The Peter Maffay Signature STD at a glance
Fans who missed out on the limited special edition now get another opportunity to get their hands on a genuine Peter Maffay acoustic guitar. In addition to the noble matte black design, the brand-new signature model impresses with its comprehensive functionality, which is completed by a custom-made pickup system. At the same time, the solid wood top provides a balanced and powerful sound that easily asserts itself in strumming and Pickings. At the same time, the flat neck is particularly enjoyable for both beginners and advanced players, as it has a very grippy profile that harmonizes excellently with the slight radius of the fingerboard and the slim 43 mm nut width. Thus, all 20 frets can be reached and operated comfortably. This is supported by the generous cutaway, which allows optimized access to the high positions. At the same time, the black die-cast tun ers guarantee precise tuning of the six steel strings, while the compensated saddle and nut ensure clean intonation over the entire 650 mm scale. The visual highlights are undoubtedly the Fame Forum headstock with signature inlay, the wooden bindings and the white custom laser engraving on the top.
Now also in series. The matte black Fame Peter Maffay Signature STD in Grand Auditorium design.
The 5-piece mahogany neck is equipped with two sturdy ebony inserts and is extremely comfortable to use thanks to the thin matte finish
Structure and woods
In order for the acoustic guitar to produce a balanced yet powerful tone, the mid-sized Grand Auditorium body is made of a solid spruce top and a laminated mahogany body. With the help of internal bracing, this combination develops warm bass, midrange and clear treble frequencies that are quick and cover a wide area. At the same time, the 5-piece mahogany neck with ebony inserts promises comfortable playability across all 20 frets set into a sturdy HPL fingerboard.

Hardware and design
The compensated bridge inlay and the 43 mm wide bone nut ensure clean intonation of the strings, which can be easily and precisely tuned with the help of the black Fame die-cast tuners. Peter Maffay's signature in the form of a filigree inlay sits enthroned between the tuners, perfectly matching the mother-of-pearl binding of the special headstock. In addition, the headstock is equipped with a Peter Maffay custom trussrod cover.

The top
To generate a clear and balanced sound, the top is made of solid spruce. Spruce wood is ideally suited for the construction of high-quality musical instruments due to its fine grain and superior sound characteristics. Below the soundhole is the initial "M" in white colour, which tastefully contrasts the matte black colouring of the body. The top is bordered by a filigree, multi-layered rosewood binding, which perfectly matches the rosewood bridge and the delicate, light-coloured soundhole rosette. To protect the top wood from scratches, an extensive checkerboard is positioned below the soundhole.
The laminated mahogany body provides warm basses
Back and sides
To enrich the bass frequencies with a warm note, the back and sides are made of mahogany. The extra thinly layered material harmonizes excellently with the solid top wood, so that there is no need to fear any loss of sound. Thus, the guitar gains substance in the bass and midrange even with a light touch of the strings and produces a broad sound carpet in a rapid response. The individual components of the back of the body are also limited by wooden bindings so that the overall appearance turns out very coherent and premium.
That stands out! Here volume, bass and treble can be controlled on the instrument
Electronics
To round out the Peter Maffay Signature model in terms of functionality, an extensive custom pickup system is built into the body. The pressure exerted by the strings on the bridge inlay and the piezo element underneath directly picks up the acoustic sound of the acoustic guitar and sends it to the amplifier. In addition, the output signal can be individually adjusted via three top-mounted potentiometers. Thus, the overall volume, bass and treble frequencies can be adjusted. The active system is powered by a 9V block battery, which is located in a battery compartment in the bottom frame.
Each Fame Peter Maffay Signature STD guitar features a personalized soundhole label with Peter's signature.
Label
A specially designed label is glued into the sound hole of the guitar, which depicts the silhouette of Peter Maffay as well as his autograph.
