Maton Guitars Troubadour Traditional - 16848

The Maton Troubadour is perfectly suited to those who pour their heart and soul into their music, whether you’re crafting intimate ballads, storytelling through song, or composing the next great anthem. The Maton Troubadour is your trusted partner.

From Maton Guitars website, "The mahogany neck ensures a smooth, effortless playing experience, allowing your creativity to flow freely. Available in Dreadnought, Mini, and Traditional body shapes, the Maton Troubadour adapts to your unique style, offering powerful projection or delicate balance, depending on your preference."

The Troubadour Traditional body style is the outcome of combining inspirational sources, the 75th Anniversary Traditional model and the Custom Shop CS Classic.

The Traditional and CS Classic model designs originated in the Custom Shop. Their body shape is more akin to a deep-body OM Orchestra Model design. It incorporates the bracing and design elements of the 75th Anniversary Traditional.

Visually, the Troubadour Traditional has borrowed its look from familiar Maton models, which includes herringbone inner binding, white outer binding, a mahogany neck, streaky ebony fingerboard and bridge, and a streaky ebony headstock veneer. The mahogany neck provides tone and stability and the ebony board and bridge add a little top-end brightness to complement the balanced bass of the Queensland Maple back and sides.

The top bracing is fully scalloped and includes the laser cut bridge plate originally developed for the 75th Anniversary model, designed to increase strength without adding weight.

This is a wonderful guitar that will suit all styles of playing, from light fingerstyle to full-blown strumming, and of course, it is fitted with Maton's brilliant AP5 Pro pickup system which will make the Troubadour Traditional absolutely unbeatable on stage.

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.

The Mitt is it.
I ordered the applicator because the Poli Glow Kit on hand was ordered and received a couple of years ago and it had the old chamois covered rectangular applicator. I could tell by looking that the mitt was the better solution. Also, the mitt was described well in an online video, so using it was easy to learn. The results were fantastic and I am very pleased with it. The only thing I would change is to add some more information on how often to replenish the mitt and with how much Poli Glow liquid. I wasn't sure if I was skimping or wasting the material. As I approached halfway, I couldn't tell if I was going to run out before I finished, so I tried to be as frugal as possible. Turns out, I had liquid left over.
