Guild Surfliner Deluxe Electric Guitar in Evergreen Metallic

The Guild Surfliner Deluxe in Evergreen Metallic takes the laid-back cool of a vintage offset and injects it with modern playability and seriously versatile tones. With an HSS pickup configuration, Guild Floating Vibrato Tailpiece and a sleek roasted Maple neck, it is built to cover everything from glassy surf cleans to punchy rock riffs and smooth lead work, all wrapped up in a striking metallic finish with matching headstock.

Inspired by the Pacific coastline, the Surfliner Deluxe blends classic offset styling with contemporary features that make it a joy to play day after day. The lightweight Poplar body keeps things comfortable for long sets, while the satin-finished C-shaped roasted Maple neck and bound Rosewood fingerboard with block inlays feel fast, familiar and reassuringly solid under the fingers.

At the heart of the Surfliner Deluxe is its HSS pickup set, pairing a Guild HB-2 humbucker at the bridge with two DeArmond Aerosonic single coils. Controlled by a traditional 5-way blade switch, you get everything from bold, mid-rich humbucker drive to sparkling single-coil chime and classic in-between tones, with hum-cancelling options ready for stage and studio. Whether you are playing indie, surf, funk, blues or modern rock, there is a usable sound in every position.

For expressive players, the new Guild Floating Vibrato Tailpiece opens up a wide range of pitch effects, from subtle shimmers to deeper warbles. Designed specifically for the Surfliner Deluxe, it features an embossed Guild G and an adjustable tension screw so you can dial in exactly how the bar feels under your hand, keeping control and comfort at the forefront.

Roasted Maple Neck with Premium Fingerboard Appointments

The Surfliner Deluxe introduces Guild’s first roasted Maple neck, offering increased stiffness and stability along with a darker, aged look that oozes character. The satin finish and comfortable C-shaped profile make it easy to move around the 25.5 inch scale, while the bound Rosewood fingerboard and block inlays add a touch of classic elegance and a smooth, refined playing surface.

Versatile HSS Pickup Configuration

With a Guild HB-2 humbucker in the bridge and DeArmond Aerosonic single coils in the middle and neck positions, the Surfliner Deluxe delivers a huge tonal palette. The HB-2, loaded with Alnico II magnets, captures the rich, warm voice of vintage Guild humbuckers with tight lows and sparkling highs, while the Aerosonics provide clear, chiming single-coil tones. The traditional 5-way blade switch gives instant access to everything from raw, cutting bridge sounds to warm neck tones and classic in-between textures.

Guild Floating Vibrato Tailpiece

The Guild Floating Vibrato Tailpiece has been developed specifically for the Surfliner Deluxe to expand its expressive capabilities. It allows you to add subtle vibrato or more dramatic pitch bends with ease, while the nylon insert and accessible tension screw let you fine-tune the feel of the arm to suit your playing style. The embossed G adds a touch of Guild heritage to the hardware.

Lightweight Offset Body with Evergreen Metallic Finish

Built from solid Poplar, the Surfliner Deluxe body keeps weight down without sacrificing resonance, making it ideal for long rehearsals and gigs. Its offset silhouette nods to classic surf-era designs, while the high-gloss Evergreen Metallic finish and matching headstock give it a modern, stage-ready look that stands out under the lights.
