This small travel guitar is made in China.

The handle is a compromise between a handle and a handle folk classic. On a pitch shorter, it is also narrower than a conventional stick, Transportability requires.

UTILIZATION

The neck is quite nice.

The interface is weak given the small size of the fund. In fact it is unplayable without the strap, and I had to put a strap button under the heel to keep it centered. That way, it becomes playable.
It is extremely light.

Access to acute is a delight, and we add two more boxes though!

The sound is okay, given the volume of the box. When it is recorded with a microphone, you get a full sound reminiscent of a mandolin and nylon string. But "dry", the sound is enough to work, and not very powerful. Besides, this is not the goal, and this intimate side can play in many situations without disturbing his world.

SOUNDS

I use it mainly for travel, see the work during breaks. I have already recorded one of songs on my website, and the result is amazing! I use it to emulate the sound of a mandolin ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have since 06-2010. She accompanies me on the road.
I tried that here. I had used a small travel guitar Telecaster, but the non-standard tuning and the small size of the boxes repelled me.

I love: its weight, portability, price, finish, correct, sound quite distinctive and usable!
Like least: The lack of ergonomics, the handle a bit too narrow, poor quality of the original strings.

Value for money: 7 / 10.

I would do this choice, and anyway for the price it is not stolen ...
