Premier Guitar

Traveler Guitar's newest is designed for vintage fans looking for a guitar to take on the road



Redlands, CA (January 8, 2010) -- Traveler Guitar has announced the release of their latest model, the Escape EG-1 Vintage Gold. The guitar is designed for vintage fans looking for a full scale travel instrument that has the same feel as a classic.

The Escape EG-1 Vintage Gold is a full-scale electric guitar featuring a compact single-cutaway body shape that provides vintage looks and modern comfort to the traveling guitarist. With crown inlays, gold bell knobs, a chrome-covered humbucker with cream pickup ring and its Vintage Gold finish, this guitar looks and feels like a travel-sized version of a timeless instrument. In addition, it is the first guitar in the EG-1 family to feature a 24 ¾” scale length.

Weighing in at just 4 pounds and measuring only 28 5/8” long, the EG-1 is an ideal carry-on guitar that stows easily in airline overhead compartments. The EG-1’s built-in Pocket RockIt headphone amp is custom-designed to produce classic clean and distortion sounds through headphones or when plugged into an amplifier. Players can also go passive into their amp of choice. The EG-1’s onboard electronics include a 1/8” AUX IN jack so players can jam with tracks from an external device such as an mp3 or CD player.

The Escape EG-1 also boasts more traditional guitar features such as a Mahogany body and neck, ebonized rosewood fretboard, standard strap pins and a fully adjustable truss rod. Includes Deluxe Gig Bag and comes standard with D’Addario EXL-110 strings.

Personally, I think it's fan-fu@%*^g-tastic! Finally there's a way to noodle (& hear what you're noodling) in a car, plane, bus etc. My husband loves to sit & noodle when we're on vacation...you know, in the evening in the hotel while the kids & I are watching TV or snoozing. I think this is awesome & can't wait to get one for my husband. The only negative I can think of is that, since my hubs plays vintage Pauls, he may not like the tone etc. But hey, it's still better than nothing!
