With a traditional body style themed on the small bodied guitars from the 1920’s and 30’s, this gorgeous nylon strung travel guitar delivers a focused, punchy, assertive tonality with high string-to-string definition and size defying volume, from its compact parlour sized body. Â
This beautifully crafted instrument has the perfect comfy palm-friendly neck for small hands, whilst a generous fingerboard width makes this acoustic guitar, ideal for other contemporary styles and for electric and steel-strung guitarists making the move to classical. Â
The Vintage nylon strung Viator is constructed using sensibly harvested tonewoods of the finest quality, selected for their striking looks and exceptional sustain and warm mellow tones.Â
Tight-grained Sitka spruce is renowned for its broad dynamic range and the perfect choice for the soundboard, whilst a body crafted from sapele produces a strong bass response, midrange and top end definition, enhanced with internal custom X scalloped bracing.Â
Eye catching features include a unique laser etched soundhole rosette and matching design around the top, open headstock design, open-geared smooth action machine heads and functional pin style bridge design for effortless string changing.Â
The Vintage Viator Travel Guitar, visually stunning, sonically brilliant.Â
