Maton Guitars EA808 Australian - 16551

The Maton EA808 is part of Maton's homage Australian series! This series of guitars are made exclusively of Australian timbers! A Bunya Pine soundboard accompanied Australian Blackwood back & sides give out a powerful tone with a punchy mid-range and sweet high end!

The fretboard and bridge are Desert Acacia wood, and the comfortable "C" shape neck is solid Blackwood! Top it off with wood bindings and a simple finish, and you get a guitar that is refreshingly natural. It is hard to imagine guitars with more stunning appointments and features in the Maton lineup!

Constructed in a Maton's unique 808 size, the EA808 Australian is a powerhouse in voice as well as beauty. With Bunya Pine along the top and braces, each strum produces a rich, well-balanced sound ideal for bright, softer and harder playing styles. Bunya Pine carries a higher mid output than Sitka. The fretboard and bridge feature desert Acacia wood, helping create a more complex voice.

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. The upgraded AP5-Pro microphone is direct mounted to the pre-amp casing with an adjustable swing arm, which permits easy final tweaking of microphone position to suit the individual artist's playing style.

Controls are at your fingertips, and their 'resistance curves' have been specially designed and manufactured expressly for the AP5-Pro. As a result, the Bass, Treble and MID are now much more 'linear' in feel. The FQ (Mid Frequency Sweep) now goes down much lower and has a much wider frequency band ( 600Hz to 2.4kHz ) to give greater control when targeting your specific sound.

From Maton Guitars website, "This classic guitar features newly tuned, scalloped braced tops with more refined solid select grain Blackwood back and sides. The backs have been radiused to help create a greater tonal spectrum with focus on classic Maton earthy tones resulting in more bottom end response. The Necks have been upgraded to solid Blackwood timber and in keeping with the “Australian” theme, now have a Desert Acacia (Mulga) fingerboard and Bridge. Finally the Australian series now comes with the NEW Maton UV cured paint finish – a finer coat for a finer tone. A new MOP Australian Decal adorns this exciting new guitar. (Can be ordered with a Bunya Pine Top to be completely made from Australian Tone woods)
 
The Australian Series is the culmination of over 50 years of building guitars from Australian timber. It showcases our indigenous timber at its best. Beautiful Blackwood back and sides combine with a premium quality Blackwood neck to produce a rich, well balanced tone. This uniquely Australian guitar sits right up there with the best the world has to offer."

Great for heavy chewers! Belgian Malinois Approved!
Color: E) 8-Pack 2.5" Balls (Yellow)
I bought these 6 months ago because my dog kept loosing his Kong balls. These were such a better price ball (but still had good reviews) that I thought I would give them a try. They are wonderful. After six months of chewing and chasing and playing with a Belgian Malinois, the two that I’ve gotten out are still in great condition. The bright color makes them easier to find, so none have been permanently lost yet. They are bouncier and a little bit lighter weight compared to the Kong balls of the same size, which I honestly appreciate because my maligator likes to shoot them at my feet. So far the material seems high quality and I feel safe letting the dog chew on it for hours on end. The 8 pack was cheaper than 2 Kong balls. A great deal for a great product!!

Durable, high-bounce dog balls that hold up well to energetic play
Color: D) 4-Pack 3" Balls (Yellow)
The Chew King 3-inch rubber balls have been great for active play sessions. The rubber feels thick and durable, and the bounce is surprisingly lively compared to many standard dog balls. They’re the perfect size for medium to large dogs and are easy for dogs to carry, chase, and retrieve. After repeated games of fetch, the surface has held up well without cracking or losing its shape. One thing that stands out is how easy they are to clean. Dirt and slobber rinse off quickly, so they’re ready for the next round of play. The bright color also makes them easier to find in grass or bushes compared to darker toys. For longer life, it helps to supervise play if your dog is a very aggressive chewer, since these are designed more for fetch than constant chewing. Also, rotating toys every few days can keep dogs more engaged and extend the lifespan of each ball. Overall, this is a solid set of durable fetch balls that provide great bounce and reliable outdoor playtime fun.

toughest dog balls in the world
Color: E) 8-Pack 2.5" Balls (Yellow), Color: E) 8-Pack 2.5" Balls (Yellow)
best balls in the universe. I have a 70# pit bull and a 120# presa canaria. All the other balls I bought lasted maybe 3 weeks, I have had these for over a year and play with them and the dogs 5-6 days a week. They still look brand new, They seem like they will last a year or so and they are both serious chewers. A presa has a bite force od about 525psi, twice a pitty

They worked out great!!!
Color: D) 4-Pack 3" Balls (Yellow), Color: D) 4-Pack 3" Balls (Yellow)
So far have been the solution we were looking for! I was extremely tired of the non stop destruction and order of large Chuckit balls for our high energy/high drive dog. For about the same price I bought four 3 inch balls to test out their durability and fit for the thrower. THEY WORK! Perfection! They even make a fun whistling sound as they sail through the air. They do require a tad more muscle in the thrower but that is not a problem. They have already shown to be WAY more durable. The 3 inch balls work in the large chunkit thrower. Super find.
