Feature:
I bought this product for one purpose: traveling. My business requires me to travel every week and I needed something that I can carry-on airplanes and play quietly in a hotel room. It meets both of those requirements. Other features I like: the 25 1/2 inch scale length, the 1 11/16 inch neck width (just like my Alvarez), and the feel of playing a full-size guitar.
Quality:
This thing feels indesructible. Rock solid and great feel. The pickup is also very good, at least for my untrained ears.
Value:
Everything I wanted for a great price. Also looked at the Yamaha Silent Guitar, which sounds very similar at nearly double the price.
Desirability:
Very cool. Everyone at the store where I bought it was swooning over it.
Sound:
THis guitar provides amazing sound for the price/portability. Will it compete with my Alvarez WY1? Of course not, but I don't think anyone expects that. I mostly play fingerstyle roots/blues, and the Travel Escape has great sound on the treble strings, but the bass is a bit muddy. I'm using the headset that came with the guitar, but I think the bass might sound stronger with a better set of headphones.
Support:
Haven't needed to use their support line yet, so I'll give Traveler Guitar he benefit of doubt.
Overall:
This is one portable, great sounding, solidly constructed, cool looking axe. I would never buy it for a primary guitar (or even a starter guitar), but highly recommend it for the traveling businessman that needs to keep those calluses intact.
