Matao was a low priced, entry level musical instrument brand produced and imported between 1967–1983, and exclusively sold by the Music West franchise chain in Washington, Oregon, Nevada, and Northern California. Matao guitars were made in Japan and Korea Matao by the Hoshino factory.[1][2]
Matao also manufactured other string instruments including bass guitars, ukeleles, and banjos,[1] and various band instruments for school orchestras including drums, brasses (trumpet, cornet, and trombone), strings (violin and cello) and woodwinds (clarinet, oboe, and saxophone).
