Brilio.net/en - If youre a musician who travels often, The Tripper, a tech-savvy travel guitar made by Stranough Guitar Technology, might be your next best friend. The Tripper is sleek, simple yet smart, and amazingly portable. It can be played using its innovative amplification technology anywhere and anytime -- whether in your hotel room or at the top of a mountains summit as you sit down to take a break from your hike. It can even add an intriguing visual appeal and unique sound to performance settings.


The Tripper also has an authentic Indonesian origin. Stranough Guitar Technology manufactures The Tripper in Bandung; in fact, the brand has been patented as a state-of-the-art, stylish guitar made by urang Bandung (the Bandung people). The authentic Bandung touch, in other words, is a vital part of its success. Its origin and design have added a new artistic color to the music world, thanks to its intriguing construction, appearance, and capabilities.


For example, the guitars design team placed the headstock in the body of the guitar instead of in its traditional location on the head. At first glance, The Tripper appears to be a headless guitar. Yet The Tripper still uses normal tuning, though drop tuning is also possible.


The design team also made the fret scale to be very short, similar to the design of Fender and Jaguar guitars. And the scale only differs 0.75 inches compared to a Gibson guitar. This means The Tripper has superb playability.


To be sure, its portable design means it is a surprisingly small instrument, but it has huge capabilities for any musical genre, practice session, or performance setting. The Tripper can easily deliver a command performance on large stages. Its Mono Output, Preamp Output Power Switch, and 3.5mm Earphone Output means it can be amplified in a variety of ways, including plugging into the head amp of a cabinet and transforming a tiny guitar into a monstrous sound that can fill a stadium.

Using the Preamp Output Power Switch (which activates a low voltage 9-volt battery source), The Tripper can also be played over headphones or plugged into a smartphone or tablet. It can transform your smart device into a virtual practice amp when you download the AmpliTude iRig app and purchase the iRig guitar interface adapter.


These diverse features mean that The Tripper isnt just for travelers. Its also a powerful tool for professionals, students, children or even collectors.

The talented Stranough Guitar Technology team can also build custom guitars based on a customers requests; and this includes custom orders for The Tripper. Using personalized design methods, the team can build a mini-guitar like The Tripper that has special features and a look all your own.

And, as it turns out, The Tripper has been busy doing its own extensive traveling. As mentioned on MyTravelGuitar.com, The Tripper has been exported across the globe: Singapore, Tokyo and Hong Kong in Asia; Sydney in Australia; Turkey and Germany in Europe; and New York, USA.

So, say hello to The Tripper, the smart guitar made by urang Bandung.
