~Last chance to snag the ThreeQuart Trekker with the on-board OP24+ (Clearance Priced!) :D
Rare A/E 3/4 Trekker
But WAIT!!! That's not all...I'm letting go of my little slice of BeattleMania Memorabilia - a Miniature Fender Strat designed by Yoko Ono, along with the original sheet music (circa 1972/'80/'82) of "Imagine"..."Starting Over"...and..."Ebony & Ivory"...I know there's a few Strat lovers/Lennon fans who'd appreciate the chance to add these to the display case!
Yoko Strat + Lennon/McCartney Music
This is a Waaay Coool Guitar, and the pic's don't do it justice...
Thanks for your support and encouragement in the quest for Ovationary Bliss~ |

Location: Gig Harbor, Washington | Wask~ That's what I'm told - though I've never tried to take it aboard...the current security climate makes me a little paranoid (or more than I naturally am!). I suppose one could call the local airline desk and get the max dimensions of the overhead bin. I'll see if I can find that out, and post the spec's. Peace, Love & JuJu~ |

Jetblue lets on guitars, even though they exceed the dimension specs. Typically, 45 total inches domestic. Other airlines are sticklers and have other dimension specs. |

Location: closely held secret | Um... this one is going a little farther than domestic...
I'll probably just take my Balladeer and check it. |

Location: Utah | I wouldn't put an instrument in the overhead unless it were in a hardshell case. The larger aircraft such as 767 will have a closet for hanging up long coats, especially for the first and business class passengers. You might be able to sweet talk the flight attendant into putting your 3/4 size guitar in the closet. Just be pleasant and act like you are asking for a favor and the FA's will usually treat you well. (Be demanding of them and they will go out of their way to make your trip miserable.) |

Location: closely held secret | It was just a thought. I bought a slightly beat up Balladeer just for this purpose.
I just remembered why I check them on long trips. I'll already have loads to have to carry. The guitar will have to watch out for itself. Hopefully it will arrive and in one piece. |
