To enable practicing guitar while traveling, I purchased the Sonicake Travel Guitar QGT-01. It was 30% off during the Amazon Black Friday sale ($209.99) and seemed like an excellent alternative to the Yamaha SLG200s series of silent travel guitars. It had received positive reviews on YouTube and was worth trying. I had tried two Donner Travel guitars previously: Hush I Pro and Hush C, but was not satisfied with their handling or sound.
- Advanced Digital Pre-amp： High-quality digital front-end with multiple Body-Shape simulations, high-quality Reverb and Chorus effects, Resonance Enhancement effect, 2-band EQ adjustment, and excellent tone shaping ability.
- Rechargeable Lithium Battery: Equipped with a 2000mAh rechargeable lithium battery, long endurance of 10 hours, and designed with energy-saving power to easily cope with various scenarios.
- Classic Acoustic Guitar Body Design: Traditional design restores the original guitar feel, bringing you excellent balance and a warm playing experience.
- Ultra-Lightweight Portable Body: Detachable wooden frame; the assembled guitar weighs around 1.7kg, ensuring complete portability. Travel-friendly companion, designed for the musician on the move.
- Solid Rosewood: Solid rosewood fingerboard and bridge, restoring the classic feel of an acoustic guitar.
