Anyone who loves the outdoors and also plays the guitar (even if you just know a few chords!) should have a camping guitar.
Sitting around the campfire, you’re the rock star you always thought you should be. Hey, who else is around to steal your thunder, right? All the attention is right where it should be–on you, my friend.
We’ve always found that people love a good singalong, and they’ll really let loose with their vocal prowess much more readily in the wild–if only to keep the bears away.
So what makes a good camping guitar? Well naturally, it’s got to be an instrument that you don’t mind scratching up a bit, dragging through the dirt, leaning on a tree–even using for firewood if necessary (kidding, sort of). Other than that, it’s just important to pick something that will stay in tune.
But the two most important things are: don’t ever spend any more than fifty bucks for a camping guitar, and never EVER play “The House at Pooh Corner” by Kenny Loggins.
