Martin Backpacker And More: Traveling With Your Guitar Part Deux

May 16, 2008
More Backpacker Guitars

We're back with more travel guitars suggested by Tim Joyce of Old Town School of Folk Music. In this video, we look at a Silvertone 3/4 Sized Guitar, a Martin Backpacker and even a Lanikai Baritone Ukulele.

The Martin Backpacker is different than any travel guitar we've seen yet from Tim. While the others are all smaller scale guitars that would be convenient for traveling, the Backpacker is specifically made for space-saving transport.
