Book a Travel-sized Getaway with the Escape MKIII Nylon!

When living life on the go, your classical guitar can be tricky to travel with. The Escape Mark III nylon acoustic-electric offers a solution with a compact, high-quality guitar that travels effortlessly. This nylon acoustic-electric manages to include authentic mahogany and black walnut tonewoods while remaining so slim that you can stow it comfortably in an airplane's overhead compartment. Once you’ve de-planed, the Escape Mark III’s 25.5-inch scale length doles out smooth playability with impressive resonance and a full-sized feeling. Practicing with the Escape Mark III is also a breeze. A Shadow under-saddle pickup and preamp system lets you connect to amps and recording devices, whereas an integrated headphone amp, auxiliary input, and onboard tuner let you brush up on skills or enjoy near-silent practice anywhere. When you’re ready to lighten loads with a road-tested masterpiece, the Escape Mark III nylon acoustic-electric guitar from Sweetwater is everything a player could want.

Real tonewoods kept light as a feather

The Escape Mark III’s solid mahogany body, mahogany neck, and black walnut fingerboard are expertly formed into a minimalist travel-style body shape that measures only 30 inches in total length. These tonewoods impart authenticity, resonance, and sustain for a full-bodied sound that even discerning ears can appreciate! Unlike the synthetics used in many travel instruments, the Escape Mark III’s traditional tonewoods provide a performance that’s instantly familiar. The Escape Mark III’s 25.5-inch scale length minimizes any difficulty adjusting, as the playing surface is practically the same size as what you’ve grown accustomed to.

Built-in practice and performance tools

Travel-ready guitars let you polish skills with no limits, and the Escape Mark III’s comprehensive suite of onboard tools fuel quality practice without the fuss. The Escape Mark III’s Shadow pickup system not only aids with recording and onstage performances, but also equips you with a built-in headphone output, a 1/8-inch aux input, and a tuner. The aux input is useful for sending backing tracks to an amplifier, or it can be used alongside the headphone output for near-silent practice. And, with 2-band EQ and Presence controls built into the Shadow pickup, compelling amplified tones are always within easy reach.
