- My next Maton, which I bought new and still own, is a mint condition 1964 DC 545 'crab claw' double cutaway. The serial number is 231. This seems like a low number and it would be interesting to know how many were made.
- I've just inherited an old (I'm guessing early 70s) Maton FG100/6, and am wondering if I can find out the year based on the serial number (#1020)? I've emailed Maton, but I'm not expecting to get a reply. I've got no intention of selling it (I'll play it!), but am interested in knowing the date, and if it's worth anything.
From a small backyard workshop started in 1946 Maton Guitars has grown into a truly great Australian success story. Currently Maton employs 70 people and remains 100 per cent family owned and operated.
