Easy to play, easy to
"Easy to play, easy to transport. Perfect for what I wanted in a portable guitar!"
My favorite guitar!
"What a surprise! Just had to tune it and it played great! Low action, no need for truss rod adjustments and no fret sprouts. This is the first guitar I did not have to setup. Plays beautifully straight out of the box. Really great sound! Feels pretty much like playing a regular strat. No need to experiment with where to place your hand/wrist like on other travel guitars I’ve tried. Amazing guitar!! Thank you!!"
Fantastic
"Great sound and playability. Super happy with purchase."

"I have an older Speedster electric and it's amazing. Great sound and very portable. Light weight and easy to pick up and play."
Speedstar Deluxe
"So far it's great. I likenthe fact i can just plug in my headphones and jam away. A lot smaller than i thought. I'm bring it on a business trip. I hope if i get delayed at an airport, i can de-stress and jam away to past the time."
Wow, I'm impressed!
"I'm a big fan of Gibson electrics so I was somewhat apprehensive about buying my Speedster. That turned out quickly to be unfounded. Great travel guitar and fun to play. Well done, Traveler. Now build a cover for the back of it and it will be perfect!"
"It good."
Super fun, easy to take with you
"I love this guitar. So much fun. Full scale yet i can take it on trips. Sounds great through my 3W amp. Great when I don't want to lug my full size case. Really looking forward to having this on trips from now on. Awesome!"
Surprising quality.
"I recently bought the Speedster Standard in Hugger Orange (for Halloween!) and was impressed by its playability and QC. The eye-catching finish is fantastic. The neck feels good in the hand and it stays in tune as well, if not better, than any smaller guitar I've had. Traveler guitars are conversation starters and this one is no exception. This is an excellent travel guitar."
