Emerald Guitars Are Back With the Ultimate Travel Guitar

November 04, 2009

The carbon construction gives an incredibly loud and responsive sound from such a small body. The tone has great mid-range punch with a good deal of bass thrown in and has an amazing amount of sustain. The neck and fretboard are also carbon fiber so the neck is stiff and accurate which allows us to set it up with a nice low action that you can be sure wont change with the weather and these guitars rarely need tuned because the body never moves with weather changes.

The guitar is incredibly compact due to its unique design yet it still has a full-scale length. It comes in a high-quality gig bag that is compact enough to fit into most flight overhead bins making it easy to travel with and it has comfortable padded back straps so you can easily go off on a hike with it. The ample pockets give enough space for day supplies. This is truly a unique little guitar that will last a lifetime and enhance your life. It's the "X5 Life".
