Default My new guitar - mp3 of the guitar

Here it is my maton messiah. Australian company that make very very nice acustic guitars.

It has solid rosewood back and sides. Eboney fretboard and bridge with mother of pearl inlays. Grover hardware, and a AAA skita spruce top!
all this traslates into some serious tone

http://h000625ee612c.ne.client2.attb...w%20guitar.mp3 recored jsut today, a bit of an odd sounding clip. i used a bit of a spnish theme to it.

Damn that's alot $2,800 I guess it's not too bad since it's hand made and customized though. I mean my Trumpet cost me(my parents) $2500 and My Baritone was $4500

Also those seem to be high quality "strings"

possessed_beaver you dont like the photos?!! i used a cannon d10 with an L series macro lens lol.
the reason it is focused on one spot is because i used about f2.8 i think. high quality lens

the strings are about $40 a set and they are bronze coated in a pollywebbing so that the sweat from your finger dose not corrode the metal.

OMG! Beautiful guitar man, I intend to buy a good guitar too but further, by now I'm still learning and I play like shit, so a cheap one do well for while.
Nice pics, thanks for sharing
