Gibson’s Generation Collection is a new line of acoustic guitars purpose built for players to hear more of themselves. Building on Gibson’s rich history of innovation, the Generation Collection features Gibson’s Player Port, a revolutionary design feature that projects the guitar’s sound towards the player, enabling them to hear the guitar just as the audience would.
The Gibson Generation Collection G-Writer EC is a square-shouldered cutaway electro acoustic capable of producing a wide range of sounds from gutsy and loud to soft and sweet. A popular choice for rock, pop, folk and country players, the G-Writer EC shines whether you’re a fingerpicker of a strummer. Featuring a Sitka Spruce Top and Walnut back and sides, the G-Writer EC has a powerful yet mellow tone with the Ebony fingerboard giving it a pleasant snappiness. Boasting a TUSQ® nut and saddle, along with a set of Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuners, the G-Writer EC delivers solid tuning stability so you can spend more time playing instead of tuning! The G-Writer EC also comes loaded with an LR Baggs Element Bronze pickup so it is ready to hit the stage or recording studio when you are!
Key Features
- Gibson Player Port – First introduced by Gibson in 1964, this innovative design feature allows the player to hear the guitar in the same way the audience would. A separate sound hole on the side of the guitar projects the sound towards the player for an improved playing experience.
- Handmade in the USA – Built by the same skilled luthiers who build all Gibson acoustics in Bozeman, Montana.
- Satin Finish – Allows the wood to breathe and project further. It also won’t become “sticky” when playing in hot environments.
- Advanced Response Neck Profile – This easy-playing neck profile feels incredibly comfortable up and down the fingerboard. You won’t want to put it down!
- Grover Mini Rotomatic Tuners – Maintain excellent tuning stability.
- LR Baggs Element Bronze Pickup – This easy to use, natural sounding pickup beautifully captures the G-Writer EC’s natural tone, either on stage or in the studio.
- Includes Gigbag – Take your Generation Collection guitar anywhere and keep it protected from the elements.
