Published on Jul 13, 2020

Maton: Australia's Guitar Since 1946, Australian company Maton has produced string instruments of exceptional quality, using handmade methods & discovering new tone woods from locally sourced timber. This attention to craftsmanship allowed the business to thrive in a guitar market dominated by big American companies. Maton guitars have been the instruments of choice by international & Australian musicians alike, including Tommy Emmanuel, Missy Higgins, Gordi, Archie Roach, Keith Urban, Josh Homme (Queens of the Stone Age), George Harrison (The Beatles) & Keith Richards (The Rolling Stones). The Wadih Hanna Collection Instrument & art collector Wadih Hanna has been an avid guitar player since he was 12. His passion for Maton instruments began when his wife Lucy gifted him a Maton EM325C acoustic guitar for their wedding engagement. Meticulously researched, the Wadih Hanna personal collection is a comprehensive documentation of Maton instruments over 70 years by a consummate guitar curator. Powerhouse Museum
