Fantastic live instrument

The best pickups you can get on the market. Downside is they're built quite heavy to resist feedback so they consequently don't resonate as well.

In an interview with Acoustic Magazine, he says this about his Maton:

"I am playing a Maton which is an Australian make of guitar. My dad bought it for me in 2007 and it’s a very sturdy guitar. It’s very good for touring because it has a good strong construction, I have been touring with it for the last two years, and it has just had a real pounding."
