Few names mean more to Australian guitar players than Maton, and the FG150 is a true piece of local guitar history. Introduced in 1964 and built for more than two decades, this Australian-made 12-string folk guitar pairs a dreadnought body with a spruce top, maple back and sides and a rosewood fingerboard with mother-of-pearl dot inlays. This used 1970s example has the full, shimmering sound that a good 12-string is loved for, making it perfect for jangling folk and country rhythms, open-tuned songwriting or adding sparkle to a recording.
Please note that this guitar’s finish has lots of wear and tear, including significant finish loss on the upper bass side of the top, marks and scratches throughout, and wear to the back, sides, pickguard and bridge. Its history is unknown and the Maton signature isn’t visible, so please check the photos carefully for a closer look at its condition. For the right player, it’s a characterful slice of Australian guitar-making heritage.
