I always dreamed of owning a small travel guitar to practice my music on-the-go. (And I’m a very on-the-go kind of person.)
But I never ever thought to check up on travel guitars. I simply assumed most people were happy with the size and weight of their guits.
Until I heard about this…
The LapStick
Handcrafted by Phil Neal, the lapstick boasts a mere 550g, and dimensions 50.5cm x 10cm x 4cm. It has a mahagony wood body, rosewood fretboard, and an internal preamp with clean, distortion and overdrive sounds.
It’s a guitar designed to be played on the bus, on the plane, or anywhere else you can think of, and you won’t disturb anyone else cos you can plug in your own earphones. (Unless you want to disturb people, then you can plug it into an amp).
For such a light guitar, it has a real weighty pricetag… The Lapstick costs a hefty 495 euros (or S$1001)…
Sigh…
