EGC Electrical Guitar Company EGC1000S Acrylic

From the 60's to the 80's, Travis Bean, along with Kramer and Veleno, was the originator of the aluminum neck guitar.

Stanley Jordan, Gary Scheider of Funkadelic, Jerry Garcia, and many other guitarists used aluminum-necked guitars.

EGC (Electrical Guitar Company), the first brand to be released in this store, is a manufacturer in Alabama, USA, that makes guitars and basses with aluminum necks as their symbol.

EGC is a brand with deep modeling and enthusiasm regarding Travis Bean, and this model, EGC1000S Acrylic, is also a tribute to Travis Bean TB1000S.

The body, once made of koa wood, is now made of acrylic.

The body shape, pickups, pickguard, bridge, etc., follow the looks of the Lavis Bean, but the acrylic body gives it a unique presence.

As for the sound, the tight low sound of the acrylic body and the clear separation of the aluminum neck create a synergistic effect, and the sound is responsive and quite usable, the exact opposite of what it looks like. If you close your eyes, it is comparable to a guitar made of wood.

One more point of concern....

Yes, it weighs a whopping 5.94kg!

The number alone gives the impression that it's a bit on the heavy side, but when you actually hold it with the strap attached, it's well-balanced and you don't feel the head drop, so it feels lighter than it actually is.

The characteristic ultra-thin neck and flat fretboard curves allow for smooth and stress-free chalking, and from a playing standpoint, it is probably one of the easiest guitars to play.

This is a must-try for all types of guitarists, not to mention fans of Travis Bean.

It is the next level in terms of stage presence. If you are a rock star, please consider this guitar.
