Traveler ESC Escape Mark III Alder, Natural Satin Overview
Traveler Guitar Escape Mark III Alder, Natural Satin
The standard against which all travel guitars are measured.
The Escape Mark III is a full 25 1/2""-scale acoustic/electric travel guitar with a headphone amp built in. The proprietary In-Body Tuning System uses standard tuning machines relocated into the body, eliminating the need for a headstock. As a result, you’ll have the same full-scale playing experience you’re used to on an instrument that’s 26% shorter and 47% thinner than a typical, full-sized acoustic.
The Escape Mark III features include an alder body with cutaway for high fret access, and a bolt-on maple neck. It has standard tuning machines and uses standard acoustic strings, measures only 29 1/2"" long, and is ready to play right out of the gig bag.

The built-in Shadow headphone amplifier produces a crisp, clean signal through headphones for private practice sessions. A Shadow Nanoflex pickup under the saddle senses the vibrations of the strings and body for an acoustic-style sound without the bulk of a resonant body. The control plate includes volume, treble and bass controls, a built-in chromatic tuner as well as a headphone output and aux-in for jamming along with your favorite tracks. A standard ¼"" output jack allows you to plug into your favorite amp.
The Escape Mark III is a perfect solution for traveling acoustic players unwilling to compromise on scale length, and looking for a compact yet comfortable guitar. Fits easily in airline overhead compartments in the included Deluxe Gig Bag.
