In Matala bay

,

Dear Voyage Air Guitar staff,

You repeatedly ask your customers for their story with the foldable guitars.

You’ve got me finally, here’s mine:

I always loved to play guitar especially at my holiday locations. I was really tired of squeezing that little children’s guitar into my baggage when I stumbled upon your guitars.

I ordered a VAOM-04 in January 2018, and ever since it was a breeze to carry a full sized guitar with folded neck as carry-on baggage onto the plane. Wow, what a change!

The folks at customs still give me odd looks sometimes, but more out of curiosity than suspicion.

I spend my holidays in Matala- a little fisherman’s village at the south coast of the Isle of Crete in the Mediterranean.

Greek mythology tells that Zeus abducted beautiful Europe in the shape of a white bull and went ashore in Matala bay, where they made love.

But the little village is really famous for the thousands of hippies who sought refuge, peace and love in the 60s and 70s, in the stone caves above the sea. Joni Mitchell and Cat Stevens walked on Matala beach, each meeting his own love story there.

I dared to take up these stories and made a song of it to catch the very special feeling of this place.

You can watch the music video on YouTube. The acoustic guitar parts are all played on the Voyage air guitar with its crispy clear sound.
The guitar is accompanied by traditional Cretan instruments played to perfection by Giannis Xaralampakis, a brilliant Greek musician, and a good friend.

I am Mick Melt, and I hope you will enjoy my song:

Professional guitar, with the ingenious Voyage-air folding neck

Dear Voyage Air staff,

I took the BelAir and made it into a Pro guitar. Thought you might like to see a couple pics.

  • Replaced the pickups with Monty’s Guitars London, England, handmade PAF replicas (arguably the best in the world).
  • Also, from Monty’s, 50’s wiring loom, pots, NOS capacitor.
  • Cut and painted pickguard with new knobs.
  • New pickup rings, and locking Gotoh tuners. (For personal taste, slightly aged top with minor sanding and sanded gloss off on head.)

Now…it’s a professional guitar, with the ingenious Voyage-air folding neck.

Best regards,
Steve G.

Every touring guitarist should know about your brilliant products.

Hello VA –

I’m pleased to have just purchased a used VAOM-06 for my next (hopefully) UK/EU 2022 tour.

Having previously had my checked guitar destroyed by an airline, it’s an great guitar in general and the fact I can carry it on for overhead on the plane is a huge bonus. I plan on featuring mentioning your guitar on my tour updates. Every touring guitarist should know about your brilliant products.

I play a lot of open tunings and use an unwound .020 third string. As such, it intonates differently from a wound third string. The difference being the bridge slant for that string is thrown back rather than forward to intonate better with the unwound string. Would it be possible to get a blank uncompensated bridge insert that I might compensate myself? I’ve done that on my other guitars with great success.

Much thanks and continued success.

Every year, to Colombia..

,

My Premier Series VAD-02 solid Rosewood guitar has gone with me every year, to Colombia, South America for the last nine years!

My wife’s family consists of multiple, talented musicians and we love to play together to celebrate birthdays, holidays or just for fun.

My Voyage Air dreadnought has weathered the travel and the change in climate perfectly and has opened up to become an unbelievably rich sounding instrument!

I have 3 other acoustic guitars, including a Martin D-41 and my Voyage Air sweetheart easily holds its own in comparison.

I couldn’t be happier!

I wish that Voyage Air would start making this model again because I would buy 2 more!
