What our customer's say!

"cool little guitar", I was trained on the classical guitar, but wanted a steel string guitar as well as a travel guitar. So I purchased the steel string Washburn Rover travel guitar. I liked the guitar so much that I also purchased the classical version. These guitars are well built, amazingly resistant to scratches (possibly due to the dull finish), and sound amazingly good for such a small guitar. I was a little disappointed in the classical version as it has cheapee looking plastic tuners (the steel version has metal tuners) and the fingerboard could have been a bit wider to accomodate fingers that are used to the wider fingerboards on traditional classical guitars. Also the strings were not mounted properly and wouldn't stay tuned, so you will need to/should restring them when you get it.

I've read how some people have problems holding the guitar on their thigh... guitars, especially classical, should be resting on your left thigh (for right handers) not the right as most self taught guitarists do(which would cause the head on this guitar to be very low). I didn't have much problem at all with the guitar positioned in the proper manner.

All in all, it is a very good value. The case itself could withstand the worst of airport treatment. If I didn't prefer classical guitars themselves, however,... I would favor the steel string acoustic version of this guitar, just because it seems a bit better made. But if you prefer the classical guitar, and/or are just used to one and want a guitar that you can play just about anywhere, this oughta do it for you.

Comes with guitar, case, guitar strap, case strap, 2 picks, extra bridge, hex key for the truss rod (and yes, the classical version also has a truss rod! - as another review elsewhere states otherwise), and DVD with free online lessons. The only thing missing is extra strings!

PS-the guitar currently pictured on the Amazon site is NOT the classical version, it is the regular steel string acoustic version. The Classical guitar has, as you would expect, the tuning pegs mounted horizontally (with the guitar flat) with the carve-outs in the head as well as a larger head, and ever so slightly wider fretboard than the regular version and a different bridge to accomodate the nylon strings.
