Maton SRS60C Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar Maton SRS60C Cutaway - All Solid Australian Timbers, All Solid Australian Tone. Built for the rigours of the road. All solid construction with Queensland Maple back and sides with an A Grade Sitka Spruce Top, Queensland Maple Neck, Rosewood Fingerboard and Bridge. The SRS60C comes with the AP5 Pickup System, which has become the benchmark for live acoustic sound over the last decade. PLEASE NOTE: Models produced after June 2024 will be using a Bunya Pine top instread of Spruce, please see statement from Maton copied below: Effective July 2024, the following Maton models will transition from their current spruce (Picea) soundboard models to Bunya Pine (Araucaria bidwillii). This applies to the EM-6, S60 & SRS60C models. Throughout our long history (est. 1946) we at Maton have continuously endeavoured to source, test and pioneer the use of locally sourced sustainable timbers. In the late 1990’s this process led us to successfully pioneering the use of Bunya Pine. Indeed, to this day we successfully use bunya on the Performer as well as Australian series guitars. In furthering this strategy of increasing the Australian component throughout our range, we are transitioning the above models to Bunya soundboards. In arriving at this decision, many elements of our business and those related were considered. We have always pursued a consistent strategy of, where possible, sourcing local product that is sustainable and encourages the use of Australian labour, whilst not compromising our high quality. We believe this transition is true to all of these deliverables and importantly, reduces the impact of the ongoing trend being encountered in the sustainable sourcing of imported tonewoods including Spruce.
