Hi guys,
Just thought I'd show you this little fella :eek:
Before you get excited it's a pic of my Samick mini guitar that I purchased in Amsterdam last year. It's a fabulous travel guitar, I can take it anywhere. Wish I hadn't sold my Pandora 3 now, maybe I'll have to check out the Pandora 4 :D

Some people really are better off with Jumbo bodied guitars though!

Now this is a little guitar.
OK, so you can't play it... but it's still cool :dude:

BTW, my travel guitar is a Baby Taylor! But this is the travel guitar I'd really like to have :D (the mini hollow-cut on the right... of course)

From the mouth of the great creator: "You could always go private stock"
My travel guitar's a mandolin. Fits right in the suitcase as long as I can convince my wife not to pack a hair dryer.
In fact, Big Ginger, I had the mando in Amsterdam a few months ago. Why don't we meet, say at Grey Matter, and jam?

FWIW, I think I remember reading that Eddie Van Halen had to tune his to F# for the song little guitars.

Do you remember doing a bikers gig last year (I think) in a barn on a farm in the middle of nowhere?
You played first then we came up from Weymouth and did the later shift.
The stage was raised up on palates.
