IMPORTANT! Please read these step-by-step instructions and watch the included instructional DVD before attempting to assemble your Voyage-air Guitar. Personal injury and damage to your guitar can result if the instrument is not handled properly.

Note: All Voyage-air Guitars are shipped with little or no string tension, tuning to your desired pitch will be required after assemling the guitar. (For safety considerations we recommend that you always de-tune your guitar prior to releasing the hinge-locking mechanism.)

Unpacking the Voyage-air Guitar:

Step 1) Set the Voyage-air Guitar case on a stable surface with flat side down and open it.

Step 2) Release the velcro strap and remove the guitar from the case with your right hand by grasping the
top of the neck and lifting.

Step 3) Rotate the guitar so the strings are facing to your right. Now tuck the guitar under your left arm while placing the heel of your left hand against the upper back of the guitar. Make sure your palm and fingers remain clear when you close the hinge. Now, close the hinge by bracing the guitar with your left hand, while pushing the neck with your right hand. Tighten the strap button with your left thumb and index finger and it’s ready to play.

Packing the Voyage-air Guitar:

Step 1) Place the open case flat side down on a stable surface. Place the ends of the straps outside of the case.

Step 2) Tuck the guitar under your left arm. Brace the body with your left hand and apply counter pressure against the neck with you right hand. Maintain the counter pressure and loosen the strap button counterclockwise. Allow the hinge to spring open.

Step 3) Stand the bottom of the body in the case and lower the upper body into the case while folding the neck with your left hand. Tuck the strings into the soundhole with your right hand. Then fasten the straps over the body and lower the neck into the neck rest on the strap. Close and secure the case.

On some models, the unique back-pack comes equipped with a removable accessory case for carrying your laptop and other gear. Since different types of travel require flexibility, the accessory section can be easily removed by a main zipper and used separately. Removing this section also makes the case thinner and lighter.
