan, reinforced by some of my favourite players endorsing them too. Great feel, great tone, great build quality. Cool to see someone with JJ's skills noodling around on some really lovely guitars, cheers for the vid mate

Je ne parle pas anglais, mais je suis admiratif devant le talent de Justin, car je ne suis qu'un très modeste guitariste de folk blues et je vois tout le travail qu'il faut faire pour simplement s'approcher un peu du jeu de Justin...! Félicitations l'ami .

I am surprised the AP5 pickup system was not mentioned. I have a much more expensive Taylor which I love but will always grab my Maton if I am plugging in. I have the older AP4 pickup system and it is fantastic.

What a master class we just got

Hey, very interesting. I enjoyed learning of these guitars. Maybe there is some hope for my old incredibly shrinking hands. Thanks a million, m.m.

Love my EBW70C wish I could play it like that!

Damn, Even on my crappy headphones at work these guitars sound amazing.

👁️✨👁️Aloha Justin⚡🤘

I really believe Justin is the most under rated guitarist alive.He has a clarity in his sound.

I have a Maton from 1972, plays beautifully and sounds so warm.

Justin Johnson and Maton guitars ... it was destined to happen ... Synergism defined ...

Discovered a Maton EBG808TEC Tommy Emmanuel guitar a month or so ago (of which I hadn't heard of before). Was truly impressed with the guitar. Well worth checking out.

They all sound amazing!!! That cedar top was calling my name!

Nice Chops! Those are some nice instruments!!

My favourite player. The Justin Johnson. So awesome and inspiring you are. Always stellar content,and playing I’d refer to as otherworldly.

Absolutely love my Maton in Burgundy colour with a cutaway. Bought it 22 yrs ago for AU$2.5k brand new and it’s only just starting to show a couple of those awesome aged relic cracks in the paint. The tone of that wood is just so beautiful now. Never to be sold only inherited ❤

Hello from Melbourne Australia we’re maton guitar are made I bought a southern cross cut away 1996

I have a Maton S70 dread, & a SRS808c. Both are beautiful instruments to play & have a lovely tone. Play them every day, & they just better & better. Wish I could make them sound like you do, but hey, we’re all different. Loved the review man, & as always, your playing. Cheers. TimC from Brisbane Australia.
