Smallest. Lightest. Classical by Nature.

The Ultra-Light Nylon takes everything players love about our iconic Ultra-Light platform and pairs it with the warmth and expressive touch of nylon strings. Built for classical players, fingerstyle enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates a softer touch, it delivers full-scale playability in an impossibly compact, travel-ready design.

Designed from the ground up for life on the move, it offers the familiar comfort and responsiveness of a traditional classical guitar while producing very little acoustic volume when unplugged—making it ideal for practicing in hotel rooms, apartments, backstage, or anywhere you want to play without disturbing the people around you.

At just 28 inches long and weighing only 3 pounds, the Ultra-Light Nylon fits easily in airline overhead bins, car trunks, hotel rooms, dorms, and wherever your adventures take you. Plug it into your favorite acoustic amp, interface, or headphone amp, and you've got a travel companion that's always ready to play.

Whether you're traveling across the country, relaxing at the campground, or simply reaching for a guitar at home, the Ultra-Light Nylon lets you bring the unmistakable warmth of nylon strings wherever life takes you.

FEATURES:

  • Ultra-Portable Design: Only 28 inches long and weighs just 3 lbs., making it one of the smallest and lightest full-scale nylon-string travel guitars ever built. 
  • Full 24.75" Scale Length: Enjoy the familiar reach and feel of a standard classical guitar in an ultra-compact package. 
  • Authentic Classical Feel: Designed with a generous 1.94" nut width and traditional zero-radius fingerboard, the Ultra-Light Nylon delivers the familiar feel, spacing, and effortless playability that classical and fingerstyle players expect. 
  • Private Practice, Anywhere: The Ultra-Light Nylon's minimalist design produces very little acoustic volume when played unplugged, making it ideal for late-night practice, hotel rooms, apartments, backstage warmups, and anywhere you want to play without disturbing the people around you. 
  • In-Body Tuning System: Our patented headless design relocates standard tuning machines into the body, eliminating unnecessary length while using standard nylon strings and tuners. 
  • Traveler Piezo Pickup: Plug into an amp, audio interface, or headphone amp for rich, natural nylon-string tone wherever you play. 
  • Mahogany Neck-Through-Body Construction: A one-piece mahogany neck-through-body design delivers excellent sustain, strength, and long-term durability while contributing to the warm, rich character that nylon-string players love. 
  • Detachable Lap Rest: Provides a comfortable playing position while seated, then removes in seconds for maximum portability. 
  • Standard 1/4" Output: Connect directly to your favorite acoustic amp, recording setup, effects, or portable headphone amp with no special adapters required. 
  • Gig Bag Included: Every Ultra-Light Nylon includes a compact gig bag designed for grab-and-go travel and storage.

Reviews

Awesome little guitar

"I have had my ultra-light nylon for three years and it has gone to Mexico City, the French Alps, the Caribbean, Northern Spain and all over the US. It fits in the overhead compartment of small planes and can easily be put in a daypack for biking and hiking. I love having a guitar with me at all times. Recently the high string frets 6-9 went dead and buzzy. Traveler Guitar was very responsive by email and a few twists of the included truss rod solved the problem. While it is clearly a stopgap for a full sized guitar, I also use it when writing out music as it can dangle by its strap leaving both arms free for writing. I wish the preamp had a Bluetooth function so I could get rid of my pesky earbud cord."

— Mark (5/5)

Plays easy

"People mentioned them being hard to tune. . . . Well just take your time and they tune right up AND stay in tune really well."

— Roscoe P. (5/5)

Great for taking on travel, but that comes with some limitations

"I bought the ultra-light nylon so that I can continue to practice even when I'm traveling. It fulfills that role extremely well, but there are a couple of limitations inherent in its compact nature: It's difficult to tune because it's difficult to turn the tuning pegs without the strings getting in the way, the change in frequency while tuning can suddenly jump (probably from friction between the strings and the tailpiece), and there is no good place to locate a tuner. It's also so quiet that you really want to use it with an amp. Overall, I'm really pleased with it, but I want others to know that it can be a little frustrating."

— James H. (4/5)

My number 2

"Just as awesome as the first!"

— Clint f. (5/5)

Great more, but more details in owner’s manual

"Great for practicing anywhere. Would appreciate more details on setting up and playing."

— Jorge F. (5/5)

Ideal Guitar for staying in practice while traveling

"I have reviewed this guitar on my YouTube Channel "Mike Messes with Music" https://youtu.be/EL3gvr2Kijc"

5 Stars

"5 Stars"

— William I. (5/5)

Perfectly compact

"I wanted a practice guitar for whenever I travel, and since I'm just a hobbyist, I just needed something that I can fret and finger while producing enough sound to hear my mistakes. Fortunately, this guitar isn't too loud on its own. I can pretend to be Lindsey Buckingham while playing like Lindsey Graham. The guitar is indeed fairly quiet, which is good for when you don't want to disturb neighbors. You can always get a headphone for about $30-$40 if you need more sound. The construction feels very solid, and it's surprising just how small the guitar is. Haven't traveled with it yet, but I'm more afraid of losing it than breaking it."

— Joseph J. (5/5)
