I got this off of eBay after having good luck with their electro-acoustic guitars. It is an Enorez Voyager. It is about 3" shorter than the Martin Backpacker and its' design will handle heavier strings. Plus it sits in a lap better. It is 32" long and weighs 2 lbs 6 oz. with a 23" Scale.
It has a one piece neck body, truss rod, and a floating bridge. I stuck a bolt under the strings at the zero fret/nut to get the action up to 1/4".

Sound? Well it is what it is. A somewhat woody banjo like tone, but good enough for throwing into a backpack and heading to the top of the mountain above my studio.
