2008 Composite Acoustics Cargo No Electronics - Carbon Fiber Parlor Acoustic Guitar

The Cargo model travel guitar by Composite Acoustics packs a surprisingly big and warm sound into an extremely convenient and playable package. We highly recommend it for applications where you wouldn't think of taking your more valuable instruments -- business trips, camping trips, beach vacations, frat parties, rugby matches, Congressional hearings... With an overall length of 35" you could easily stuff it into an overhead compartment. And with a 22.75" scale length it's effortless to play. We carry it in Road Tuff Wine red or Road Tuff Charcoal.

Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"I admit it. I was really skeptical at first. But these things sound awful darn good for a guitar this small that's not even remotely related to wood. You could sit on the porch and play this thing in a blizzard if you wanted to. Go ahead, spill your drink on it... sit in the surf with it... sand, schmand! It's amazingly full and warm. How do they do this? Note to self: Put one of these on the Xmas list." - Al Schlimm

Another Satisfied Dream Guitars Customer:
"I just want to thank you for the fantastic job you did on my guitar. Everything is perfect, and it plays, sounds and looks tremendous. The intonation is vastly improved--I've played a lot of old Martins, and I've never played one (including this one) that needed so little adjustment when capoed. The binding repair is almost undetectable, and I never thought that top finish could be fixed as you did. If you ever need a reference, let me know! I look forward to seeing and hearing what you do on the mandolin." - Dave H., North Carolina
