Color: Upgraded Dark Brown
I am impressed. We took it on a trip to the keys. We drove down and I used it each of those three nights and the four nights in the keys. It is durable and went together great each time. It sounds alright, (not much lows but I read the reviews before I bought it and expected that), and plays fantastically. My size 18 ring finger and the other three sausages on my left hand didn't have any problem fretting the notes on the neck which has an 1.75 inch nut. We flew back home and it fit nicely in the overhead with plenty of room to spare. It's light enough that it was easy carrying through the Dallas airport when switching planes. My local Luther was also impressed with the build and design. He had only heard good things but never had one in his hands. He said it wasn't too far off. I had him adjust the action to match my other acoustics. I expect this guitar to hold up for the remainder of my long life!

I bought this to fly to a family reunion and it worked brilliantly. I'm afraid the listing is misleading in a several places. What the listing presents as different colors (Dark Brown, Light Yellow, etc) are models constructed from different woods, and the text of the listing doesn't accurately change depending on which model is selected. Specifically, OF312C has mahogany top, back, and sides, not Sitka (Spruce) as some parts of the listing say. I checked out the model on the Journey web site before ordering and got exactly what Journey described for this model number (and exactly what I wanted). The listing's photo for model OF312C correctly shows the mahogany top. Travelling with this guitar: * Attaching and detaching the neck are quick and pretty easy. The Journey web site has excellent instructions. * I had absolutely no difficulty travelling with this guitar in the provided backpack. It went through the TSA scanners and into the planes' overhead bins with no fuss. Tuning and Playability: * I have largish hands and the 1 3/4" nut was one thing that attracted me to Journey, as many travel-size guitars seem to have very narrow necks. The scale length is short (24.5"), with 14 frets to the body. * Like some other reviewers, I initially thought the action was a bit high, but it turns out that the guitar comes with an alternate, lower saddle in the package. Swapping saddles is easy with the neck detached and significantly lowered the action. * The tuners are quick and took me a bit to get used to - small adjustments to the knob make big changes. In general, tuning was as stable as temperature/humidity changes allowed. On one or two occasions after re-attaching the neck, it took a couple of re-tunes before things settled down and became stable. * This is quite a heavy guitar because of the machinery for detaching and attaching the neck. Not a problem for me, but be aware to expect it. Sound: * This is a small guitar (roughly 00 size), so it's quieter than a bigger guitar and shouldn't be expected to deliver booming bass. I ended up very pleased with the tone and the volume was adequate for playing in moderately-sized rooms. Sustain is quite good for a guitar in this price range and with the compromises for travel. * Tonal expectations and string choice are pretty personal. I was looking for a warm tone with a fairly even balance across the strings. I was disappointed with the coated phosphor bronze strings that came on the guitar: The bass and mid-range seemed dull while the trebles were exceedingly bright. I generally play fingerstyle; If you play aggressive flatpick you may like them better than I did. I replaced them with a set of D'Addario EJ40 and got a more pleasing balance: more bass and mid-range resonance with singing, but not overwhelming trebles. The EJ40s are very low-tension strings and I got some some fret buzz after putting them on, which I eliminated by going back to the taller saddle.

I travel a lot, but I found it difficult to travel with a guitar. I love playing guitar, but the biggest issue was taking one of my prized guitars with me. I found one guitar that came with an indestructible guitar case by off chance I would have to check it in. Most if the time, I could put it in the overhead or there was a coat compartment that I could tuck it in. Some airlines are better at accommodating musicians with an instrument. It worked for a while, but I was finding the guitar with case were too heavy. I found Journey instruments. I had never heard of them before. I took a chance. My back was killing me too. I was desperate so I bought the acoustic version. It fit my budget. I started traveling with this guitar. It is light to carry as a back pack. I don’t have a problem putting it in the overhead or under the seat. It’s great! As far as playability, It is a fine instrument. I wasn’t expecting a great sound, but to my surprise, the acoustic sound is incredible. The construction and finish is nice and it seems to hold up very well with the bumping and jostling of travel. It still looks great after a year of travel. What I particularly like are the locking tuning keys. I didn’t expect with this guitar. Overall, I’m pleased with my purchase.

The media could not be loaded. This Journey guitar is a great sounding, and beautifully crafted instrument. I purchased this guitar after running out of time trying to fix an alignment problem that had developed on another travel acoustic which I had taken with on vacations over ten or twelve years. We were supposed to leave in only a few days. Not enough time to fix the problem. So...I found Journey Instruments on Amazon and was able to find a nice alternative to my other one...and I got it within two days! It is a well built instrument and once I got it tuned up I found it to be a very friendly and true sounding instrument throughout. It also fits very nicely into overhead compartments in an airplane...which was sometimes a problem with the other acoustic in small commuter flights. All in all this guitar has excellent intonation, action is very comfortable and the locking Grover tuning heads make for a really well built instrument that stays in tune and plays comfortably and accurately up and down the whole neck. The sculpted cutaway is also a really nice touch which makes playing on the high registers a breeze. The built-in piezo passive pickups are high quality too. Most of all..having this guitar along on our vacation (that my wife and I had planned for our 45th anniversary to Hawaii) last week was a nice touch and the 'Journey' was a big hit. Just mellowed out listening to some waves and playin' some tunes...that works just fine!

Surprisingly good sounding a easy to play. However, no place for a clip-on tuner. Action level is great, it feels durable and is good value for money. Only a slight string buzz when you don't tighten the screw. All in all, great thing and had no problems whatsoever taking it in the airplane!
