Are you a rockstar that has to catch the metro bus because your tour bus isn't done yet? Previous guitar makers tried making a guitar that folds once. Good idea, but still, it's a pretty awkward instrument to put in a case. Now take a look at the Electric Nomad.
The guitar is made for electronic wandering minstrels. The neck on the Electric Nomad folds twice - more than other foldable guitars. It's a competition size electric ax with all the regular features to give it complete playability. Except the darn thing folds up! Half its normal size! The neck folds, the strings roll up on a spool, and it features all the usual features, usability and playability of a normal electric guitar; however, it's designed to be taken on travel.
