Journey Instruments Overhead OF660 Carbon Fiber Travel Guitar

Patented removable neck system allows this carbon fiber acoustic travel guitar to collapse into an airline carry-on size case for the traveling musician or backpacker. Carbon fiber composite material provides durability and can function in any climate without cracking, warping or changing tone.

The Overhead carries a clear resonant tone with surprising volume and bass. The relatively small body size is able to carry a full sound through the use of a Manzer wedge which increases the air volume while keeping the top of the guitar close to the body for comfort. Also provides access to the upper frets through a Scoopaway™ at the neck.

Also includes tone-enhancing premium-grade bone nut and saddle, along with ebony bridge pins.

Soundboard: Unidirection Carbon Fiber with gloss finish
Back & Sides: Carbon Fiber Twill with gloss finish
Case: Custom-designed travel guitar backpack engineered to fit in airline carry-on compartment 
Pickup: Proprietary under-bridge transducer pickup system

DESIGNED FOR TRAVEL

• The Overhead travel guitar uses a patented collapsible neck system which allows for assembly/disassembly in a matter of seconds. 
• After packing in its travel backpack the Overhead travel guitar can be carried-on to most major airlines, easily fitting in the overhead bin compartment.
• Travel backpack includes a TSA compliant laptop tablet fold-out panel which can be scanned by airport security without having to separately remove laptop.
• Proprietary under-bridge transducer pickup system accurately amplifies the guitar and comes with all Overhead guitars.

FULL TONE IN A TRAVEL BODY

• The wedge design gives a lower shoulder/bout depth that’s deeper than a dreadnought, allowing the smaller body size to deliver great volume and booming bass.
• Bone nut, compensated bone saddle, and ebony bridge pins all help produce the tone preferred by acoustic guitarists.
• Offset sound-hole design maximizes the resonance and volume of the soundboard and proprietary bracing and layup structure produce a spectacular tone for such a compact instrument.

COMFORTABLE TO PLAY

• The wedge design angles the guitar into your body which places the guitar in a comfortable position for fingerboard access and viewing.
• The dual-action steel truss-rod enables fine tuning of relief to suit any playing style.
• Satin-finish low-c profile neck make this 24.5 inch scale super comfortable to play.
• Scoop-away™ design gives full access to all 20 frets, yet maximizes inner air volume of the instrument for maximum acoustical volume.
