For musicians who love to travel, the biggest challenge is often the simplest one: how do you take your guitar with you?
Traditional electric guitars are bulky, fragile when travelling, and almost impossible to carry onto planes without worrying about damage in the hold. That’s why more musicians are discovering the freedom of collapsible electric travel guitars.
At Journey Instruments UK, we offer a range of innovative electric travel guitars and bass guitars designed to go wherever you do. With a clever detachable neck system and compact travel cases, these instruments pack down small enough to travel easily while still delivering the feel and playability of a full instrument.
Our electric range includes the OE990 Electric Travel Guitar, OEB990 Collapsible Bass Guitar, and the stylish OT990 Texan Electric Travel Guitar — all designed for musicians who want to take their music anywhere.
OE990 Electric Travel Guitar – The Ultimate Portable Electric Guitar
The OE990 Electric Travel Guitar is a powerful solution for guitarists who want a portable electric guitar without sacrificing playability.
Thanks to Journey’s patented collapsible neck system, the guitar can be quickly disassembled and packed into a compact travel bag that fits within many airline cabin luggage requirements. This makes it perfect for:
Travelling musicians
Touring guitarists
Campervan and vanlife adventures
Songwriters on the road
Airline travel with a guitar
Once assembled, the OE990 plays and feels like a full instrument, giving players the freedom to practice, rehearse, or perform wherever they are.
If you're looking for a travel electric guitar that combines portability with performance, the OE990 is a fantastic option.
OEB990 Collapsible Electric Bass – A Travel Bass That Grooves Anywhere
Bass guitars have traditionally been some of the most difficult instruments to travel with — until now.
The OEB990 Electric Travel Bass brings the same innovative collapsible design to bass players who want a portable bass guitar for travel, touring, or practice.
The neck removes quickly so the bass can be packed into a compact travel bag, making it far easier to transport than a traditional bass guitar case.
Whether you're:
Recording ideas on the road
Practicing while travelling
Playing at open mic nights
Jamming around the campfire
…the OEB990 travel bass ensures the groove never stops.
For bassists who want a collapsible bass guitar that is easy to travel with, this model offers the perfect balance of portability and performance.
The OT990 Texan Electric Travel Guitar combines the spirit of a classic electric guitar with the convenience of a modern collapsible travel design.
With bold looks and a strong stage presence, the Texan proves that a portable guitar can still have personality.
Like the other guitars in the Journey range, the neck separates quickly, allowing the instrument to fit into a compact travel case that is ideal for musicians on the move.
The OT990 Texan is perfect for:
Gigging musicians
Travelers' and digital nomads
Campervan and vanlife musicians
Players attending festivals or open mic nights
For players who want a stylish electric travel guitar, the Texan offers portability without losing attitude.
Practice Anywhere with the HA01 Headphone Guitar Amp
A travel guitar becomes even more powerful when you can practice anywhere — and that’s exactly what the HA01 Headphone Amp allows you to do.
This compact headphone amp plugs directly into your guitar, allowing you to practice silently through headphones without needing a traditional amplifier.
Perfect for:
Hotel rooms
Late-night practice
Campervans
Flights and travel stops
Quiet practice anywhere
The HA01 transforms any space into your personal practice studio, making it the ideal companion for a collapsible electric travel guitar.
