Product Description

Here's what Blackstar say about the Carry-On travel Guitar:

The Carry-on travel guitar is a portable travel-sized guitar that plays and feels like a serious full-sized instrument. Constructed using single piece Okoume bodies and necks and featuring a coil-splittable mini humbucker, the Carry-on travel guitars combine true tone and feel beyond their size.

The guitar is supplied with an award-winning amPlug 2 FLY Guitar headphone amp in the Carry-on Standard pack. Getting great tone on the go is now available to all travelling guitarists.

DESIGNED BY THE FINEST GUITAR LUTHIERS

The Carry-on travel guitar was designed in the UK by Blackstar in association with the master luthiers at Gordon Smith Guitars UK. The resulting play and feel is like no other travel size guitar.

Using a single billet of wood for the body and neck means that the grain will be an even match across the instrument and allows the guitar to reverberate freely and evenly – a glue join would have been a barrier to reverberation. The body and neck are made from single prices of Okoume, a bright, lightweight tonewood with a more open grain than mahogany. String through body design for excellent sustain and stable tuning.

Key Features

  • Compact size electric guitar that retains all the playability and feel of a full-size electric guitar.
  • The finest materials are used throughout like the single piece Okoume body and neck with a set neck construction.
  • String through body design for excellent sustain and stable tuning.
  • Amazing tonal versatility from the coil-splittable mini humbucker.
  • 1:14 ratio sealed tuners make tuning easy and stable.
  • Every guitar has a premium finish including binding around the body and a 3-ply scratchplate.
  • Using 12-54 string gauges creates the tension and feel of a full-size electric guitar.

Really nice little travel guitar. I use it when I go away in the campervan with some Boss Waza headphones. Decent quality, nice sounding pickup and the coil tap reall helps with tonal variation. Lost a star because there are a few sharp fret ends.
