Why I play these guitars || Maton and Avalon guitar reviews
My first vlog about the acoustic guitars I play most often, which are @matonguitarsand @AvalonGuitars:
Maton Custom Shop “JT” model
Avalon Ard-Rí L2-310
Maton TE1
I paid for all of these guitars with my own money, I am not endorsed by any of the companies mentioned and I am not being paid by anyone to review them. This is purely for enjoyment!

Thank f . Someone showcasing brands other than Gibson , Martin , Taylor etc ! Bloody good on ya ! And yeah, they sound absolutely fab . Need to get an Avalon, or a Maton . Great demo.
I know its a late comment, but man, your Deep River Blues snippet was awesome. As good as Doc. In my opinion.
Good morning John, just love your playing and presentation. I recently acquired a used EBG808 Artist. It has some years on it (2009 APmic model) I cannot believe the sound and playability as it grows on me. I have Martins and a Collings as well. This one is a keeper too. I just really love it!
Are you paid or get free guitars from Maton and Avilon? Its only fair we are informed
Great presentation of 3 different guitars. Personally, I liked the tone of the Maton TE1 the best – very crisp and clean yet warm. Thanks John. Have you tried the Australian Cole Clarke guitars? They are also awesome value for money and give the Maton's a serious run for their money.
Finally got around to watching this video in full – very informative though pretty high end guitars. Are there any guitars you recommend from earlier in your progress that might suit dedicated hobby players? Thanks anyway-all the best!
Great guitars although not a huge fan of the strap button location on the Avalon 🙂
LOWDEN ???? ???? ????
Returned to give this video another look!
Wow that Avalon !
I own a Lowden but always wanted an Avalon too.
Thank you John great all round video introduction to Maton guitars. (I'd never heard of them) and you've given a real eyeopener demo. GREAT
SRS808 sound was good? from????????
This is a great video ( for me) purely by a chance meeting, ( Guitarist :Vinnie, I didn't get his full name) I played on his Avalon A380 4 days ago , wow , a fantastic Guitar, I'm now looking into buying an Avalon
I have owned an Avalon L 10 jumbo for about 10 years. I had hoped to love it, but I can never really bond with it. It is much too bright, and the nice part is it is clear, but it has no warmth, no lower, mid range thump that I love in my other guitars, such as my Larivee and my Martins.
Your maton is class John !! Jesus I have a maton srs808 mine don’t sound like yours ????hard to beat Avalon or lowden !!I have a 1972 guild John that works in lowden has it doing a full neck reset and set up !! Thank you for your videos especially the raglan road tutorial your a legend lad cheers stay safe !!! Brian Armagh!! I have a Avalon sliver series if that counts as an Avalon but it sounds top for a cheaper model there’s not many sliver series left out there ????
I have a 6 and 12 string Avalon Guitars they are both L32s and they are incredibly guitars I’ve had them about 22 years now and they just sound better with age the tops have gone that lovely amber colour and they are so well made and sound and play amazing and never had to adjust anything on them.. Got a Maton SRS70C Another Great Guitar nice thin neck very well balanced and intonated and yes the AP5 is a MEGA pickup ????????????⭐️❤️…. Great Video enjoyed this ????????????⭐️????
The bass is really evident on the Avalon (though they all sound great). I have the jumbo L2-320 and like yours, it has a mystical 3D sound. Did you try other tonewoods? I love mahogany guitars but
not sure how the Avalon 'hog guitars are (tbh amazaque
sounds great… A good mix of mahogany and rosewood)
Three beauties John, and you make them your own. Love the big full sound of that Avalon. Got myself a jumbo Martin and putting the K&K pure mini into it after reading the reviews. Slán agus adh mór say hello when you’re home.
Sweet video, man. I'm getting a new (my first high end) guitar in about 2 weeks.. And I've had an Avalon and Maton in my cart recently so this was spot on.
I prefer the avalon, more bass and tone
