I hope you enjoy this “acoustic guitar shootout” between my Taylor 314 CE vs Maton EBG 808 C (Michael Fix Model)
I have been playing my Maton Michael Fix model Guitar faithfully for about 11 years now, but in some of my recent videos, I’ve been drawn to my Taylor 314 CE.
Many viewers asked “did you switch back to Taylor?” or “Where’s the Maton?”
No, it’s not a “switch” I just like changing things up! And since I am home due to Corona Lockdowns, it’s giving me a chance to revisit some of the guitars in my collection!
In this video, I’ll compare the Acoustic properties of each guitar and also compare the Pickup / Preamp / DI sounds.

Great video Adam! Long time listener first time caller. I currently have a Tanglewood TW28CE and have been trying to convince myself (and wife!) to upgrade to the 314 (been saving for a while)…I think this video has finally convinced me….I don’t know if my wife will be happy about that 😉
