Guild Surfliner Solidbody Electric Guitar - Catalina Blue

Guild Surfliner Solidbody Electric Guitar - Catalina Blue

A wallet-friendly offset for the masses! Guild’s Surfliner takes the sleek '60s style of a traditional offset guitar and hot rods it with performance-minded features for guitarists who require an instrument with rock-solid stability. The Surfliner’s lightweight poplar body and offset-waist body shape provide an unmatched comfort — both sitting and standing. The smooth maple-on-maple neck’s Narrow Jumbo frets and 10-inch radius ensure smooth playability for players of all stripes. What about versatility? The Surfliner has it in spades, boasting an HSS configuration comprised of two Aersonic single coils and an LB-1 mini humbucker in the bridge, taking you everywhere from surfy drip to all-out crunch. Finally, the string-through body and the Tune-o-matic bridge are ideal for players who love the offset look, but prefer a more streamlined hardware setup.

Versatile HSS pickup configuration

While this guitar takes inspiration from the surf guitars of the ‘60s, the Surfliner’s modernized HSS pickup combo can cover almost any style you can throw at it! The Guild LB-1 mini humbucker bridge pickup provides a full, punchy tone that’s equally at home with twangy tremolo picking as it is with fuzzed-out garage rock lead tones. Two Aerosonic pickups in the middle and the neck position bring the single-coil clarity, ideal for players looking to capture more traditional offset-style guitar tones.

Comfortable maple neck

The Surfliner sports a beautiful maple-on-maple neck that’s loaded with features to deliver a versatile and comfortable playing experience. The 10-inch fingerboard radius is curved enough to deliver both easy open-position playing and wide enough to prevent your bends from choking out when exploring the Surfliner’s higher register. Finally, the “C” shape neck is sure to make players of all varieties feel right at home when playing the Surfliner — it’s the standard guitar neck shape for a reason!

Sleek offset style

Everything about the Surfliner simply oozes offset style! From the oversized swooping headstock to the three rocking on/off pickup switches (a nod to the wild guitar designs of the '60s), the Surfliner is sure to capture the attention of any audience. Plus, it’s not all cosmetic! Apart from looking cool, many guitarists find that offset-waist guitars are some of the most comfortable guitars to play seated.
