Hey guys! I just joined up here so I can share this with you I got the GS-Travel-E Mahogany, I couldn't find any videos of it when I was thinking about buying it, so I think a little demo belongs here.
I'm really really impressed by this guitar, it sounds and plays great! Super happy.
Now I'm going to go and explore the rest of The HB Club!

Welcome @sixmonthsleep - I watched your vid earlier - are you Irish? From Belfast myself. That looks like a fine copy of a GS Mini. How is the pickup? Sounded good in the vid; what are you plugged into?

Hi man thanks! I am Irish! I'm from Donegal, but I'm currently studying music tech in Limerick. I'm very happy with the pick-up, It sounds a bit bassy there but it's fine once it's processed a little. I'm plugged into a Line 6 UX2 audio interface and running Logic Pro X. and that's it!

Haha! yeah, before I moved here I had heard all of the horror stories. I haven't really had any trouble yet, I got decked with an apple one evening walking home (carrying my Epiphone Wildkat), some young lad decided to be cool in front of his friends. So I'm glad they didn't steal the guitar, a few of my friends have been mugged alright. It is right rough in parts so I'm just trying to be smart about it, try to charm my way out of harm

Do you own/have you played a Taylor GS Mini? Looks remarkably similar. I've played a couple and wasn't that impressed for £650 - these HBs look almost identical for 6 times less...

Guess where those two blokes were from Limerick they say

Due to musical differences I've decided I can't work with myself any more.

I ordered it tonight! I went for the spruce version simply because I find all mahogany too Earthy sounding. I prefer a bit more zing to the sound Will update you once I get it!

My guitar was shipped today at 15:00 which means it could be at my door Friday morning if all goes according to the plan!

Welcome sixmonthssleep. Some nice fingerstyle playing on that video of yours. I really like the second tune you played/improvised.
