Whether traditional or more off-the-wall in design, let your mini guitar flags fly!

I prefer dreads, until I bought a travel acoustic for my son, but ended up using it myself. It is good for what it is--a guitar you can bring anywhere without taking up too much space.

yung post ko actually yung guitar para sa mga kids ko kasi ayaw na nila ng toy guitar
well, nakikigamit na din ako :-D

I got a Cort Earth Mini because of Royc's recommendation. It was a good guitar for what I used it for, a travel guitar. It was a hassle to lug around a heavy dread kasi haha!
But I had to sold it cos nasisikipan ako sa string spacing. I got an Alvarez OM as a replacement. Which I sold din cos of issues unrelated to the thread.
Anyway, eto siya:

My Washburn Rover - very slim and lightweight. Has a very nice polyfoam case for travel.
So what's the Hartke Acoustic Attack pedal doing there? I am actually using the guitar from time to time for open mic sessions here in Singapore. This guitar was heavily modified. I did not install the mic pickup for the Rover but installed an undersaddle pickup instead. A strap pin was also installed at the heel portion. I'm also using electric guitar strings to remove the twanginess brought about by the small body. Together with the Hartke Acoustic Attack, the guitar sounds huge direct to PA /mixer or through an amp.

Hi mga sir and maam. Recently bumili kasi ako ng Alvarez RT16. Yung Regent series na travel guitar nila. Pansin ko lang na ang stiff ng strings niya. Dahil ba sa string gauge yun? Or sa taas ng bridge saddle? Ano po bang magandang way para malessen yung stiffness nung string? Lalo na sa first 3 frets. Ang sakit kasi sa kamay kapag tumutugtog ako eh. Gusto ko sanang malaman muna yung cause nung stiffness bago ko dalhin sa luthier at ipaayos.
Btw, hindi ko po alam kung saan ipopost tong tanong ko. Since owners naman po kayo ng travel guitars baka may alam kayong remedyo sa problema ko. Hehe Maraming salamat po. :)

A new acoustic needs a proper setup. Kung galing ka sa electric normal na mahirapan ka pag bagong lipat to acoustic.

Okay sir. Meron po kasi akong 3/4 scale na acoustic and yun yung ginagamit ko bago ko bilhin itong travel acoustic guitar. Nakakapanibago lang tong isa kasi ang stiff talaga and ang hirap magpress ng note especially sa first 3 frets niya. Btw sir, salamat sa output niyo :)
-
In that case, just bring it to a good luthier

First of all, check mo yung neck relief. Baka kasi kailangan ng truss rod adjustment. If ok naman at kung 1st three frets yung stiff, mataas yung nut pwede namang
i-shave . Kung halos buong fretboard stiff yung strings, malamang both bridge saddle and nut kailangan i-shave. Check mo lang muna kung may shim sa ilalim ng
bridge saddle. Tanggalin mo muna para i-try kung OK na sa yo yung action kapag wala na yung shim. Try lower gauge strings din.
Ako mismo nagse-setup ng guitars ko kapag bagong bili sa store. Sa acoustics by default mataas yung action. Factory setting kadalasan.
Hindi naman mahirap i-setup ang guitar pero dahan-dahan lang sa pag shave ng bridge saddle and nut.

Natanggal ko na yung shim sa ilalim nung bridge pero ganun padin sir, first 3 frets padin stiff. Ayoko naman po galawin yung truss rod baka kasi masobrahan ko. Same with the nut, wala akong mga gamit na kailangan para tanggalin kaya baka iderecho ko nalang po sa luthier.
Salamat sa pagpoint out nung mga possible problems sir. Btw, ano pong brand and gauge ng strings yung mga sasuggest niyo para maiwasan pa yung pagkastiff niya?

Try mo yung D’ Addario Silk and Steel. Ang alam ko meron din sa pinas nyan.

Alright sir. Eh sa gauge po? Masyado na bang makapal ang 12s? or I will go low hanggang 10s?
