Looking to buy a mini guitar for holidays, would like advice.

'Sup, FP.

This year I'm looking to buy a minature guitar that would be small enough to bring with me on hand luggage for my holidays. I'm thinking of a Mini Flying V (The Vee Wee I think it's called)

My cousin has one and it was fairly good, I'd appreciate if anyone knew a respectable place to get them cheaply.

I'd also consider any other mini electric guitar.

Any recommendations ?

Cheers FP.

You may not even need to get another guitar.
1) Take the neck off the one you have
2) Put the body withtin your luggage and carry the neck in your hand.
This is what My guitarist done for a trip from the UK to new zealand.

Won't work if your guitar isn't a bolt-on :p

Just a thought :o

Well, 90% of Gibsons and Gibson clones are set-in

Aren't Fenders like... the only high-end guitars with bolt-on necks?

I wouldn't bring a high end guitar on holiday anyhow - It's almost certainly gonna get a ding.

Musicman are bolt-on
As are caparison

Lots of manufacturers offer both options.

No, my Gibson's not bolt on and it's WAY too heavy for travel.

Same with those backpacker guitars, it's just too big.

Well, just don't fly United.

I want to have the mini guitar at the pool so I can blaze out hot licks and be :c00lbert:
