Get to know them!

At last, Traveler Guitar's EG-1 Custom gives you the full-scale features you want in a streamlined guitar that lets you take your music anywhere. Despite its undersized body, the EG-1 Custom delivers full-sized humbucker tone and the playability you demand. This full 24 3/4"-scale electric guitar fits easily in airplane overhead compartments or your luggage. What's more, the EG-1 Custom is a favorite around Sweetwater because of its impressive headphone amp, which comes complete with distortion (accessed via the push/pull tone knob) and a built-in tuner, so you can rock out anywhere - even in your hotel room when you've arrived at 2:00AM.

Ditch the bulk, not the scale length

Sure there are other so-called travel guitars out there, but the Traveler Guitar EG-1 Custom gives you something those shrunk-down models can't: real full-scale feel. That's because the EG-1 Custom's unique design manages to lose the excess bulk without trimming down its scale length. You don't even need to buy special strings! In the end, the EG-1 Custom gives you a super-portable guitar that still feels and acts like a regular, full-sized instrument in every way that matters.

Top-notch tonewoods and killer looks to go

An upgraded version of Traveler Guitar's original Escape EG-1 electric guitar, the EG-1 Custom gives you excellent tonewoods and classy looks to boot. First, there's the EG-1 Custom's combination of a lightweight and resonant mahogany body with a bound African mahogany neck — a tonewood combination that perfectly balances warmth, sparkle, and bite. Add to that gold hardware and block fretboard inlays and, small as it is, the Traveler Guitar EG-1 Custom is one good-looking electric guitar!

Packed with goodies and loaded with tone

No matter what guitar you play, nothing is more important than your tone. That's why Traveler Guitar loaded the EG-1 Custom with a full-sized classic-style humbucker. It sounds awesome! But when you show up at your hotel in the wee hours of the morning itching to rock out before you crash, no one's going to want to hear how great your axe sounds. Lucky for you, the EG-1 Custom features a built-in headphone output. Want to kick in some distortion? Just pull up on the tone pot and dig in. And since there's no point in playing out of tune, you'll also be sure to appreciate the Shadow tuner onboard your Traveler Guitar EG-1 Custom electric guitar.
