It is evening by the fire, everyone wants to sing and... the guitar stayed home, because it did not fit in the car. Sound familiar? For the road there is a pile of small musical instruments that you simply throw in a backpack and they play great. We look at travel guitars, the guitalele, the kalimba and the cajon, which replaces a whole drum kit at the campfire.

Drumsticks all look the same, but you feel the difference between 5A, 7A and 2B in the first second of playing. We explain what the numbers and letters mean, when to take a wooden and when a nylon tip, and which drumsticks are best for a beginner.

A capo is a small clamp that opens up hundreds of songs without learning new chords. We will show you how a capo works, how to put it on the guitar correctly and which type to choose. And why many guitarists will not leave home without one.
