For three decades Traveler Guitar has been producing quality guitars and basses made for travel, on the road. These small-scale guitars can fit in tiny spaces, and are light weight, for traveling musicians.

Traveler guitars are compact in size, but play with a giant sound. They feature a variety of tuning systems, headphone amps, and onboard electronics. They are designed to let you practice, play, or record, while traveling, wherever the road takes you.

The Vaibrant Series is Traveler Guitar’s line of  guitars, that were inspired by  an ‘80s classic. They were modeled after Ibanez’s Stevie Vai JEM guitars. Vaibrants are space-saving, full-scale, road-ready travel axes. They feature a next-level fit, finish, and custom parts. The Traveler Guitar’s Vaibrant Deluxe features a Floyd Rose tremolo, upgraded pickups, fingerboards, and inlays.

6 String Vaibrant Standard Electric Yellow

This is Traveler Guitar’s new generation of travel guitars, that were designed for players with, more aggressive musical styles. The body shape resembles the Stevie Vai JEM. The size of the guitar is only slightly larger than the pickguard. It has only the essential contours, to reduce the guitar’s size and weight. 

The Vaibrant 88 Deluxe is the upgraded model, and it looks amazing. This is a travel guitar, meaning it’s portable. This guitar is much more than just a travel, practice guitar. It has a killer sound and playability. You will want to play it all the time: at home, onstage, and in the studio.

These guitars are well made and produce a huge sound. The Traveler Guitar Vaibrant 88 Deluxe comes with three Traveler V88D pickups, plus two humbucking pickups. 

 The 5-way switching knob  gives you an expansive tonal range and dynamic sensitivity. There are two control knobs, for master volume, and master tone. 

6 String Vaibrant Deluxe Cosmic Black

They are within easy reach of your pinky, so you can make adjustments to your sound quickly. It delivers a range of tone qualities, from chimey single-coil rhythms to humbucker-fueled, high-gain leads. The Vaibrant is capable of  producing a huge variety of tones, for any guitarist.

The Vaibrant is a traditionally crafted, solid body guitar that feels great to play. The body is crafted from alder, which is a popular tonewood. It is known for producing beautiful sounds and for being a light weight wood. The neck is made from maple, and is bolted on to the body.

It has a classic design, with the addition of a comfortable neck heel contour.  Traveler Guitar didn’t hold back any details. They installed a Floyd Rose 1000FRT vibrato bridge/tailpiece to allow reliable pitch expression. It maintains a rock-solid intonation, while played.

If you’re into playing heavy, aggressive music, the Vaibrant 88 Deluxe is perfect. It has the best qaualities of a great instrument, in a compact package, that’s ready for the road. From the tip of the headstock to the back of the bridge, the guitar is considerably shorter, and lighter, than full-sized solid body electric guitars. 

You get all the great, quality features, that make a great instrument. The Vaibrant 88 Deluxe will easily fit in your luggage, duffel bag, backpack, and in an overhead compartment, of an airplane.  It also comes with a custom, low-profile gig bag.
