Insider Information:
- The Carry-on travel guitar was designed in the UK by Blackstar in association with the master luthiers at Gordon Smith Guitars UK.
- Using a single billet of wood for the body and neck means that the grain will be an even match across the instrument and allows the guitar to reverberate freely and evenly – a glue join would have been a barrier to reverberation.
- The body and neck are made from single prices of Okoume, a bright, lightweight tonewood with a more open grain than mahogany.
- Using 12-54 string gauges creates the tension and feel of a full-size electric guitar
