Overview

Gibson Generation Series G-Writer EC with Player Port and L.R. Baggs Element Pickup

The Gibson Generation Series G-Writer EC acoustic-electric guitar lets you hear every nuance of your playing and enjoy your music like never before. A Player Port soundhole located on the side of the guitar allows you to hear your tone exactly as your audience does with warmth and clarity. The balance of this tone is due in large part to the newly developed L.R. Baggs Element Bronze pickup system. This brings an even higher level of fidelity to the authentic acoustic tone of the Gibson G-Writer. Built with a mahogany neck, solid Sitka spruce top and walnut back and sides, this slightly thinner cutaway acoustic delivers resonance, volume and comfortable playability. Along with meticulous construction, updated electronics and design tweaks that will change the way you hear yourself, the Gibson Generation G-Writer EC also comes with a gig bag for convenient protection between rehearsal and performance.

Get immersed in your playing

The Generation Series G-Writer acoustic allows you to surround yourself in your tone and get lost in the sound of your playing. A Gibson Player Port soundhole is added to the side of the guitar which projects sound directly towards you, giving you a full representation of what your audience hears.

Innovative pickup system

The L.R. Baggs Element Bronze pickup system provides the Gibson Generation Series G-Writer with rich, balanced tone that you can rely on. Each one of these pickups is tested for balance and output to ensure you always get the full benefit of L.R. Baggs quality.

Tonewoods selected for balance and comfort

The Generation G-Writer guitar is made with a solid Sitka spruce top, walnut body and a striped ebony fingerboard and bridge. You’ll instantly notice the warm resonance of this Gibson acoustic, but what you’ll soon come to realize is that it sounds just as good playing virtually any genre. Additionally, the mahogany neck features an Advanced Response profile for optimal playing comfort, allowing you to explore for hours without fatigue.

Portable protective case

Take your G-Writer acoustic-electric anywhere with the included modern soft case. Whether it’s the rehearsal space, recording studio or performance venue, your Gibson Generation guitar will be safe and ready to roll anytime you are.

Cutaway Player Port acoustic designed for maximum sonic impact

Along with incredibly well-balanced sound and supremely comfortable playability, the Generation Series G-Writer EC acoustic-electric guitar is designed for a robust, immersive listening experience. You’ll love exploring acoustic tone in a whole different way, especially with the newly designed L.R. Baggs pickup. The G-Writer EC also features a TUSQ nut and saddle and Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners for solid tuning stability.
