Re: OT: Traveler Guitars?

[Daryl Shawn <highhorse@mhorse.com>]

Whoa! I've searched dozens of times for "headless nylon-string" and 
"travel classical" and never saw this fella. It's pricier than what I 
need it for at the moment, but if I really needed to leave my full-body 
nylon-string at home for a serious tour this looks like an excellent 
alternative, and is a lot shorter than the Soloette which has the same 
headless w/ detachable wings concept. The nylon-string version even has 
big white flamenco tap plates you can plug in - awesome. thanks for the 
review.
