    I’m sorry Jung but I do know nothing about e-guitars. Though I found that:

    The Beatles : Rock Band (kind of guitar Hero game)

    OK… Found photo/visual references to what I saw at craft show yesterday, first up being the classical Traveler Guitar that my vendor friend’s hubby was playing while wearing earphones, (my friend does the selling aspect… Lol… He takes over when she goes for washroom/food break. They sell also outside in Byward Market here during Summer months. Screenshot_20191116_151853_com.amazon.mShop.android.shopping

    All wright Jacki, now I get it. You said: ” I thought that was cool and interesting….” Your quite wright about traveler guitars. It’s useful.

    For me, this is the real thing for traveler guitar.

    “Revolutionary Steinberger Design

    There was nothing like Ned Steinberger’s guitars and basses when they were first introduced in 1979. Today, with their lightweight and headless design, Steinberger guitars are still bold, modern instruments that offer players both a smooth tonal response and rock solid intonation at any position on the neck while giving soloists a more pronounced single note attack not available from typical guitar designs.”

    I had one of those always on my  side for 15 years when traveling around Europe. Mine was all black as the original but here is a picture with the Black and white color especially for Mona.

    Hi Angelo… Glad you now understood what I was trying to post with photos to help make what I was trying to say what I saw at the craft show more clearer to be better understood… I’m a visual learner, myself.

    To add  to this reply, I know another friend who uses his Traveler Electric Guitar quite a bit… I’ll find a photo of what he has and share it here so you can see what I’m referring to.

     

    This is sort of what my friend has in this style of Traveler Guitar… I don’t know the exact model style but it is similar to the one in this photo :Screenshot_20191117_193417_com.android.chrome

    Jacki, Angelo.  Here is a little more info on that Jammy digital guitar, and just general info on what these latest digital guitars can do.   Sounds like a pretty useful music tool for tuning and composing on the go.

    Indeed it is a mix of the Line 6 Variax (modeling guitar) and the Steinberger (traveler guitar). Interesting. Not my kind of thing but for composers on the move, why not. If McCartney had not had a guitar on hand after waking up and having rehearsed “Yesterday”, we might not have been able to enjoy his beautiful song. It seems, in John Lennon’s opinion in 1971, that it’s the only thing McCartney really did. “The only thing you did; Yesterday” How Do You Sleep? (John Lennon song) Einstein said something like, “you always have to have a notebook at your fingertips, because the day you get an idea, you must not forget it because you do not have many ideas in the life”. In this vein, yes the Jammy can be an option.
    Well, I’m kidding!

    I like that.  I carry a small notebook on me all the time too, but unfortunately the ideas I get are quite menial and plebeian in comparison, LOL.  But I guess when that inspiration comes, it’s good to be prepared.

    I carry a small notebook… Lol… But I more often than not try to jot down poetry spur moments on my phone on a notebook app or scraps of paper floating about in my purse /knapsack…. But have on many occasions, unfortunately lost many a great poems due to… Lack of having nothing with me to write on (back in the pre smartphone/cell phone days)…. Library computer time limit ran out just as I was about to save…., etc…. I don’t always think to save my poems, as I’m focused on getting them written out while the poems still fresh in my mind…. Lol… But now I do carry a wee notebook?

    Thanks to MLTS I discovered these Australian guitars of the Maton brand and because of this I discovered Tommy Emmanuel and I now have work for the next 20 years …
