Guitar to fit in hand luggage...?
What's Hot
Dear All,
I think I may be looking for the impossible, but I would like to find a playable acoustic guitar that is less than 56cm long and could fit in an airline handluggage bag. Some interesting guitars like guitalele and tacoma papoose, they look great, but too big... - Any ideas?
best wishes,
Tom

56cm is absolutely tiny. Really? 56cm? Crikey.
My twopence worth: a Tacoma Papoose neck is only held on with two beautifully-designed bolts and comes off easily with an allen key. The neck is 51cm long, the body 38cm. If you can accept that you'll go through some strings putting it together and taking it apart again, then it assembles into an incredible-sounding little thing that doubles as about the most useful studio secret weapon you can imagine. I have one and adore it. It's a special instrument. I've never come across anything that compares.

I have one, though I've yet to travel with it - it comes in a back pack, assembles in about 30 secs.
Sounds pretty good too.
