A Scaled-down Dread for the Guitarist on the Go
Clocking in at under three pounds with a 34-inch length, Traveler Guitar’s Redlands Mini acoustic guitars deliver full-size sound in an eminently portable package. Beginners and pros alike will enjoy traversing this guitar’s purpleheart-topped nato neck, thanks to the short 22-inch scale length. And while the Redlands Mini is certainly smaller than your typical dreadnought acoustic, its scaled-back dread-inspired shape and spruce top deliver impressive volume and a clear, touch-sensitive tone that tackles everything from fingerpicked passages to cowboy-chord strumming. You also get precise and accurate 14-to-1 closed gear tuners and a deep cutaway to facilitate upper-fret finesse. All in all, this Redlands Mini shines as one of the most playable, portable, and formidable-sounding acoustic guitars that Sweetwater has to offer!
Lightweight, short-scale, and primed for portability
Designed for players on the go, Traveler Guitar’s Redlands Mini series provides the best of a traditional acoustic dreadnought experience with a scaled-down 22-inch scale length. Compared to the 25.5-inch (or so) scale found on most dreadnoughts, this guitar’s 22-inch grants a more comfortable feel, easier bends, and less distance between each fret — ideal for the still-growing young guitarist who is challenged to stretch their fingers between the frets on a long-scale instrument.
Furthermore, Redlands Mini guitars clock in at just under three pounds, and often come in at under four pounds — even with a gig bag. Plus, the reduced scale length and body size results in an overall length of 34 inches. Whether you’re on the school bus or checking in your instrument to the overhead storage bin, the Redlands Mini’s small stature and light weight make it the ideal 6-string traveling companion.
