General

The ESM10 is the Elementary Series Marquis model from Mayson. Its slimmed down body form delivers a faster, more immediate sound response suited to fingerstyle guitarists, while the width of the sound box will give the chord-work of all strummers that necessary warmth.

The ESM10: The Wood

The solid Engelmann spruce top is what sculpts the super-fast response of this acoustic while the supporting layered mahogany sides and back shape a warm and friendly character. Here, Mayson really have used the best quality tonewood possible and then painstakingly glued three layers together to create each panel. This level of care and attention is directly reflected by the quality of sound produced by this instrument while a bone string nut and bridge saddle only enhance the already direct, warm tone. The whole is coated in satin lacquer for a deep, semi-gloss finish that feels supple in the hands and Indian rosewood binding completes the highly refined ESM10 acoustic guitar.

Mayson Guitars

The combination of modern guitar construction and traditional techniques make each and every Mayson guitar a joy to behold and to hear. Its elegant design always suits the tone of the instrument, which is refined and unique. A Mayson guitar sounds like no other and every model included in the Mayson Elementary Series comes complete with its very own padded luxury gig bag.

Mayson Elementary Series ESM10 Acoustic Guitar with Gig Bag
Wrote the following about Mayson Elementary Series ESM10 Acoustic Guitar with Gig Bag
Je n'irai pas par quatre chemins, cette guitare est une affaire en or pour qui souhaite un bel instrument, confortable et polyvalent et avec lequel il est possible de jouer de nombreux styles avec une ergonomie et un rendu sonore inespérés à ce prix. Je pense déjà à offrir la Mayson M3 pour mon épouse et je vais contacter BAX pour un devis. Pour ceux qui ont le temps et la patience, explications ci dessous:



Tout d'abord je pense utile de préciser que je joue depuis 20 ans et que mon niveau, s'il est loin d'être celui que j'aimerais avoir, me semble suffisant pour savoir évaluer la qualité d'une guitare. D'autant plus que j'en ai possédés qui valent 10 fois le prix de celle là, et que je dispose toujours d'une Guild, une Yamaha et une Eastman qui sont affichées 3 à 4 fois plus cher actuellement.

Qu'est ce qui rend cette Mayson si unique à mes yeux? Voici:



Le format tout d'abord, à mi chemin entre une OM ou 000 type Martin et les populaires Grand Auditorium que je trouve pour ma part inconfortables car pour la plupart ce ne sont que des dreadnought avec une taille plus fine mais tout aussi imposantes au niveau des "hanches" en terme de largeur et d'épaisseur. Ici Mayson semble être parti d'une 000 mais l'a faite légèrement plus grande en gardant globalement les proportions géniales à mes yeux de ce format 000 créé par Martin. Le confort de jeu est pour moi encore meilleur.

La qualité de fabrication ensuite est à des kilomètres de ce que l'on trouve d'habitude à ce prix (avec une housse de qualité de surcroît!) et est du niveau de ce que fait Taylor par exemple. Un petit tour sur le site du constructeur ou sur la vidéo de l'usine vous en dira beaucoup sur le sérieux de la marque.

La conception et le son enfin, que je qualifierai d'avant garde avec un barrage interne "évolué" et un rendu sonore original et très plaisant. A ce sujet, ne vous attendez pas aux graves d'une Martin D28, mais plutôt à un son précis et équilibré avec tout de même de la profondeur et beaucoup de résonance des graves aux aigus. On comprend vite que la guitare est avant tout conçue pour le jeu aux doigts, mais le jeu au médiator même type "flatpicking" reste très agréable grâce à la dynamique de l'instrument, notamment sur les cordes graves.

j'ai souvent lu qu'une table en bois massif est préférable au plaqué mais en réalité j'ai toujours préféré le son des guitare 100% contreplaqué aux entrées de gamme avec table massive. Cette Mayson me montre enfin ce qu'il est possible de faire avec une caisse en plaqué/ table massive lorsque la conception et la fabrication sont bien au rendez vous.

Le manche enfin, est plutôt large mais son profil type Taylor conjugué au format de la caisse le rend facile d'accès.

En conclusion voilà, pour le budget d'une cagette de grande marque comme on en voit trop, une guitare conçue avec passion, fabriqué avec un vrai professionnalisme, et prête à vous accompagner de nombreuses années.
