This listing is for a unique hand-made guitar designed to give a full-scale playing experience in a travel-sized package. My Oakcaster guitars feature hex-bolt neck fixing for quick release and perfect ‘return to playing action’ operation when reassembled. The body is made from a single piece of English air-dried oak. The neck is maple and rosewood with a short headstock and Wilkinson 19:1 tuners for smooth accurate tuning. The pickups are Epiphone Classic Alnico II units and the guitar features a simple wrap around bridge for maximum stability and sustain. The guitar design is a double-cut version of my earlier 'single-cut' Oakcasters.  The neck is secured with a single hex bolt / threaded M8 insert for simple assembly / disassembly on location. These guitars have the weight of a regular guitar, the low playing action and tuning stability of a professional instrument and the tone options for live performance wherever you take it; beach, hotel room or party. With the neck off, the guitar fits easily into a medium-sized suitcase where it is virtually indestructible so no worries about damage by baggage handlers and no additional carriage expense. Each guitar is unique and has small imperfections as shown in the pictures. Recent feedback from Reloved customers: This is the best setup video I have seen. Your information just saved my guitar.

I buy up good quality (but badly-set up) electric guitars that have been abandoned by frustrated owners and give each one a professional set-up so that it plays better than guitars costing 5 times as much.Each Reloved guitar comes with a link to its own individual workshop HD video (see the link above) to give you confidence in the work that was done on your guitar. Better yet, I explain what I’m doing every step of the way so that you can learn how to set up a guitar yourself and know what to look for when buying second hand.I believe it’s a MYTH that only expensive guitars are good guitars and it was my aim to demonstrate that a well set-up basic learner guitar will outperform many expensive off-the-hangar brand name guitars. Once you play this Reloved guitar and watch the workshop video, you’ll understand why. Payment: by PayPal only please (for both our protection).
