Travel guitars?

thedonutman · 02-22-2008, 05:56 PM

I saw this guy today playing this little headless travel guitar, it wasn't a Steinberger, but it was headless and basically the same length as the strings. He said he got it from Guitar centre when he was in America or something. I didn't get a good look at it, but I do remember it had a detachable arm rest.

Anyone got any recommendations for an affordable headless/travel guitar?

I'd prefer it to be headless, since those uber-short scale length travel guitars with headstocks just look hard to play. And also affordable, since one of those licenced Hohner Steinberger copies costs around £300, which is precisely how much I paid for both my RGs........and it just doesn't seem worth it.

I think Yamaha has a pretty inexpensive headless travel guitar, but they aren't the greatest axes.

Actually, this is the one I was thinking of (TRAVELLER)...the Yamaha has a headstock, just no body.
