Maton Guitars SRS-808C Custom Black Pinstripe - 17017

Arriving Late August - Custom Black Pinstripe Finish!

The Maton SRS-808 incorporates solid Victorian Blackwood back and sides and a Sitka Spruce top. The SRS-808 has simple appointments, and combines the warmer, full tones of Blackwood with the broad frequency range of Sitka.

A forward shifting of the X braces and the shifting of scallop peaks to nodal points around the soundboard help to enhance the vibration of the top. The shifting of the X braces also allows the inclusion of a second, parallel tone bar which allows the scalloping of both tone bars, and spreads the load while reducing mass.
 
Adjusted bracing heights as well as a locked 15 foot radius for the arch of the back, gave the plate resonance separation they were looking for between top and back.
We now have the full, open, lower frequency response as well as a crisp, well defined treble response.

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

Using the ‘Sweep-able Mid’ controls. Mid-range is sweep-able from 600Hz to 2.4kHz and can be cut or boosted within this range. As a general rule we start out with all settings ‘flat’ then alter them to achieve the desired tone & presence based on the venue or recording environment. For example, an open, natural sound can be achieved by setting the frequency control at 1.4khz and the boost/cut control at 5db. Alternatively, for a ‘thick’ lead sound boost your Mid's by 5db and set the frequency dial at 1.7kh.

Functioning luminosity (duration to be tested) of hands (not seconds) and 5-minute tics d. Day/date display e. Clear setting instructions in english f. Sweep second hand 2. Packaging was not fancy, but effective; watch arrived in perfect shape with no visible defects: Flat cardboard box in cardboard sleeve with embossed logo, fitted foam box liner, plactic film around watch, protective plactic discs on crystal and stainless back. 3.

The black watch is quite handsome, if not elegant, with a simple, understated blue dial and gold markers; the photos in the listing were a faithful representation 7.

Second hand alignment is off by a quarter of a second from second marks b. Black case is excessively shiny; probably is not ion-coated and finish may not be very durable, but was preferable to me over the gold, which I am sure will mar easily c. Watch has a snap-on (not screw-on) back and minimal water resistance Bottom line, I seem to have received exactly what was offered, which is a lot for around $30

The watch Is beautiful, keeps time & date well and seems to be made of quality materials
Color: A1 - Blue / Brown
First off I have not had a watch in 20 years since I use my phone for the date and time. I decided to try using one again and love not having to retrieve my phone to check the time. The watch is beautiful and I love the look of the gold with the blue face and brown band. It works great and appears to be of the same quality as the Seiko watches that I use to own. I tested the face and tried to scratch a small area with a sharp object. I would not scratch so it is either glass or a crystal. the metal seems to be of good quality and the band is comfortable and feels like leather. Overall I am happy with it and will update this review if the situation changes.

Nice looking watch with day and date
Color: A5 - Black
This watch has a nice black face and looks like it is high quality considering the price. I guess time will tell how durable it is. The only thing I am not as pleased about is the band which is stiff and is not as comfortable as another watch that has a leather band.
