Tony’s Acoustic Challenge – The New Way to Learn Guitar Family Forums Small Wins New Travel guitar for travel and practice

  • New Travel guitar for travel and practice

    Posted by Cadgirl on September 13, 2021 at 1:34 pm

    I just received a used Washburn Rover travel guitar. SMALL body but with a full size neck. I can reach the frets down to the 20th fret. Now… I can do all those exercises that require me to stretch down to those high notes. I do have to give a special thanks to @Loraine for mentioning the site http://www.shopgoodwill.com which is where I found this little beauty.

      Glad to hear you like it! I feel like I gave it a new home. Going by the serial number it looks like a 2003, It was well taken care of.

    Thanks @Bill_Brown , @stevieblues , @Michelle-PSL , @Loraine , @davefive : I think it will work fine for me. The case is rectangular shape with styrofoam cutout the size of the guitar. Looks like I can toss it in the back of the jeep and it be well protected. Even with it being such a small body it gives plenty of sound. Very happy with my find.

      Thank you @johnny67 It’s different to play because the box is so small. But to just pick it up when sitting on the couch is awesome. I know it will work into my traveling really well. The case even thou it’s a soft case it has fitted syroform around the guitar. I actually think I could drop it off the house and the case (and guitar) would withstand the fall.
