All-round a good-sounding, feather-light instrument. And it looks cool.
I bought this for no real reason other than I thought it looked pretty cool. That said, I travel a lot, so why not buy one? definitely worth it! Only a few trade offs worth considering: there's no volume or tone control locally, so you're completely dependent on your amp in modifying.I've yet to fly with it so my four stars are based purely on what I know to be beneficial: it's feather-light, very compact and will definitely fit in overhead compartment on flights (if your airline lets you take on ofc). If you place it in hold, it will fit in most suitcases and you can pad the thing with towels etc pretty easily.I genuinely expected it to be fairly awkward to handle, given that it doesn't have any real body to rest your forearm on, though i've not found it to be an issue at all. There will always be more powerful guitars at around the same price, but it more than meets expectations for its intended purpose -something easy to carry around.

Basic but well made and excellent playability
I already had a Traveller nylon strung guitar and found it perfect for working on some flamenco pieces. But I also needed something to practice electric techniques e.g. hammers and pull-offs that weren't working too well on nylon strings and the wider neck. I chose this basic model as I didn’t need a volume control or headphone amp of dearer models. So this is perfect for keeping my fingers limber when I'm away. There are cheaper brands but playability and feel are crucial and I've been very happy with this company

Disappointed
Ordered this as I wanted a small guitar to keep at work for playing on breaks etc, but ended up returning it.Pros:-Its mainly a great basic design (apart from bits listed below) and couldn't be any smaller with a full scale fretboard etc.-It seems well made with a few questionable flaws.-Very nice case and really would be great to put in a suitcaseCons:-Really didn't like the neck, it seemed quite thick to me (my normal guitars are a professionally set up Harley Benton LP copy, and a Fender Acoustasonic) - I would have thought this would have had a slimmer neck.-The action was quite high, which maybe could have been dealt with, but I didnt get that far with it.-There were a few questionable design aspects I didnt quite get:-The bits on the back holding the tuners stick out about 20mm, which they have to do, but I feel the ends could have been curved AND they could have been fitted with countersunk screws - these 2 things would make it more comfortable.-Where the strings come off the rollers, there is what looks like a cheap bit of velcro stuck as protection to the body - again maybe more thought on the design here and this looks like an afterthought-Hanger - just a bit of material but attached with a cable tie- again, looks cheap on what isn,t a cheap guitarAll just my own personal observations and I have read a load of reviews from people that love them, but this particular guitar isnt for me

Small and light, but full size fret board
Great guitar. V light and handy case. No volume control, but surprisingly good sound from pickup

Disappointment
The sound and action is really good very easy to play it would have been better if I got the red one I ordered instead of the black one that was delivered

Great travelling companion
Amazingly compact and a great travelling companion. Virtually noiseless when playing without any amplification. The snap-in metal rest is a bit flimsy but works well. The traveller case looks like a gun case so be prepared to answer questions when going through airport security.Overall I love this product for what it is.

Great Guitar for the travelling salesman
I had bought the Jammy for travelling and it was virtually useless. I found this one and it is perfect. So compact. Fits under the seat and the overhead of a plane no problem. The travel case is good except it looks like a rifle which scares me when walking through European airports where the army patrols with machine guns!The tuning pegs are a bit awkward but it works. Action is good and the guitar is quite playable. I totally recommend it for putting in practice on the road. Can't wait for the pandemic to end.

es lo que buscaba, una guitarra de escala completa lo mas pequeña posible para llevar en avion, a la oficina.conectada a amplificador suena muuuy bien.perfecta para practicar en cualquier lugar.

Impressive
The action of the guitar is amazing and it's compactness makes it ideal for the traveling musician. The only design flaw, which is more aesthetic is the flimsy look of the tie-on for the strap- surely there's a better approach. This means I will play it sitting down and strapless as standing up with a strap feels risky. Despite that it's an amazing instrument.

convenient small size for travels.
1) Good = The guitar arrived well packed, strings were in tune ready to create music, convenient small size for international travel.2) Not so good = In comparison to normal guitar, the traveller guitar is more difficult to play because of the lack of resting surfaces for the right arm forearm and right-hand fingers
