Get Impressive Acoustic Tones, Wherever You Go!

A travel guitar shouldn't simply be a scaled-down version of a regular guitar. That's why Traveler Guitar brings you the purpose-built Ultra-Light Acoustic. You'll love its full-scale neck and great playability, and the full, detailed sound you get from its Traveler Piezo Pickup is astonishing. That said, this 3-pound, 28-inch-long acoustic-electric guitar is small and lightweight enough to take anywhere — it even fits in airline overhead bins! If you're looking for easy portability, you can't go wrong with the Ultra-Light Acoustic.

Plays like a full-sized instrument

Even though it's easily streamlined enough to travel with you in the most cramped situations, the Ultra-Light Acoustic carries a full 24.75-inch scale length. You won't have to worry about trying to adjust to the smaller feel or narrower fret spacing that's often a concern with similar designs. Add to that the detachable arm and leg rests, and you won't even know you're playing such a compact instrument.

Piezo pickup offers tonal diversity

The Traveler Guitar Ultra-Light Acoustic guitar is wired for sound. The under-saddle piezo pickup delivers a wonderfully balanced amplified acoustic tone. Piezo pickups have become legendary among players who love the fact that they are designed to pick up the vibrations of the strings and translate them to great acoustic tone.

Proprietary In-Body Tuning System

While the Ultra-Light Acoustic uses standard tuning machines, its proprietary In-Body Tuning System relocates them into the guitar's body. This eliminates the need for a headstock while providing you with a full-scale playing experience on an instrument that’s 31% shorter and 43% lighter than a full-sized acoustic.

Traveler Guitar Ultra-Light Acoustic Features:

  • 3-pound, 28-inch-long acoustic-electric guitar is small and lightweight enough to take anywhere
  • Small enough to fit in an airline overhead bin
  • Full 24-3/4-inch scale length means you don't have to compromise on feel
  • Eastern American hard maple neck-through body delivers awesome sustain
  • Traveler Piezo Pickup provides impressive acoustic tone plugged in
  • Heavy-duty gig bag included

Traveler Guitar!

Bought this wondering how an electric guitar can sound like an acoustic... but sure as anything, with just a little eq-ing it can indeed sound like an an acoustic electric! This guitar is very well designed and extremely well built. I was impressed with how well-designed it is. Now, this guitar won't mimic the exact sound of a high-end hollow body acoustic|electric; but does a very impressive job nonetheless! You can easily use this Traveler guitar as your main acoustic. I love this guitar!
