This guitar is in fair condition and its case in less fair condition. Maton has advised the it is one of only 175 made in 1951. This hand carved big arch top guitar is awesome but not, suitable for my small collection and it's not mine but, an old friends. Looking for comments please. The Maton F10 is an acoustic Guitar manufactured by Maton.

Maton F10 Guitars For Sale

If you were a school-kid back in 1972, taking guitar lessons, then chances are you were playing one of these! Maton churned out two-trillion of these guitars from 1965 to 1975, well, actually, it was 8186; but that is a high number for a Maton guitar model as most of their electric models, for instance, were only churned out in hundreds and sometimes less than a hundred! This is one of the survivors! This is quite a nice guitar to play and has a sweet classical guitar sound. I’ve heard a few of these over the years and must say Maton were good at building them as they still have a nice tone. (Nope, it’s nothing like a Ramirez!) It features some sturdy production ideas like the bridge being screwed down at the factory, so it’s never coming off and a set of decent tuners that work. I particularly like the way they painted the edge of the top to make it appear like the guitar had binding similar to their the top-shelf models. This one shows quite a few chips in that bit of paintwork along with scratches, bumps and some grazes but still looks nice and functions well. Comes with a cool old cardboard case.
