Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Manufacturer's Description (March 19, 2009)
Originally introduced in 2003, the Traveler Escape was designed with the acoustic player in mind. Built of satin stained alder and a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearloid dot inlays, the Escape has a traditional, more conservative look and feel. At only 29 inches long and weighing under four pounds, it's hard to believe that the Escape packs a full 25 1/2; inch scale fingerboard-but from the beginning, Traveler Guitar has never sacrificed the playing surface of a guitar and never will. The Escape comes equipped with a custom Shadow headphone amp which allows the player to plug headphones directly into the body for private practice. Plugged into a PA or acoustic amplifier, the Escape's remarkable and accurate tone means it can be used alone in the hotel or on stage with the band.

Full Scale Travel Guitar
Traveler pride themselves on having never compromised the playing scale of any of their instruments, and the Escape is no exception. Featuring a full 25-1/2-inch scale and 22 medium frets, you'll barely remember you're playing a travel guitar.
Headphone Amp by Shadow
The Escape Steel comes with a pre/headphone amplifier and under-saddle custom piezo pickup designed exclusively for Traveler Guitar by Shadow. The preamp comes equipped with a two-band EQ (treble and bass), volume control and a selector switch.
Pop your headphones into the standard 1/8 output jack, dial in your sound and enjoy some private practice. Alternately, just plug into an amp and take things public. Requires 9-volt battery for operation.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Great guitar! Except...,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Traveler Guitar Original Escape Acoustic Electric Travel Guitar with Deluxe Gig Bag (Electronics)
This little guitar is great. I purchased it with the intention of maximizing my practice time. I am a professional fingerstyle guitarist and I wanted a little guitar that I could have strapped to me 24/7 to always be honing my skills. This is basically exactly what I wanted. I would have given the guitar 5 stars, but my only problem with it is changing the strings. I just changed the factory light strings to Elixir mediums and the whole process was a major pain! But, on a purely functional basis, the guitar gets 5 stars, even if it takes some adjustment because of the small body size..
