Default A Few Travel Guitar Comparison Photos
In this episode it is all about the McPherson... note: the Journey is deeper on the high E side or maybe it's less deep on the Low E side...

Yes. It can be ordered without. The electronics control wheels are mounted in the soundport on this one. Very cool.

Savoy can have a sound port, or not. Just specify either way when you order.

It is really useful to see the guitars side by side in the same photo. Thanks, Kramster. The only thing missing is the Emerald X7, near as I can tell. X7 may not technically be considered a travel guitar, but is pretty close in overall dimensions to the Cargo.

It would have to travel to get to me... guess I better get one and soon. Then I'll have the old school center hole and newest school not center hole.

It can look like chicken wire as a bonus... that may only attract B flats...or A sharps at the most... but then Eric the Half a Bee might be ok.
