I have played some dreadful Matons here and there over the years, but they were just bad setups and unloved, I guess.

A friend stopped by on his way home from a guitar shop a few years ago to show me his new solid wood Maton dread and at first I thought he may have been drinking..heavily.... but it was the SRS70c blackwood/sitka and it looked and played great....oh oh, plugged it in, wow! I didn’t want another dread, but when I saw someone talking about the TE and the (cheaper) SRS808....blackwood/cedar....well, it had to be mine!

I must catch up with the guy with the dread to see if his guitar and pickup sounds too much like mine......err....
