Maton Guitars EBG-808-TE Tommy Emmanuel - 16238l

If you've ever seen Tommy Emmanuel perform you will know he is one of the world's greatest guitarists, and one of the most inspirational musicians on the planet.

It takes a great guitar to meet the demands of such a great player. Designed in collaboration with Tommy Emmanuel, the TE series guitars are an outstanding tribute to Tommy's musicianship and Maton's superior craftsmanship. Built to Tommy's specifications, the TE series provides the huge tone and performance you would expect from a guitar bearing his name.
 
Tommy looks for a guitar with superb tone, capable of the most delicate expression as well as the most ferocious attack. The neck must stay true regardless of the rigors of international travel and the guitar needs to perform at its peak, from Rome to Nashville, to Sydney!
 
The Tommy Emmanuel models feature a Mother of Pearl block inlay on the 12th Fret, engraved with "C.G.P." The acronym stands for "Certified Guitar Player," a title bestowed on Tommy by Chet Atkins and held by only 3 other guitarists in the world - John Knowles, Jerry Reed, and Steve Wariner.

The Maton EBG-808-TEC bears an light aging toner on the AAA Grade Sitka Spruce top. A light Vintage Amber stain on the Queensland Maple back, sides, and neck could easily be mistaken as Mahogany.
 
A rain forest hardwood from Northern Queensland, this timber is light, strong, and visually striking. Queensland Maple, while originally used as a Mahogany "substitute", is extremely well balanced with an even response across all frequencies. If you are looking for the secret to Maton's great tone, this is a good place to start.

The proprietary Maton "808" body shape is similar, though slightly smaller that the US OM Model. However, the body depth of the 808 is substantially deeper at 4-7/8". This is significant, as moving the top and back further apart enhances the bass element within the tonal character of the voicing (bracing technique), complimenting the different wood combinations

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 1 to 2khz 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.

Love all the Barkbox toys
Color: Christmas Consuela, Size: Large Dog
This is our third "Consuela"! Our dogs LOVE these toys, and they are the most durable we can find for our heavy chewers. They really like the ball inside as well. Highly, highly recommend these toys. I won't be buying other toys anymore, just barkbox.

My dog is a toy destroyer
Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog, Color: Consuela the Cactus - Large, Size: Large Dog
I’ve had a hard time trying to find toys that my dog, Zara loves because she’s actually very picky. Ive gotten plenty of Kong toys that are well known to be indestructible but she wants nothing to do with them. Then I got her ropes and that seemed to be good for a while until she was getting sick in the middle of the night from eating all of the string. Stuffed toys aren’t good because she’ll rip them within seconds and eat all of the stuffing. I felt like I’ll never score the perfect toy for her. I found the three layered cactus toy and decided to give it a go. It’s clearly designed to be ripped and destroyed to get the ball in the middle which is actually really cute and fun to see all of the layers. The cactus arms have stuffing and of course that’s the first thing she went for and ate. I had to watch her and make sure I took the stuffing away before she ate it. And before I knew it, she ate half of the first layer fabric lol once she got through the first layer, all she’s been doing is walking around the house with the toy in her mouth. But now she’s tired and passed out on the couch from all of the fun. This toy won’t last long with a toy destroyer but it sure does give them something to do and it’s a cute toy. I do recommend!!

My Dogs' Absolute Favorite Chew: Tough, Flavorful, and a Lifesaver for Boredom!
What sets the Benebone Wishbone apart isn't just its durability—though that's impressive enough—it's the thoughtful design that caters to how dogs actually play and chew. Crafted from super-tough nylon infused with real bacon flavor (not some artificial nonsense that fades after one gnaw), this wishbone-shaped toy is ergonomically curved for easy gripping with paws or mouth, making it perfect for aggressive chewers who like to toss, carry, and battle it around. The three prongs give them multiple angles to attack, which keeps them engaged for hours without getting bored. For my Goldendoodles and Golden Retriever, who are all large-breed goofballs with endless energy, the large size (about 7.5 inches long) is spot-on—not too big to intimidate, but substantial enough to withstand their enthusiastic chomping. We've had ours for over two months now, and while it's showing some honorable battle scars (tiny grooves from their teeth, which actually make it easier for them to grip), it's nowhere near splintering or breaking. Compare that to the Nylabones we've tried, which either splintered too quickly or lacked any real appeal—these Benebones win hands down every time.Flavor is where this toy really shines, though. That real bacon infusion isn't just a gimmick; it's embedded throughout the nylon, so even as they chew deeper, the savory scent and taste keep coming. The more food-motivated Goldendoodle goes absolutely feral for it—drool flying as he parades it around the living room like a trophy, grumbling possessively if the others get too close. The female Goldendoodle prefers a more playful approach, flinging it across the room before pouncing back in for wrestling matches that leave her curls even more disheveled, while the Golden Retriever settles on the rug for long, focused sessions that help him unwind after fetch marathons. It's hilarious to watch them "fight" over it (in the gentlest, most sibling-rivalry way), but what's even better is how it redirects their energy. No more shredded couch cushions or nipped at ankles during zoomies—these bones have cut down on destructive behavior by at least 80%, giving me more time to relax and less time playing fetch with toy remnants.Safety and quality are top-notch too, which is crucial when you're dealing with heavy chewers. Made in the USA with non-toxic materials, it's free from BPA, phthalates, and all that sketchy stuff you worry about with imported plastics. The company even encourages responsible use: supervise play, especially for puppies or super-aggressive types, and replace when the ends wear down (though ours are still going strong). At this price point for a toy that lasts weeks instead of days, it's an absolute steal—I've already ordered backups in peanut butter flavor to rotate in and keep things fresh.If your dogs are anything like mine—energetic, mouthy, and in constant need of occupation—this Benebone Wishbone will be a game-changer. It's not just a chew toy; it's a boredom buster, a dental helper (those ridges get the tartar going), and a source of pure joy for your furry family members. My dogs love these bones more than their walks some days, and that's saying something! Five stars all the way—highly recommend grabbing one (or three) before your next Amazon order. Your sanity (and your furniture) will thank you.

Truly Durable - No Joke, These Actually Last
I purchase these for the rescue I support, and they live up to their “durable” claim - no joke, these truly last. Durability: These are genuinely built for aggressive chewers. While the edges do eventually get rough with heavy use, the fact that they last a while with determined chewers is impressive. Most toys don’t make it that far. Design: The wishbone shape gives dogs multiple angles to chew from, which keeps them engaged longer. The ergonomic design works well for powerful chewers. Made in USA: Knowing these are made in the USA gives me confidence in their quality and safety, whether for rescue dogs or personal use. Flavor: The real bacon flavor keeps dogs interested and coming back to the toy repeatedly. Pros: ∙ Truly durable - actually lasts ∙ Made in USA ∙ Real bacon flavor dogs love ∙ Wishbone shape for multiple grip points ∙ Perfect for aggressive chewers ∙ Edges get rough eventually but toy holds up ∙ Rescue regularly uses these ∙ Better longevity than most chew toys Bottom Line: When a chew toy genuinely lasts with aggressive chewers, that’s noteworthy. Yes, the edges get rough with extensive use, but the toy itself holds together far longer than most. Excellent for rescues, shelters, or anyone with power-chewing dogs. Highly recommended!

Great Bone for aggressive chewers but watch the wear & tear
I’m extremely happy I found Benebone Bacon Flavor Large Wishbone for my puppy who is an aggressive chewer. As the packaging reads this is a durable nylon. My puppy chewed the bone down to what you see in the picture within 3 days. It’s easy for him to handle. He loves the bacon flavor. He immediately took to it as soon as I gave it to him & off he went to work. I did check with my Veterinarian first to inquire if this was a safe bone & she assured me it was. She did advise to be aware of the wear & tear on the bone & toss when I felt it was time. I honestly wouldn’t of known when. I’m happy I took the time to read the inside of the packaging this bone came in. It referred me to the benebone website which showed pictures of bones-which I attached- that reflect the wear & tear & when it’s time to toss. There are the 3 categories of “Light Wear,” Moderate Wear“ & “Heavy Wear.” You’ll see the written description next to each. This I found very helpful, therefore I wanted to include it in my review, in hope of helping you. By the looks of my current bone it’s in between moderate & heavy wear. The large is costly, I feel, but it 100% occupies my puppy. It’s his favorite “toy.” I’ve only had small shavings come off since he’s chewed it. Nothing major to clean off the couch where he lays. Stuffed toys are a thing of the past now. I’ll continue to buy once it’s time to toss this bone because he loves it so much. I also love that Benebone is Made in the U.S.A.! I definitely recommend! A heads up! If you click on their store on the main page of this bone you’ll find other shapes of the nylon bone as this one. This Benebone won’t disappoint. Take the time to read the packaging. It’s informative & cool!
