GS-Travel-E LH Mahogany : Do Not Hesitate!

Having read several reviews about the HB GS travel e guitar I decided to take the plunge and order one.

Having played it for a few hours I am absolutely amazed at what HB have achieved here. To be fair I haven’t played a Taylor GS mini on which this is obviously styled but I have had a Taylor acoustic so think I can speak reasonably accurately on the comparison. This little guitar has a fantastic tone for its size and is finished superbly by HB. For £111 this has to be the best value guitar by far I have in my acoustic collection which includes a Martin, Takamine, Yamaha and Lag Hyvibe.

Considering the included electronics and quality gig bag it’s hard to work out how HB have manufactured such a great instrument for this price. The only very slight issue I can find is the scratch plate which has harsher edges than you would expect but really this has no effect on sound or playability. This guitar just feels comfortable as soon as you pick it up and it is hard to put down which is exactly what you want from a guitar.

This would be a great starter guitar but is also ideal for more experienced players who want something to mess about on sitting on the sofa or travelling.

Hope this helps anyone thinking about buying this instrument and worrying about it being too cheap to be true. This is very good quality at a great price!
