Hey Bronson, I own and use a Mullen Discovery for fly dates. Great guitar. There's 1 for sale on the Forum right now.

My traveler is an EXCEL S-11 E9. I have the original case but also use a padded shotgun case which is even lighter and easier to fit in the overhead. I’ve built in a few effects and use a MOYO volume pedal and TC clipon tuner so everything goes in that bag no problem.

Bronson,
I have a S-10, 3x4 MCI I'm getting ready to list. I bought it as a fly guitar for a tour that never materialized. 48 lbs. in the case. Let me know if you're interested.
