The McPherson Carbon Touring Camo with black hardware is a masterclass in modern acoustic design, built for players who demand uncompromising tone, comfort, and reliability in a truly portable instrument. At just 4 lbs 2 oz, this 3/4 size Touring model delivers a surprisingly expansive voice that feels far larger than its compact footprint, making it an ideal companion for travel, stage, or daily inspiration.
McPherson’s carbon fiber construction is the foundation of this guitar’s magic. Immune to temperature and humidity changes, it offers unwavering stability and consistency wherever your music takes you. The non adjustable truss rod is a testament to that stability, as carbon fiber simply does not move like wood. What you feel in your hands today is exactly what you can expect years from now.
The offset soundhole and cantilevered neck are signature McPherson innovations, allowing the top to vibrate more freely for increased sustain, clarity, and dynamic response. Notes bloom effortlessly, with a balanced, articulate character that rewards both fingerstyle nuance and confident strumming. The soft V neck profile, paired with a 22 3/4 inch scale and 1 3/4 inch nut width, provides a comfortable, intuitive playing experience that feels immediately familiar yet distinctly refined.
Dimensionally, the Touring body strikes a perfect balance between portability and resonance, with a 13 inch lower bout, 4 inch body depth, and 14 frets to the body. The composite nut and saddle contribute to excellent note definition and long term durability, while enclosed Schaller tuners ensure smooth, precise tuning stability.
Plugged in, the L.R. Baggs Element active system with onboard volume control delivers a natural, transparent amplified sound that faithfully represents the guitar’s acoustic voice. Elixir Nanoweb medium gauge strings come installed, though the guitar is equally happy with other string types depending on player preference.
Finished in a striking camo aesthetic with black hardware, this McPherson Carbon Touring is as visually distinctive as it is sonically impressive. Complete with a hardshell case, it is a forward thinking instrument for players who want world class performance, total reliability, and inspiring tone in a lightweight, go anywhere guitar.
