I'm getting one of these. I don't even know the cost.
In the market for a travel guitar, or your name is Ed Sheeran?

I thought about getting one for the grandkid that is interested. He's only 2 right now, so... I figured he can learn on it first and then if he doesn't see the need to keep it then I have a travel guitar.

If you want a guitar for your grandkid check out Loog guitars. They make three string guitars for little kids. Set it up in an open tuning and the kid can go to town. They’re much more durable than a small acoustic like the Yamaha. And there are Fender and Gibson models so they can rock with with a guitar that looks like one of yours!

These responses are making me take a long look in the mirror about my guitar choices.

The black looks good. I will probably go with the natural.

I didn't say it was a kiddy guitar, just a convenient size guitar that a kid could learn on. And grandad could snatch up when he later wants a full sized guitar. Kids don't think about taking guitars on vacation.

In short, I want one, but I can only justify it by using my grandkid.

I was kidding. It was funny that you wanted one for a two year old, and jp mentioned 3 string guitars for little kids.I didn't say it was a kiddy guitar, just a convenient size guitar that a kid could learn on.

I have (believe it or not) TWO travel guitars: A Go-Guitars Go Grande Walnut and a Journey Overhead carbon fiber. We have one car - a Mazda 3, which isn't exactly known for spaciousness - and I've used them not only for air travel but for car trips where I don't want to leave a guitar case on the backseat where it's visible.

The carbon fiber is a great idea.

It really is. It's sort of heavy for an acoustic, but it will definitely take a lickin' and keep on tickin'. We're actually traveling back to the Bay Area for a couple of weeks tomorrow and I will be bringing it along as my carry-on.

Is it here yet?

No. It's no rush. We've had some big expenses to start the year. Garage door opener/springs. Furnace. A couple of smaller ones. I'm checking out some carbon fiber options too.
The Natasha Asteroid carbon fiber is probably a piece of junk. It looks cool. The reviews are good.
The technology is probably cutting edge, and ahead of its time.

I spent the extra $100 and got the Piezo pickup. I will take this one when we go camping. We go every month and a half or so. It should come by Wednesday.

I have one of those hunnerd dollar Gretsch Jim Dandy’s.
If it rains on it it’s no great loss.

I will check that out. I have a cheap, Chinese, carbon fiber, acoustic electric on the way. It got good reviews, and it will be great for those camping trips.
The action is supposed to be low out of the box.
