Escape Mark III (Alder)

$860.00

Product Description

The best selling Escape series, reimagined.

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.

Full-scale. Fully loaded.

Why it’s a great travel companion

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.

In-Body Tuning System™

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.

Built-In Electronics and Headphone Amplifier

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.

Gig Bag Included

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.
