Marketed as a travel guitar, the Donner HUSH-X combines the feel and performance of a classic solidbody with the sleek convenience of a headless design. It’s a full-sized guitar that fits snugly into a compact case resembling a pool cue bag.

Available in gorgeous mahogany, you can choose between four stunning finishes: sunburst, natural, black, and metallic white. The HUSH-X boasts a one-piece neck-through-body design, featuring lightweight metal frames for added stability.

Save 20% Donner Hush-X: was $349.99 now $279.99 at Amazon This travel guitar seriously surprised us with it’s tone. In our review Chris said, “the sound is so good that I’m starting to question whether the expensive exotic tone woods that so many guitarists lust over really make much of a difference.” High praise indeed for a budget-friendly travel axe.

Its headless design features a six-saddle fixed bridge, complete with handy thumbscrew tuners that make tuning a breeze. With a 25 ½-inch scale, 22 medium frets, an asymmetrical profile, an HPL fingerboard, a 403mm radius, and a 1.65-inch wide bone nut with a zero fret, it’s engineered for playability.

Now, let’s talk tone. The HUSH-X offers a killer pickup setup, blending a robust high-output humbucker (clocking in at around 13k ohms) with a sprightly Alnico V single-coil (about 5.4k ohms) positioned nearer to the middle of the guitar. This combination delivers a delightful mix of modern crunch and vintage sweetness. Plus, with a concentric master volume/tone knob, an active/passive switch, and a 1/8-inch Aux input along with headphone output, you can unleash your creativity anytime, anywhere.

What we said in our review What we said in our review Chris Gill Contributor “The minimal design of the Donner Hush-X certainly is compact and lightweight enough to deserve its ‘travel guitar’ distinction, but it performs every bit as well as a traditional full-size solidbody, making it a great, affordable all-around axe.” Read more: Full Donner Hush-X solidbody guitar review
