Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The EG-1 Custom combines a 24.75-inch full-scale electric-guitar layout with Traveler's headstock-free In-Body Tuning System. It is listed as 27% shorter and 50% lighter than a full-size electric, with a small ergonomic body. Active electronics include a built-in four-channel headphone amplifier, so private practice can move among clean, boost, overdrive, and distortion settings through headphones. An aux input lets you connect a mobile device for play-along tracks, while the 1/4-inch output supports an amplifier. A Shadow E-tuner is built into the pickup ring, and a deluxe gig bag is included.
