The McPherson Carbon Fiber Touring Series Blackout Basketweave Guitar is built for players who need reliability, portability, and serious performance in a compact package. This 3/4 size model keeps the signature McPherson design elements intact, including the offset soundhole and cantilevered neck, while wrapping it all in a sleek blackout basketweave carbon fiber finish. Lightweight at just over four pounds and housed in a custom SKB hard case, it is designed to travel without compromise.
Do not let the smaller size fool you. With a 22 3/4 inch scale length and McPherson’s unique body architecture, this touring guitar delivers impressive projection and clarity for its footprint. The offset soundhole directs sound toward the player, making it feel more immersive and responsive, while the carbon fiber construction ensures consistency in any climate. The tone stays focused and articulate, whether it is being used for practice, songwriting, or plugged-in performance.
The playability feels dialed in and intentional. A cantilevered neck design improves sustain and balance, and the compensated nut and saddle help keep intonation clean across the fretboard. Gotoh 510 precision tuners with a 21:1 gear ratio provide smooth, accurate tuning adjustments, and the L.R. Baggs Element pickup system delivers a natural, dependable amplified tone. The McPherson Touring Series Blackout Basketweave is a serious tool for musicians who want a compact carbon fiber guitar that travels easily, performs consistently, and sounds far bigger than its size suggests.
