TheBONE® TheSTAGE B300
TheBONE® TheSTAGE B300

When only the very best will do....

The top of the range B300 Stage was developed for guitarists for whom a two pickup system is a must. It is fitted with twin custom humbucker pickups each capable of single and twin coil operation and an 8-way selection system.

Ideal for work on-stage or in the studio the B300 has it all whilst offering unmatched portability, flexibility and playing comfort with its innovative lightweight and detachable steel tube "body".

With its headless design the B300 measures just 27 inches long (with the patented “body clip” frame detached), yet it retains the full 24 ¾ inch scale and a 22 fret neck.

With its stunning and very contemporary good looks, superb range of sounds, amazing weight and compact dimensions you will quickly agree that this really is an instrument you would be proud to own and to keep with you at all times.  

When only the very best will do.

TheBONE®  TheSTAGE B200
TheBONE® TheSTAGE B200

The exceptionally lightweight and compact B200 Stage was specially developed with the needs of the performing guitarist uppermost, particularly those who like to work with an external effects processor and who also demand the very best quality, comfort and tone from their instrument.

Manufactured  from a single piece of hard maple with a radiused rosewood fingerboard, the headless design places the tuning machines at the “opposite end” of the guitar where specially designed precision thumbscrews permit easy and accurate tuning. A fully adjustable custom bridge with individual saddles provide for setting individual string intonation and height.

The single powerful TC2 custom humbucker system keeps things simple whilst still providing single or twin coil switching to offer an amazing range of tones - from warm and fat - to crystal clear.

The B200 is already super light weight. Now unscrew two thumbscews, remove and fold the steel tube body frame, and you have perhaps the most compact yet serious guitar available anywhere. Pop it into its custom gig bag or even in your suitcase and you will smile - everytime!

Call this instrument a travel guitar if you will, but the B200 is a guitar to be proud of and one you can and will want to keep with you. At home, in the studio or on the go, no matter how you get there. 

Sheer pleasure.

Sorry, we have just sold the last of our B200 models. Our next B200 order is scheduled to be built and will be arriving in mid-late September.

Transaxe BELAIR - Limited Edition
Transaxe BELAIR - Limited Edition

Capturing the vibe from the earliest days of the electric guitar, this Limited Edition guitar has a subtle semi-transparent high-gloss “TV Yellow” finish, and wears a deeply-patterned tortoise pick guard. 

To continue with the period tone, this guitar is fitted with two custom Tonerider™ “Vintage 90 Soap Bar” pickups, and a three-position toggle switch. The tone is said to be "warm yet articulated, and has punch and sustain that is more than surprising".

Fitting its Limited Edition status, this guitar sports deluxe features ordinarily found on much more expensive instruments: solid Alder wood body, solid Canadian Maple neck topped with a solid Rosewood fingerboard, mother-of-pearl fret position dots, and a bridge that’s adjustable for individual string intonation and height.

Only 250 of the Voyage-Air Belair Limited Edition™ guitars are being produced worldwide, and each will have a special, sequential serial number and they will be instant collector’s items: the first full-size folding electric guitars from Voyage-Air!

They are expected to arrive here mid September and we have managed to secure just a very small number.

This model is due to arrive in the UK for the very first time in late September and we have managed to secure a small number. We expect to have them here at the end of September, possibly the first week of October.

Please let us know if you would like to be informed of availability or you can also place an order now for the last of our allocation.

RAMBLER CS Cherry
RAMBLER CS Cherry

British designed and hand built in England to suit the most demanding player, the top of the range Rambler CS (Custom Shop) takes its specification just that bit further...

A compound radius, 22 fret neck varies from a 10 inch radius at the nut to 16 inches at the body and provides the best of both worlds: comfort when chord fingering but with reliable low-action string bending for lead breaks. This is then complemented by a Fender roller nut to provide extra tuning stability and wide string weight tolerance for when your playing demands it. 

Add a pair of Seymour Duncan humbucking pickups, each with a coil split, to give you 5 way selection and you will see how the Rambler CS ensures your choice of tone, voice and presence is as wide as possible.

The handmade body is reassuringly solid and perfectly balanced. The guitar has superb sustain and character and with its familiar and full 25½ inch scale it belies its compact 32 inch length.

This really is a no compromise, high performance guitar built to satisfy the most demanding player who also expects to find familiarity and tradition but in a very convenient package.

A travel guitar? No not just that but rather this is firstly a great guitar and secondly a guitar that travels easily. With its perfect dimensions, perfect balance and perfect sound it is also a guitar that could just become your favourite!

Sorry, this Rambler CS has now been sold - congratulations Rob!

TheCRUISER® type S1
TheCRUISER® type S1

Whilst theCRUISER shares the same design principles and even some of the hardware seen on the existing B200 & B300 "Stage" models, theCruiser has in mind the need to satisfy the electric guitarist who seeks a more simple and perhaps more affordable instrument but one which still retains all the intelligent Swiss design features that make TheBONE guitars so easy to travel with.

This is a role in which theCruiser excels.

With its very modern headless design, removable and folding steel tubular frame and patented tuning system, this full scale guitar packs down to less than 27 inches in length and comes complete with an amazingly compact gig-bag.

TheCruiser has a bolt on neck/body construction and is made from hard rock maple with a Rosewood fretboard, 22 playable frets, a full 24.75 inch scale and a custom humbucker. For simplicity the Cruiser has a fixed bridge and saddle.

TheCruiser S1 builds on the strengths of the S model and adds an integrated headphone pre-amp which allows you to practice, in silence, anywhere and any time. 

Two knobs for volume and tone controls keep everything easy. 

Simply plug in your headphones and away you go in a world of your own. Alternatively, plug in to your amp or P.A. and perform.

What could be easier?

Sorry, we are now sold out of this model until new factory stock arrives mid September.

Traveler EG1 - Sunburst

The very latest addition to the Traveler range is the Escape EG1 in mahogany but with a glorious Sunburst Gloss finish.

Like all EG1 models this is a very sophisticated full-scale electric travel guitar but this time featuring a vintage soapbar pickup fed into an onboard Pocket Rock-it headphone amp, with clean and distortion settings.

The EG1’s onboard electronics include a 1/8” AUX IN jack so players can jam along with tracks from an mp3 or CD player. At the same time the Escape EG1 boasts more traditional guitar features such as a strong, resonant African Mahogany body and bolt-on neck with an ebonized rosewood fretboard. 

The headless design dramatically shortens the guitar and the tuners are found recessed in the body where they are brilliantly protected from the inevitable knocks and bangs they can occur whilst out and about.

Add in a full 25-1/2 inch scale and 22 jumbo frets and you’ll forget you’re playing a travel guitar!

Complete with good quality custom gig-bag and headphones.

Traveler EG1 - African Mahogany

The EG1, in African Mahogany, shares all the great features of its Alder bodied cousin but this wood, used on both the body and neck, makes the guitar significantly lighter in weight whilst the satin finish gives the guitar a beautiful and very different look which is also more tolerant and forgiving if knocked.

Traveler PRO SERIES
Traveler PRO SERIES

The Pro Series is the final development of the original Traveler Guitar, fully loaded and with a full 24 3/4 inch scale. The design of the Pro Series has stood the test of time and it is a unique and completely reliable companion for the travelling guitarist. Certainly it is one of the smallest, full-scale travel guitars on the market and by far the most versatile.

Featuring a detachable lap-rest and private listening Stethophone which allows players to hear themselves using the same physics as a doctor's stethoscope, which also means it's battery free, a major bonus in some parts of the world!

This guitar boasts both an acoustic style piezo and a custom electric single coil pick-up so the Pro Series can be any guitar you want it to be, pleasing to the electric purist and the more traditional acoustic player too. A real Jekyll and Hyde of a guitar one could say!

It weighs less than four pounds and is a mere 28 inches in length and packs up to just over 5 inches wide when the lap rest is rotated into the stowed position, ready to travel. 

Carry it in its great tailored custom gig-bag or don't bother and pop it in your suitcase. You will be amazed that a top quality guitar can be so compact and versatile and it makes a perfect travlling companion.

Traveler ULTRA LIGHT ELECTRIC
Traveler ULTRA LIGHT ELECTRIC

Arriving in the UK in August for the first time is the very latest member of the Ultra Light family. This model is aimed fair and square at the electric style guitarist who seeks the super light weight and compact size benefits that the Ultra Light family demonstrates so well. This one though is fitted with a dual rail humbucker and a Tune-o-Matic adjustable bridge.

So, we now have a full scale electric guitar, but cut down to the very basic components so it will fit in your rucksack, backpack or even your bed-roll.

This guitar is passive and there are no batteries, knobs, switches or controls of any kind to add weight, complexity whilst reducing the risk of damage. 

Simply plug it in to an external headphone amp, effects processor or PC for silent practice or into a micro amp on the road or any handy amp or PA system if you want to perform for others. 

This guitar comes with a detachable lap rest frame and a good quality tailored gig bag. Without doubt the Ultra-Light family is a great solution for players on the go, on a budget and where space is at a premium but also for players that still demand a great quality guitar that plays well, feels right and puts a smile on your face.

This full 24 ¾ inch scale (just like a Les Paul) guitar weighs less than 3 pounds, making it the lightest and most compact guitar in the Traveler family.

You will not believe that a full scale guitar could be so easy to take with you.

This is the very special deluxe version of the Pignose guitar (PGG-259), finished in black with gold coloured hardware, special large inlaid block mother of pearl neck position markers and white binding around the body, neck and headstock - all of which add a rather sophisticated look and feel to this already cool guitar.

As Pignose say, "this guitar puts all the funk, grit, and power of a Pignose amplifier right inside a very playable, kickin' little guitar. Simply pull on the famous Pignose knob, crank it up, and the famous Pignose sound comes straight out of the guitar and into your face!"   Well, we can't really add anything to that now, can we?

The Pignose Deluxe features a full 24 ¼ inch scale, a 22-fret ebony fingerboard with bolt-on maple neck, fixed bridge with adjustable saddles and both standard ¼ inch and 3.5mm output jacks which also allows the guitar to drive headphones and a regular amp.
