Traveler Ultra Light Acoustic-Electric Travel Guitar w/ Gig Bag

Sharing the most basic components with the flagship model Pro-Series, the Traveler Ultra-Light offers players a full-scale guitar to take on the road when weight and size requirements are strict. This guitar comes complete with an acoustic piezo pic...
List Price: $399.99
Amazon Price: $279.99
Customer Review: A very nice little instrument...
This is no Strat. It is no Dreadnaught. But it is a very nice little practice guitar. Fit and finish make it a real musical instrument, not a toy. Stays in tune. Sounds very good through a Rowland Micro Cube amp. I haven't found a satisfactory headphone amp yet.
Customer Review: A neat, compact package
I've had various travel guitars- I have a Taylor Big Baby, and used to own a Martin Backpacker- but I was looking for something that was more portable than either- something small enough to pack inside a suitcase and carry on vacation. I wasn't looking something with great sound, or something stageworthy, just something with a full sized neck to practice on when I was away from home. I tried one of the Travelers that comes with both piezo and magnetic pickups at a local guitar discount chain, and I liked the feel (though not the painted finish); it was the only model they had, so I decided to do a buit more research into the range. Back home, I looked at the Traveler Guitars web site, and this model caught my eye- no electronics, piezo pickup only, but it was light, tiny, and came in an attractive natural finish. And the price was right, too. I decided to chance it. It arrived this morning, and I've been playing with it most of the day. Fit and finish is very good, if simple, and the feel of the neck is excellent. The neck in particular shows a lot of care, with all the frets carefully hand-filed and shaped- no sharp edges here, like on so many inexpensive imports. Traveler is either doing a lot of QC on these guitars when they arrive, or they've found a really good shop to produce them. Despite the odd shape and lack of a headstock, it's easy to play. I found that a strap was more comfortable for me than the clip-on lap support, but thanks to the light weight, even without the strap or the lap support it's easy to hold. Plugged into a standard guitar amp- a Tech21 Trademark 30- the sound was not very good- too much of that piezo twang, and an uneven balance. But plugged into the high-impedance (10 megohm) input of my Acoustic Image Contra, the sound was surprisingly good- better than a lot of much more expensive, piezo outfitted instruments I've tried. Using my K&K Preamp with a short (6") patch cord also delivered a much improved sound. In summary, I'm very happy with this guitar (in fact, I've got in on my lap as I type this). It's tiny enough to travel everywhere, and with the right amplification, it sounds very good. In fact, I'm thinking the Traveler bass guitar might be a nice addition to the collection, too.

I like it. Has decent action, easy to play, and acoustic tone is pretty good for what it is. Sounds great when played with a Roland Micro-cube. Paid $300 for a used one including Ovation hard case. Don't know what they are talking about with "mahogany top" in the product info. This guitar has a solid cedar top.

Price: $548.00
Customer Review: I love my Epiphone
After buying this guitar new, I had to have the neck adjusted now it is so nice I couldnt be more pleased with the sound and action of this guitar. Also the inlays are so beautiful and the golden Grover keys really set it off. Beautiful!
Customer Review: Great for $300!
I bought this guitar from Music 123, a little hesitant about buying a guitar that I had never heard. But as soon as I got it I was amazed by how good it sounds, specially plugged in. The thin body makes it very comfortable to play and the strap attaches at both supports on the body which makes it more comfortable than guitars that where you have to tie the strap to the top of the neck. The great looks of this guitar alone make it seem worth more than $300. Overall, I would say get it if you don't want to spend more than $500 for a takamine or yamaha (which sound better, but cost a lot more). Good for doing rythm guitar or leading worship or something like that.

Seagull Coastline Series Grand Parlour QI Acoustic-Electric Guitar (Natural)

The Seagull Coastline Series Grand Parlour QI is an acoustic-electric guitar that's great fun to play. The Coastline Grand Parlour produces a surprisingly big sound. Using computer modeling to optimize the internal bracing and soundhole design, this Seagull guitar represents an intriguing mix of old and new. The Coastline Grand is beautifully complemented with the addition of the optional Quantum I EQ system.Seagull Coastline guitars are outstanding values. The back and sides of Coastline series guitars are made from a 3-layer lamination of wild cherry wood. With a sound that lands somewhere between the mellow tone of a mahogany guitar and the bright sound of maple, wild cherry has proven itself to be an excellent tone wood. Grown locally, wild cherry is also an ecologically friendly choice for guitar construction. Coastline series guitars feature very smooth necks made from silver leaf maple.The Godin EPM Quantum I electronics system is simple in design and outstanding in performance. This single source system features an exceptionally responsive saddle transducer carefully matched to side mount electronics with rotary volume, bass, and treble controls. The electronics and controls are packaged in a small and easy to use format complemented with a finely crafted pewter cover plate. In combination with the transducer, the EQ control range and frequency content have been specifically contoured to provide a very rich and full sound reproduction resulting in performance seen only in far more complex systems....

Johnson Carolina Series II Acoustic Guitar Solid Rosewood

Carolina Series guitars have the authentic tone, design and feel of an American tradition. Designed by master craftsman Greg Rich with quality control standards set by Scott Zimmerman, each guitar is handmade from hand-select woods and features pristine workmanship and a full, booming tone. Carolina Series II guitars have the same excellent features as the Series I, but with solid back and sides in mahogany or rosewood, and a one-piece mahogany neck. The solid options for back and sides give the guitar a true bluegrass sound and body that's perfect for flatpicking. From traditional folk to progressive bluegrass, there are features on every Carolina to appeal to your acoustic style. These guitars feature a solid Engelmann spruce top, back and sides made of African mahogany or East Indian rosewood, classic fittings such as butterbean tuners and hand-cut abalone/M.O.P. detailing. The big, well-balanced tone on these guitars is exceptional especially because of the pre-war style construction. The fully scalloped forward-x bracing is a 1930's style that adds strength and resonance to lower registers and more clarity to the highs. Players of any style will definitely hear the difference in this all-solid pre-war style acoustic!
