Full-Featured Guitar
This traveling guitar comes in a full-size 24-inch scale. No scrimping on quality materials either with a solid spruce top, a mahogany body and neck as well as a rosewood fingerboard. The guitar is polished off with quality geared tuners and professional binding and inlay.
Amazing Sound, Amazing Price
Despite this guitar having a small body for travel, the size does not matter to the quality of the sound this instrument produces. Compared to full sized guitars, the Washburn Steel String Travel Acoustic Guitar holds its own and allows for easier travel. All for a great price that cannot be beat.

Extremely Playable
This is the kind of guitar that can be used for practice as well as for travel. Its projection and richness is on par with full sized guitars and the 24-inch scale allows for ease of playing. The neck is very comfortable for fingering, the body isn't bulky and fits into tight spaces and the quality of construction is on par with full sized guitars for triple the price. It just feels good and begs to be played.
Complete with Case
The Washburn Steel String Travel Acoustic Guitar comes complete with the highest quality cordura case with a hard foam lined, molded interior. This case includes internal and external storage pockets, a backpack with luggage straps, 3 D-rings to adjust the strap and clips on to an exact fit to your body and, finally, the case is sized to fit airline overhead storage bins.

Big Sound From a Little Guitar,
By Larry L (NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Washburn Steel String Travel Acoustic Guitar (Natural) (Electronics)
I normally play an Ovation acoustic and was accustomed to that projected sound afforded by the rounded back. As you can Imagine I was somewhat skeptical when I looked at the ROVER. This guitar has EXCELLENT sound that I absolutely did not expect. I compared this guitar to the martin backpacker(btw, I love Martin Guitars) and not only is the sound better but the action is unbelievable. All for under $200.00. This is a great buy especially at this price. I can't put this guitar down!

Nice Price - An Overall Nice Deal,
By
This review is from: Washburn Steel String Travel Acoustic Guitar (Natural) (Electronics)
I've played Washburn's since I started and currently own 4 of them so was pretty comfortable ordering this without playing it first. It's a very playable guitar that took virtually no set up (minor truss rod adjustment) with nice action. The tone gets a little getting used to - a bit like a ukelele from the player position but when someone across from me was playing it I was surprised over the projection and better than anticipated richness (given it's size). Better than the Martin backpacker in that it's a more conventional shape and easier to play - and, I think, sounds fuller. Great travel case - it would take a lot to do some damage - and nice accessory package. Came very close to giving it 5 stars - particularly for the price. Don't think you could do better.

Extraordinary Value,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Washburn Steel String Travel Acoustic Guitar (Natural) (Electronics)
I have to believe that this guitar is a loss leader for Washburn. The fit and finish are excellent but most importantly the neck setup is the best I have ever seen on a new guitar out-of-the-box at any price. After playing it for one day I had no choice but to take my Martin in for a neck setup to match it, or at least come close -- cost me $600. A travel guitar needs to have an excellent case and this one does. It's made to fit in the overhead but I would have no qualms about shipping this in the belly of the beast. The neck and head stock get very good support in this case. Within hours of receiving this guitar I installed a strap button on the heel, this is essential for holding the guitar and Washburn would do well to make this a standard feature.
