Overview

All-carbon fiber design with offset soundhole for incredible projection intonation.

The McPherson Carbon Series Touring Acoustic-Electric is an incredible instrument designed with the most demanding musician in mind. This travel-size guitar is built to be the go-to/to go guitar for every player, from the touring musicians taking the stage at the Grand Ole Opry to the aspiring musicians wanting a better higher-end experience as they work on their chops on the back porch. It can go wherever you go.

The body, neck, bridge, fretboard, and bracing of the Touring is made fully of carbon fiber, with a proprietary blend used on the back and sides, making it resistant to changes in temperature and humidity. Its cantilevered neck is not glued or connected to the top of the guitar, allowing the soundboard to vibrate to its fullest potential. This makes it project like a full-size guitar.

The Touring guitar creates some of the most balanced intonation you’ll ever find with excellent playability, outstanding volume and tone, tonal warmth and dynamic range. When it's time to plug in, it comes with a L.R. Baggs Element pickup with a discrete, Class A endpin preamp that is custom voiced for carbon fiber.

The durability of the material translates to powerful, yet intricate acoustic tone. From fingerstyle to strumming, and everywhere in between, these guitars can do it all. And, best of all, it easily fits airline overheads or anywhere space is tight.

Includes carbon faux hardshell case.
