Overview

A compact electric guitar with bold tone and full-scale feel.

The Traveler Guitar EG-1 Deluxe electric guitar brings a full-scale playing experience to a lightweight, compact form built for life on the move. At just over 4 pounds, this travel-ready instrument maintains classic rock-and-roll attitude with a carved top body, robust humbucker and a 24.75" scale neck. The model's balanced weight and comfortable contours make it easy to play during long sessions, whether you're practicing in a backstage green room or writing music from your couch. With hardware and electronics that echo traditional electrics, this rig gives you arena-worthy sustain and punch without the size or heft, so you can focus on your music, not your luggage.

Carved Top Shape Reflects Rock Heritage

The EG-1 Deluxe features a carved top body, inspired by iconic electrics from the golden age of rock. This sculpted design not only looks striking but also helps project sound with clarity and sustain. The contoured top sits comfortably against the player's body, supporting long practice sessions and better control during performance. The finished edges and detailed carving give the instrument a sense of craftsmanship usually reserved for much heavier models. Thanks to this shape, the guitar delivers a familiar playing surface in a condensed package—making it easy to carry without sacrificing playability or tone.

Full-Size Humbucker Delivers Aggressive Tone

This travel electric features a full-size humbucker in the bridge position, engineered to create classic crunch and sustain. The pickup's high output and wide frequency range capture everything from growling lows to bright, biting leads. Players can use the responsive volume and tone controls to shape their sound, dialing in warmth or edge as needed. This humbucker responds well to different picking attacks, translating your dynamics directly into the amp. The result is an assertive voice that cuts through a mix and holds up on any stage, rehearsal or session.

Controls and Layout Streamline Playing

The EG-1 Deluxe puts all key controls within easy reach. Volume and tone knobs let you quickly adjust your sound, while the 1/4" output jack fits standard cables and pedalboards. The full-scale neck makes transitions between this unit and regular electrics feel natural. Its compact shape supports fast setup in tight spaces, and the included gig bag means you can move from location to location without hassle. Every aspect of the layout is designed to reduce setup time and keep the focus on your playing—not on gear logistics.

Mahogany and Maple Provide Strength and Longevity

This Traveler model uses a mahogany body and neck, known for their warmth and durability. The flame maple top on the Tobacco Sunburst, Gloss Black or Gold Top finish adds visual appeal and snap to the instrument's tone. The black walnut fingerboard offers a smooth, fast surface for chords or solos, resisting wear over time. Each component is selected for its ability to withstand road use and temperature changes. The build quality ensures the electric holds up under repeated travel, so you can count on it for years of dependable playing at home, on tour, or anywhere in between.

Get on the Road Again With the Traveler Guitar EG-1 Deluxe

Designed for musicians who need a real electric guitar in a portable size, the EG-1 Deluxe supports practice, songwriting and performance wherever inspiration strikes. The compact build eliminates the need for heavy gear while still delivering the sound and feel of a classic instrument. By combining a carved top, robust humbucker and durable materials, this travel guitar lets you focus on playing your best—whether in a crowded airport lounge or a packed club. The experience of this model means fewer compromises and more music, every time you pick it up.
