Journey Instruments FP41213C First Class Parlor – Solid Spruce and Mahogany

Classic Parlor Soul with Modern Functionality

The FP41213C combines the coveted, focused tone of a traditional Parlor guitar with the market's most advanced travel system. By using solid sitka spruce in combination with mahogany, Journey has created an instrument with a warm, articulate, and inspiring tone. The 13-fret construction provides a unique balance between compact size and resonance normally only found in larger guitars.

First-Class Ergonomics

This is not just a travel guitar; it's an instrument designed for maximum comfort. The FP41213C features an integrated armrest that eliminates sharp edges against your forearm, and the patented "Wedge" design allows the guitar to sit closer and more naturally against your body. The deep cutaway also gives you full access to the entire fretboard, making it perfect for both technical fingerstyle and solo playing.

Travel with Style and Security

The patented system allows you to dismantle the neck in under 20 seconds without the need for tools. When packed in the included travel backpack, the guitar is protected and ready for the airplane's overhead bin or under the seat in front of you. The First-Class travel backpack also has ample space for a laptop and other equipment, making it the only bag you need for your journey.

Built-in JourneyTek Pickup

The FP41213C is ready for both amplifier and studio with its passive JourneyTek 3-piezo pickup system. The system is designed to reproduce the natural, acoustic character of the guitar without coloring the sound or requiring batteries. It is simple, reliable, and sounds professional every time you plug in the cable.

Compact Size, Big Sound:
With its parlor body shape, the FP41213C is remarkably comfortable to hold and play, making it an excellent choice for intimate moments or as a couch guitar. The neck meets the body at the 13th fret, a unique design that often contributes to a more open and resonant tone, especially in the bass register, while providing good access to most positions on the fretboard.

Unparalleled Travel Freedom:
At the core of Journey's travel guitar philosophy is the patented detachable neck, which allows you to dismantle the guitar in just 20 seconds. It then packs safely into the included specially designed backpack case, engineered to fit as carry-on luggage on most airlines. This gives you the freedom to take your valuable instrument everywhere, without stress or expensive special baggage fees.

Robust and Climate-Adapted:
Although the FP41213C is made of solid wood, it is constructed with robustness in mind. This, combined with a stable neck, makes it well-suited to withstand various climates and temperature fluctuations – an important advantage for us in the Nordic climate.

Ready for Stage and Studio:
The guitar is equipped with Journey's own pickup system, ready for amplification on stage or in the studio, delivering a clear and rich sound in all settings.

The Journey FP41213C is the perfect choice for the guitarist seeking a compact, travel-ready solution with the authentic and developing tone of solid wood.
