    Default Maton Restoration

    G'day,

    I have an old Acoustic Maton that I would like to restore. The neck has collapsed into the body under the tension of the strings. How would I begin to repair this?

    Cheers,

    PMack.

    Can't really help you without pictures.

    Have you built or repaired an acoustic before?

    Is it a nylon string or a steel string?
