    I'd like to point out that the length of the instrument is the same as an acoustic Baritone Ukulele so if you want a gigbag that fits perfect in one for those.

    Btw You two remember why PRS come with a hanging system in the bag? It is for hanging your PRS in wardrobes on Airplanes in First Class and some Club Class (or Virgin Upper). I've travelled with one guitar that way and the staff on board say "Thank you, Sir!" and give it back to you when taxiing to arrivals terminal. Course the only problem for most is the cost of the 'plane ticket.... Best, Pete.

    I got charged extra for my Hofner Shorty by Jet2 on a flight from Manchester to Venice. Took the neck off and put it in my suitcase on the return flight. This one is sligthy smaller so migth get away with it on some flights. But would not like to try taking it on a Ryan air Flight 😂

  • @chopperdeath
    @chopperdeath 2 года назад +2

    I bought a Hofner Shorty years ago because it looked like a good idea in theory, but I could never get past how awkward it was to handle. Neck dive and tough to place in the classical position. I would like to hear if anyone has had a good experience with these. Would a strap help?

    • @v1rtualnish
      @v1rtualnish Год назад +1

      This is the exact same. It looks, plays, and sounds good, but it has bad neck dive because of the tuners are far too heavy. Not to mention it continuously wants to slip onto its back while trying to rest it on my leg. Very uncomfortable to the point I'd rather just not bring it with me. When are manufacturers gonna learn to balance their instruments?

    I enjoyed the sounds and fretboard for the one I had, but ultimately couldn’t get past the light neck dive and needing a strap to play it comfortably. Upgrading the tuners made the neck dive worse. Fun guitar though!

    I don’t understand this guitar at all. I want a travel guitar but this one is too long to fit in a medium to large suitcase. It’s also too long to carry on the plane. Guess I’ll continue to take the neck off my squire, put it in my case with a screwdriver.

    • @KeithMilner
      @KeithMilner 2 года назад

      I did that with a Tele a few years ago. It worked well, although it did take up a lot of space in the suitcase.
      The main thing is to pack a set of strings and the tools to reassemble and restring it. I have a little Cruztools kit which does the job.
