    This morning I got a tour around the Maton guitar factory (you guys should know of them!), and all I can tell you was it was the best 90 minutes ever!
    Pics will be up soon, most likely tomorrow or Saturday, im an Imgur album...

    How cool is that !

    So you got to see some of the best production Luthiers in the country working at one of the best Guitar factories around.

    Hope you made a real pest of yourself

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    I sure did! You should come down to Melbs with Miss Fiona sometime and check it out! And they have some SM stuff, which I liked, especially the Fret Arbor!

    Haha, well, fly here, and book one (when you have time of course!!!)
    I got a tour from the daughter of the founder, which was neat, and I met Andy Allen, the guy in the custom shop!!!
