"Hi Guys!!

I thought it’s about time I put something on here , seeing as my “ baby “ has been one of the best things to happen to my music!!

The sound is awesome, it looks so great and I wouldn’t be without it.

Ivan & Claire, you are amazing people, you have been so generous and supportive to me that I cannot find the words to say thank you enough."

Cheers for now.

"My guitar looks and sounds awesome! I have had great feedback from all who have played it!

It is exactly what i was after and it was so much fun to be involved in the production process.

Looking forward to more great times to come! You Rock! :)."

" Hi Ivan. Just a short note to thank you for my new guitar, I love it! I've had my dream guitar in mind for a while now, but didn't think that I'd ever get it because it would have cost me several times the price of my Mattschoss Semi Acoustix.

Thank you for your patience during the design process. Although most of our discussions were via email, your design drawings and willingness to accommodate my requests made it easy to get the great result that we have.

I can play anything on it, from the rocking tones of Led Zeppelin to the smooth acoustic sounds of Neil Young. Not only have I saved the cost of an electric acoustic, but now I don't have to change guitars during a set. No more re-tuning or changing leads.

I would recommend a Mattschoss guitar to anybody contemplating purchasing a guitar. They will get an instrument which is the equal to any brand-name guitar, in appearance, finish and sound quality.

Should anybody wish to contact me about purchasing a guitar from Mattschoss Guitars, I'm only too happy to speak to them about it."

Thanks again Ivan.

Cheers,
Tara

"I believe Ivan Mattschoss builds the dream custom made guitar, The craftsmanship and detail that he puts into these guitars are truly world class.

The Lockhart Series I is a dream to play, built strong, sounds amazing and looks unreal. The Lockhart Series II is a machine that will blow the mind of any guitar player.

No matter what you want Ivan is the man to talk to.
An amazing family creating an amazing guitar".

"I have been singing for approximately eight years and during that time have played various guitars.

Eighteen months ago I won a Golden Guitar for Best New Talent 2003 for my debut album 'Rhythm Of The Highway' and was approached by Ivan Mattschoss and the professional team from Mattschoss Guitars, to play one of the many guitars from their range.

Although Mattschoss Guitars are new to the market, I have found them to be very friendly and committed to meeting the needs of guitar players.

During the various gigs I have performed at, I have played a number of Mattschoss Guitars, both acoustic and electric, and have found that they feel great and are a very comfortable guitar to play.

The sounds produced by these guitars, I believe, are some of the finest you will find anywhere, and I include two of Mattschoss' Guitars amongst my professional instruments.

I would like to extend my thanks to Ivan and Claire Mattschoss for their ongoing support and I would highly recommend this quality Australian made product to any musician seeking a better sound."

      "A guitar with custom specifications, the sound I've searched for and looks to kill. I found MY guitar and sound in the Mattschoss Mystique - a wild guitar with endless possibilities.

Everything I wanted down to the nuts and bolts came standard in this guitar. Ivan Mattschoss let me run wild with a few ideas, and he came back with what I refer to as a 'dream guitar'. Lindy Fralin pick-ups , handmade body and neck, a custom 'silverburst' paint-job and even a 5 way pick-up switch to mix in with an acoustic piezo pick-up for when I need that sound.

There isn't anything this guitar won't do, and it's an amazing guitar to play. The handmade neck is smooth and fast, the action is fantastic and the body makes you feel like you're a part of the guitar.

Soundwise, you can get any tone from this beast. I love the Lindy Fralin pick-ups through my AC-30 amp, but the great thing I've found about this guitar is I can take it anywhere, plug into whatever nice tube amp is on stage, and I've still got my sound. The guitar is a great head turner, with it's unique 'silverburst' paint job, it attracts attention even before the crowd hears it's sound.

Mattschoss guitars offer something you won't find in guitars hanging on a shelf at your local music shop - soul. Ivan handcrafts, maintains and believes in these guitars. He stands by his customers and has helped me out a great deal with my sound. You won't find a better custom built electric guitar, or a nicer family behind them.

Rock on Ivan, I'm proud to play your guitars."

"I met the whole family and found not only some of the most knowledgeable guitar people, but some of the nicest people I have ever met. Genuine and friendly, their passion for what they do shines through in their words, and their faces when they speak about any part of their passion.

If you want to enjoy the whole custom creation experience, as well as the joy of one of the worlds best guitars, please go talk to the Mattschoss family."
