    I have used a McPherson Carbon Fiber Touring Guitar for five years. I play in church and at outdoor worship services. It sounds great and rarely needs retuning with temperature changes.

    Man, I live in AZ that would be amazing. I have been thinking about a carbon fiber guitar a lot because of the temp extremes here. Wood gets beat up

    I've tried 3 brands of CF guitars. Yes, they have amazing sound but I have not yet found anything in a small travel size guitar that beats the GS Mini by Taylor. CF guitars sound great, but they are missing a bit of that "something" that wood guitars give you in tone. But hey, if I could afford it, I'd buy one of these cuz they'd be fantastic cottage or camping guitars. In a pinch, you can use them as a paddle and you won't hurt them! ;-)

    If this guitar had a 1 & 7/8 inch neck width, instead of 1 &3/4, it would be perfect (for me). It would then have the same neck dimensions as a full scale neck capoed at the second fret. As it is, my fingers feel to cramped down in open position. Hard to believe an eighth of an inch can make such a difference, but it does. I suggest any prospective buyer get their hands on one before purchasing. Love the tone, though.

    Have you ever used the Tonewood amp? It attaches to the back of your acoustic guitar and vibrates the back to make the guitar the speaker.

      The sound hole location along with the cantilevered neck allows the area under the strings to resonate for a bigger sound.

They have one in my local guitar center and everytime i play im beyond blown away, it is by far the best travel guitar ive ever played!

    • @worshiptutorials
      @worshiptutorials  5 років тому +6

      I don’t understand this comment (or line of thinking). So if a company (McPherson in this case) wants to build the best example of a product that exists (a travel guitar in this case), they shouldn’t because the end result will be expensive?
      There are lots of affordable travel guitars. Then there is this. If you play them side by side it becomes obvious that you get what you pay for.
      If you wanted to buy the best (or say fastest) car that exists, it wouldn’t come cheap.
