The original Viator and Viator USB are nifty twists on the compact acoustic/travel guitar theme, so we're pleased to see the addition of a 12-string guitar to Paul Brett's stable.
As well as those six additional strings, the Viator 12-string boasts a solid Sitka spruce top and sapele back and sides, plus a nato V-shape neck with rosewood fingerboard.
Elsewhere, a Graph Tech NuBone nut is onboard, as is a Fishman Sonitone pickup system with soundhole-mounted preamp system and USB output.
You can hear the guitar in action in what we assume is Paul's gloriously arranged garden above.
Handy for the shimmer-loving guitarist on the move, this. The Vintage Viator 12-string is available now for £349.
