Description
The Maton Classic is a continuation of the former CS Classic model. The guitar has been revoiced to take full advantage of the tonal properties of European Spruce and Indian Rosewood.
The tone is sophisticated, rich and clear delivering the sounds we’ve come to expect from an elite instrument comprising these classic woods. The mahogany neck is shaped perfectly to provide an effortless playing experience, and the bound Ebony fretboard adds to the luxurious feel of this guitar.
The body and fingerboard are bound in white, with classic herringbone inner binding and rosette. The guitar is finished in clear gloss, which highlights the natural beauty of these quality materials.
As with all Masterbuilt models the bracing matches the soundboard material and each soundboard is thicknessed, shaped and scalloped to achieve the tonal and mechanical responses we are looking for with this instrument.
Maton Deluxe Hardshell Case by Hiscox IncludedThe Maton Deluxe Hardshell Case by Hiscox is included with this purchase.Responsibly Sourced MaterialsMaton has a deep respect for the natural timber and the sustainable management of wood species.
All controls are now at your fingertips – their “resistance curves” have been designed and manufactured expressly for the AP5 PRO.
As a result, the bass, treble, and mid-range are now more “linear” in feel. The FQ (mid sweep) goes down lower and has a wider frequency band (600Hz to 2.4kHz ) to give greater control when targeting your specific sound.
Tighter components
Miniature surface mount components allow the preamp to be placed on one PCB, making the complete system smaller and less prone to hum and noise pickup.
The rigidity of this smaller PCB means it’s less prone to develop problems with ageing. Because it’s bolted into position in the casing, the whole assembly is less likely to develop rattles with the constant movement and shipping expected of a performing musician’s instrument.
At a glance
The AP5 has been held in the highest regard for over a decade by players all over the world. It was with this in mind that we began development of its successor.
Better sound quality
Clarity and fidelity of studio-quality sound in a live setting with Maton’s AP5 Pro pickup system.
Linear feel to the controls
Effortlessly adjust volume, tone, and EQ settings, empowering you to fine-tune your acoustic sound.
Expanded mid-sweep range
Covering from 600Hz to 2400Hz ensuring your guitar’s mid-range shines through with clarity.
New microphone system
Our updated mic system boasts unmatched definition in tonality and simplifies usability.
Battery upgrade
Battery choice is 2 x AA batteries, why? Energy density. Two AA batteries have almost twice the stored energy of a 9-volt for approximately the same space requirement, therefore giving the performer a much longer operational life before battery change.
The AP5 PRO also has improved battery terminals – both terminals are identical and now made from phosphor bronze – the same material used in ship propellers. It’s extremely corrosion resistant so should the batteries develop a leak the terminals can be easily cleaned to restore them to “as new” operation.
