From Our Research Team:

A Compact, Go-anywhere Traveler, with a Full-sized Neck!

A true travel guitar shouldn't simply be a scaled-down version of a real guitar. That's why Traveler Guitar brings you the purpose-built Pro-Series. You'll love how easy it is to take this solid-maple wonder with you while you enjoy its full-scale neck and great playability. Plug the Pro-Series into your amp and get big, full electric and acoustic sounds from its single-coil and piezo pickups. Want to listen on the go, with no batteries required? plug in the included stethophone headset and you won't believe how great this travel axe sounds!





Can a travel guitar feel and play like a full-sized instrument? Yes, it can - and the Pro-Series is proof! This amazingly compact guitar features a 24-3/4"-scale neck, topped with a rosewood fingerboard. The detachable lap rest includes volume controls for both pickups, plus a 3-way selector switch that allows you to choose between acoustic and electric tones - or blend both! What's more, you can attach the lap rest on the upper bout of the guitar, for a super-compact setup that stows easily in its included gig bag.

So, how do you enjoy personal playing time anywhere, without batteries to drive headphones? Travel Guitar created a unique solution: they included stethophones, which allow you to hear the sound of the guitar absolutely naturally! That's right - these 'phones use the same principle that a doctor's stethoscope uses. These stethophones plug right into the Pro-Series, and you get stunning sound - the natural way!

Generally, a solid travel, portable, practice guitar. What has surprised me is it's ability to stay in tune, and keep sustain.

Fun and well-designed

I bought this guitar AFTER a month-long trip to southeast Asia. Going on that trip, I'd brought a larger travel guitar by another manufacturer. Even though that guitar was small enough to fit in the... read more [+] overhead bin on the plane, Cathay Pacific has, as it turned out, a strict "no instrument policy" (!!) and I was forced to gate-check it. When we landed in Hong Kong, my travel axe was destroyed. I decided then and there that I would do two things. First, if I ever got control of my OWN airline, I would enact a strict "No Briefcase Policy". Second, I would get a smaller, solid-bodied, more rugged travel guitar that would be small enough for me to pack IN MY SUITCASE, so I could get around the capricious rules of the accursed airlines.

A month on the other side of the world was mind-blowing, but with no axe to play, write, and practice with, I was blue.

So I have my Traveler now, and I have to say, it's pretty great. The scale is a good playable size -- not the perfect size for me but it DOESN'T feel like a toy. The overall design is efficient, bordering on genius -- the elimination of the headstock, with the strings curling back under the guitar past the saddle saves a lot of real-estate. I like the detachable leg-rest a lot, although I find myself just as often taking that off and just using a strap. I have yet to use it amplified, but I just get a huge kick out of the stethoscope vibration pickup!

Really, the only peeves I have with it are the tuners and the cable that goes from the guitar to the leg-rest. The tuners, because of their location and layout, are awkward to use and take some getting used to. The cable that connects the electronics to the leg-rest goes in WAY TOO TIGHT. As I mentioned, I do like to detach the leg-rest often, and I hope that over time the amount of force required unplugging that cable doesn't damage it. Those two minor things aside, this is a great little axe that's very well-suited to air, car, boat and bus travel. It's been a pleasure having something to write with and practice on in hotel rooms, that's recordable thanks to its electronics and yet very acoustically quiet so it won't disturb anyone!! Too bad I got it after the big trip and not before. Oh well....next time, this baby's coming with me!!

Do bear in mind that because this guitar is a solid-body, its actual un-amplified, un-stethoscoped sound is NOT LOUD. So don't be surprised if you take it to a beach party and you get drowned out around the campfire. If you want to be heard in those situations, you'll need a little amp. But for personal playing and practice, amplified playing, or recording, wherever you are in the WORLD, the Traveler is really the bomb. close [-]
