Maton Guitars Redwood Series RM-808  - 17089

   Maton Guitars has been adding new models to their catalog in 2025, featuring several new robust models. We are pleased to add their new Redwood Series to our offerings! Here’s the description from the Maton website in Australia:

 

“With the introduction of the Redwood Series, Maton has found a new voice in the world of acoustic guitars.

 

There is something magical in the tone produced by the combination of the Redwood (Sequoia Sempervirens) soundboard and Tasmanian Myrtle (Nothofagus Cunninghamii) back and sides. The Redwood is plantation grown and sustainably harvested from the Otway Ranges in Victoria, the Myrtle from our longstanding supplier in Tasmania, who also provides us with the timber to build the Joe Robinson Signature model.

 

Tonally, Redwood can be compared to Western Red Cedar, but there is a stronger treble presence and dynamic response than typically found in Cedar. Tasmanian Myrtle (or Tassie Myrtle as we Aussies call it) has a smooth, Maple-like tone, and when combined with Redwood seems to add a little extra warmth and sustain to the overall tone of the instrument.

 

The result is intriguing. The tone coming from these guitars is complex. All the frequencies we expect are present, but there is something more going on as well. The blend of overtones and the dynamic response to slight variations in playing technique, offer new possibilities to the player. This is a guitar that is hard to put down.”

 

The Maton AP5-Pro Electronics

In its 5th generation, the AP5 Pro features an internal Microphone and 6-Piezo bridge input, with controls that allow for blending of both microphone and piezo levels prior to sending the actively combined signals through the well engineered pre-amp.

The highly selective cardioid microphone system allows for much greater microphone level before feedback in live environments. This upgraded AP5-Pro microphone is direct mounted to the pre-amp casing with an adjustable arm, which permits easy final tweaking of microphone position to suit the individual artist's playing style.

Using the ‘Sweep-able Mid’ controls. Mid-range is sweep-able from 600Hz to 2.4kHz and can be cut or boosted within this range. As a general rule we start out with all settings ‘flat’ then alter them to achieve the desired tone & presence based on the venue or recording environment. For example, an open, natural sound can be achieved by setting the frequency control at 1.4khz and the boost/cut control at 5db. Alternatively, for a ‘thick’ lead sound boost your Mid's by 5db and set the frequency dial at 1.7kh.

Very soft and cozy
Color: Grey, Size: Queen (90" X 90")
I bought this for the bed, but the second it arrived my husband claimed it. It is so incredibly soft and cozy, but lightweight enough that you don't overheat. The grey color looks great with our decor, and I love that it doesn't get static- like other fleece blankets. It also washed really well and didn't shed at all.

Like to snuggle up in soft warm blankets? This one's for you
Color: Grey, Size: King (108" x 90")
I purchased this after the one I had previously received as a gift was ruined. That's how much I love this blanket. It doesn't get that weird rougher texture after washing that some of these fleece blankets get. It's ridiculously soft and so warm and comforrtable. The sizing is totally accurate and I slept like a toasty warm baby using this product. It's a blanket so use is self explanatory. Put it on your bed or couch or wherever you want and snuggle in for warmth and comfort. It's a very high quality product for a very reasonable, even affordable price. If you like high quality products that everyone can afford then this is the blanket for you. This even improved the quality of my sleep. It does have some stretch, but it's not overly stretchy. Believe me, this blanket would be a welcome addition to your home.

Very good but not amazing
Color: Bright Gold, Size: Queen (90" X 90")
Not the most amazing blanket possible but pretty close. The only negative I can think of is that it's a bit thinner than I expected, besides that it is quite comfortable, smooth, soft and visually appealing.

SO SOFT & cozy without being super heavy
Color: Grey, Size: California King (102" X 96")
I’m picky about blankets because some fleece ones either feel cheap or make you way too hot, but this one is actually really nice. It’s really soft, washes well, and has that cozy feel without feeling overly thick or heavy. I got the California King size and it’s actually big enough to fully cover the bed without constantly fighting for blanket.

My perfect summer blanket
Color: Grey, Size: King (108" x 90")
I had 0 expectations for this blanket and I was pleasantly surprised. This blanket is very lightweight, much like the novelty throw blankets you find in the kids section. It's very soft, compared to chinchilla fur. Incredibly soft and it didn't make me hot. Nor did it keep me cool. For me, it's the perfect blanket for summer weather. So far, the quality seems really nice and it fits my needs as a king size.
