Scaled down guitars are often reduced to children's tinkering supplements; they aren't worthy enough for adults, especially for those working professionals. Then Ed Sheeren came along & proved to the world that it's a matter of preference & a timely reminder that the guitar is a musician's tool first & foremost. The type of guitar in question appeals to personal taste.
Veelah's To Go here is the spruce top version. For this amount of cash, that solid top inclusion is a respectable move. The test model is virtually flawless in terms of wood work- check out that carved rosette! Hardware-wise the tuners are above-average in-house units which do not cause a chronic neck dive.
What do you expect from a travel-size acoustic? A jumbo-type bottom end? Dreadnought resonance? These are impractical expectations. What the To Go guitar has to offer is a sweet acoustic tone, very clear & focused in terms of definition & that all important top end which are rightfully offset by the mahogany sides & back- nothing too bright & juvenile. It's something you don't mind hearing in the midst of song-writing. All the goodness with a complementary bag to boot. I'd say, if you are looking for that guitar to place in that corner of your room at the ready should you feel inspired to play, this one should be considered. Thanks, Mike (SV Guitars) for the heads-up.

Beautiful. Looks good..
These guitars are fantastic value for under $500. After playing over 30 acoustic cutaway guitars between $600 to $1000 this hit the mark easily. Great for students as well
