    • Perfect!
Size: Collapsible Classical/Electric Guitar Color: Matte Black
What an amazing guitar! My past experience in purchasing guitars included guitar setup by an expert local dealer. Unfortunately, Journey Instruments guitar dealers are not anywhere near my location. Instead, I went with the Internet and contacted Journey Instruments thru the Amazon product option called “Customize Product.” Amazon’s “Customize Product” opened a “Product Customization request” dialog with Journey Instruments where I explained that, because of my recent hedge trimming finger injury, I needed a gentle saddle setting for exercise and healing. Journey Instruments replied: “drop us a line and remind us of the 12th fret height you prefer and we'll install at that height for you.” I sent my spec.s and Journey Instruments responded “I'll have my team sand down a saddle and send it along.” I’ve begun my exercises on my new JI OC660M classical guitar optimized for gentle action and light touch. It sounds great and is as gentle as I requested. #6 action is set to 2.5 mm and #1 to 2 mm. I love the action and hear no artifacts even with my low-tension strings. As an engineer, I probably pay more attention to design detail than some other amateur musicians. The OC660M design is stunning. I never imagined I could own a lightweight and easily packed and carried acoustic travel guitar with such beautiful sound quality designed into its body. The magic, of course, is in the carbon fiber design and Journey Instrument’s precisely designed detachable neck. The body has a spring latch button to release/attach the neck and a very important recessed tightening knob that is used to pull the neck connection into its perfectly seated position. Here’s a tip. When I was experimenting with the two easily exchanged bridge saddles included, I learned that that tightening knob must be quite firmly tightened to accomplish accurate neck connection and consistent action. With my hedge-trimmer finger injury, I initially wasn’t firm enough. Now that I’m aware of the force needed, it’s not an issue, and I’m delighted with my Journey Instruments guitar. ... show more

    • Better for travel than the Martin 000 - Warm tone, compact size, indestructible material
Size: Collapsible Acoustic/Electric Guitar Color: Matte Black
We tested out small travel guitars by Martin and Gibson in a range of high end wood types, and nothing came close to the tone and playability for such a compact size. Assembled, this is larger than the smallest size travel guitar, thus generating higher quality sound, but folded it is even more compact, making it perfect for air travel overhead bins, camping trips and space limited road trips. We were skeptical that the carbon fiber would sound as warm as our favorite full size Martins, but this came close, just at a quieter volume. It definitely sounded less banjo-ish than the 000 or taylor baby. Add in a tiny pocket amp like the Blackstar Fly, and you get the bonus of both electric and acoustic options while on the road! Absolutely perfect for a travel. ... show more

    • Collapsible base great idea but needs work on sounding good
Size: Collapsible Electric/Bass Guitar Color: Black
I love the idea of having a collapsible base and it’s really neat how easy it was to put it together. Unfortunately, it didn’t sound very good. There was lot of tweaking needed to get it to sound decent but I was really looking for a base that we can use on the road. it also didn’t have any volume or tone control so you couldn’t mute it without having to use another device to mute. I personally think it would be better if they came up with an electric bass guitar that’s collapsible maybe they already do. I just don’t know about it. ... show more

    • Great travel guitar. Pretty good overall guitar.
Size: Collapsible Acoustic/Electric Guitar Color: Black Gloss
Firstly, this instrument delivers phenomenally as a travel guitar. It is very easy to use the collapsing neck, very easy to re-assemble, and the carrying case/backpack is good quality with some nice storage areas. In this review I'll cover a few things that I think would be useful to know as a would-be buyer. Weight. The guitar is surprisingly heavy. Not super heavy, but probably about a pound heavier than my wooden OM acoustic. I think people think of carbon fiber as lightweight. It certainly is when compared to comparable alloys like steel. But compared to the materials used in a traditional acoustic guitar, CF is a bit on the heavy side. Sound. Bass is really deep and loud. For me, I like it, but some might think it's a bit unbalanced. The highs can get really, really bright. Like uncomfortably bright. I've suffered from tinnitus for the past 15 years, and this guitar triggers my tinnitus worse than any acoustic I've ever owned. So I usually play with ear plugs, which I don't do with other acoustics. The guitar comes with a high-action bridge and a low-action bridge, and they're very easy to switch. I'm currently using the low-action bridge, and get a little bit of buzzing if I play a note close to the fret. If I play in the middle of the fret, it's pretty good. All in all, I think the guitar sounds pretty good. It's not going to compare favorably to a $1400 wooden guitar, but I don't think anyone buying this guitar would expect that. Comfort. I find it difficult to have decent posture when playing this guitar on my right leg. Sometimes I'll play it in between my legs ("classical" style) and that is a bit better, but difficult to maintain that position for long, since the body is pretty small. The best playing position for me is standing up, with the strap yoked up pretty far. It looks pretty dorky but allows me to play a lot longer. But the strap gets uncomfortable on my left shoulder after a little while. This might be due to the guitar being somewhat heavy. Or perhaps it's related to the wedge shaped body. But, usually, I just move between various positions to mitigate the comfort issues. Tuners. The guitar has locking tuners, which is kind of cool (I've never used them before), but the tuners are a little bit to coarse for my taste. I often over-turn the tuner and have more trouble finding a pitch, compared to other guitars I've owned. But, this is a pretty minor problem, and I've gotten used to it pretty quickly. Quality. I'd say overall that the quality of my unit is pretty good. One issue I brought up with support is that the tuning pegs do not seem to be spaced evenly, which causes the strings to be a little bit uneven near the bridge. I've been able to compensate for this by slightly rotating the peg so the string comes out a tiny angle, resulting in evenly-spaced strings. I was worried this might result in string breakage, or might just revert to the uneven spacing, but so far, so good. On the plus side, I like the feel of the frets. They are extremely smooth on the top edge of the neck. On most guitars I've owned, I can feel the frets on the top of the neck, and this has sometimes been uncomfortable if I'm playing with a thumb hooked over the neck. But this guitar doesn't have that problem at all. The frets seem to just grow organically out of the fretboard. Neck mechanism. I am really impressed with the quick release functionality. It's the primary feature that drew me to this guitar, and I'm very pleased with it. It's easy to use and seems well-built. Overall, highly recommended travel guitar for anyone that wants to bring their guitar on planes or on extended trips. ... show more

    • Don’t ever change your strings!!
Size: Collapsible Acoustic/Electric Guitar Color: Black Gloss
I got the totally carbon fiber travel guitar. The guitar came with the neck unattached.. but I followed the directions and the guitar was ready to play. There are many things I like about this instrument.. the sound is robust and full.. the contours of the body make it comfortable to play.. and overall, the guitar feels well made. Where I have a problem is with the nut configuration. In addition to the nut is another attachment that channels the strings. I wanted t adjust the truss rod and getting the nut and this other attachment put back on with the existing strings is a pain!! The company needs to re-examine this configuration immediately. ... show more
