Solar Guitars has launched the Type H Guillotine, a new headless multiscale travel guitar model. It is available in either a 6-string or a 7-string configuration. Could Ola Englund’s latest model be enough for you to go headless on your travels?

Headless Travel Guitars?
I’m possibly the least likely guitarist to buy a ‘travel guitar’, as I just take a battered old Telecaster with me on my travels. However, I can see why a ‘headless travel guitar’ could be more convenient, as they would be shorter and possibly much lighter to carry.
Ola Englund’s Solar Guitars has just launched these two new models: the H2.6LN Lemon Neon and the Solar Guitars H2.7W White, as part of their Type H Guillotine series.

Lemon Neon
This super-bright 6-string Lemon Neon Matte model has a lightweight Nyatoh body and a 24.75-25.5 multiscale maple neck fitted with jumbo 24 frets on a rosewood fretboard.
The finish will burn your retinas, and the pair of passive Solar Modern Alnico 5 Multiscale humbuckers will shred with the best of them! Controls consist of a volume, tone, and 5-way pickup selector switch.
Hardware includes a rear tuning multiscale bridge and a headless locking nut, all in a black finish, so it stands out against the vibrant neon yellow finish.

H2.7W White
Next up, and following the same multi-scale headless formula, just with 7 strings and in a slightly less eye-watering White Matte finish, is the H2.7W White. This Type H “Guillotine” headless travel guitar goes one more with that extra string, but is essentially the same as the 6-string model above.

Both models ship with a gig bag, so they could be perfect for the shredder who travels a lot and needs a guitar for long trips. Again, as I mentioned at the start of this article, I am not the target audience for this type of guitar, but you might be.
