Over the course of many months, I’ve been documenting my experience with the Furch Little Jane LJ11-SR travel guitar—from the initial purchase to taking it on countless international and domestic flights. I’m thrilled with the 2k+ investment, and it’s convinced me that a full-sized Furch is next on my list. Along the way, I’ve created a lot of content about this guitar. So if you’re thinking about buying a Little Jane but need more information before committing, I’ve gathered all my posts and videos in one spot. Check out the links below—they cover everything from sound quality and build to how it handles airport security and cramped airplane cabins. What are your thoughts on the Little Jane? Let me know in the comments. *Note: I haven’t any affiliation with Furch in any way. I just really like this guitar.

It’s highschool, the early 90’s and we have some free time during our music/choir class. My best friend an I would bust out our guitars and jam to whatever we felt like. Some songs were just made up others were the pop songs of the time. I remember playing “Tears in Heaven” quite a bit and the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ “Under the Bridge” for my friends. Brings back good memories of my Jr and Sr year in HS. But there was one song that was our the top request, especially the girls. If you played guitar in the early 90’s ,this was a must. Can you guess it?! It’s an essential part of the GenX guitarist repertoire. As I wrote in the video description, if I had a dollar for everytime…. HA! But not complaining at all. It was a blast and fond memories of my early guitar and musical endeavours. Question: What GenX classics do you remember that were staples back in the day and what are the “More than Words” songs of today that all guitarists need to know?
Last week, I played a show and all was going well. Crowd was into it and we are playing pretty goodw as a group. We finished a song to end the first set and I grab the capo to put it back on my headstock, it slipped out of my hand and landed on the concrete floor and the capo exploded. The spring came dislodged and all the tension it provided is gone. The spring came dislodged and the capo was useless. Luckily, I only had one more song to perform that uses and capo and I was able to borrow it from my band mate. Making the switch Was thinking about using cradle style capos instead of the Kyser spring loaded ones. I liked the aspect of being able to move my capo above the nut when I’m not using it; easy access and storage. I saw that Billy Strings does the same thing and it made sense. I found out that he uses Elliot Capos and I’m sure they make a fine capo but I’m not going to spend 200+ dollars on one. Settled on the D’Addario cradle capo and so far so good. I noticed that my …
3 weeks, four flights and my Furch Little Jane guitar was the perfect companion for my trip to Scotland. Well, 2nd perfect after my wife, of course. I was so tired and wired with being in a different country, I didn’t play it until we got to Edinburgh and then it was pretty much every day since. So I’ll get down to the nitty gritty because If you’re traveling, you might want to know this. Getting around the airport You can either use the backpack option or use the handle and carry it like a briefcase. I already had a backpack so I did the briefcase option. There was place where you could put the Little Jane on your baggage handle and roll it around but for my suitcase, it wouldn’t fit. The handle was too wide. This may work better with a carry on suitcase but I didn’t use one for this trip. Something to keep in mind. Airport Security I’ve been on total of 6 flights with my Little Jane and it’s only been set to the side for further inspection once and that was on this trip. As soon as the TSA worker saw it, he let …
My YouTube channel for guitar is back! I’ve resurrected my YouTube channel and started posting videos again. So far so good. I get a decent amount of views and some thumbs up/likes as well. With my last video, I got a couple of dislikes and I gotta say, I’m stoked!! I feel like it’s a right of passage to get a dislike or two. Don’t get me wrong, I still want the majority of the feedback to be good but there’s just something about that dislike. haha! Reaching a larger audience? Maybe I’m getting onto more screens and with that, a larger chance that someone won’t like it? Who knows and nobody gets 100% likes on any social media platform. I still have a long way to go to build my channel but I’ll take this little win. If you would like to extend some support, please subscribe to my YouTube channel. More videos to come and currently working on a solo acoustic album and clips of my new stuff will be featured.
