     Traveler Guitar is the industry’s leading manufacturer of full-scale, travel-
sized instruments. Most travel guitars sacrifice playability for portability—but 
at Traveler Guitar, we believe players need both. Since 1992, we have 
designed full-scale acoustic and electric travel guitars.  
     The Ultra-Light Guitar you hold in your hands is a solid-body acoustic/
electric guitar that can go with you almost anywhere. It has is similar to 
other guitars, except in its “In-Body” tuning system which allows it to be 
shorter than conventional guitars. The tuning machines operate like 
traditional tuning machines, yet they are mounted in the body of the guitar. 
Strings pass through the 

end-cap

, then around the String Rollers and to the 

tuning machines mounted to the back of the guitar. The tuning keys are 
accessible from the front of the guitar to allow tuning while holding the 
guitar in the playing position.
