The revolutionary Ortega TourPlayer allows you to experience the warm resonance of nylon strings in an electric guitar. Meticulously crafted for live performance, this innovative crossover guitar eliminates the feedback issues inherent in amplified nylon-string guitars so you can explore a world of new sounds.

Hollow Body for Full Resonance

The TourPlayer's Okoume body features hollow chambers that reduce weight while improving resonance for a rich, expressive tone. Combined with a spruce top, the hollow build produces the depth and projection of an acoustic guitar with the power of an electric.

    Got the blue version from GC last September. Needed to have the frets dressed but no big deal. I use this for duo gigs, alternating with my archtop. At the 1 year mark the position markers peeled off (they're stickers) but easy to replace. Played through a Fishman Loudbox and Tonedeq it sounds tremendous. I really like the USB charging vs 9v battery it takes less than 5 minutes to charge and lasts for hours. Note that the battery is draining if you leave it plugged in, so unplug when you stop playing for the day.
