practical travel lute a la the Soloette or Aria AS-100C Sinsonido
"silent" travel guitars:

I took one of these on vacation and kept up my classical guitar
chops. I've also used it plugged into an amp for wedding gigs.
People think it looks cool, too. There are electric ouds and even
gambas nowadays as well. No such option for the lute...
I have a few design ideas but no wood working ability at all. If
you're a builder interested in cornering the market, feel free to
contact me!

That's close to my ideal. My present cases are mostly
made of wood and
significantly heavy and hard, not something I would want to
strap on my
back. A light-weight soft padded case on my back would
be a big
improvement.
