Sennheiser CI1REW Right-Angle Guitar Cable for Evolution Wireless Bodypack Transmitters

Right-angle instrument cable with locking EW connector for G1, G2, and G3 wireless bodypacks

The Sennheiser CI1REW is a right-angle guitar cable designed for Sennheiser Evolution Wireless G1, G2, and G3 bodypack transmitters. The right-angle 6.3mm (1/4-inch) jack on the instrument end provides a low-profile connection at the guitar's output jack, reducing stress on the jack socket and keeping the cable close to the instrument body for a cleaner stage appearance.

Right-angle instrument cables are preferred by guitarists and bassists who mount their bodypack transmitter on a guitar strap or belt, where a straight jack would protrude and be more susceptible to accidental leverage and disconnection. The locking EW connector on the bodypack end secures the cable to the transmitter and prevents it from pulling free during performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the CI1REW work with EW G4 bodypacks?

The CI1REW is listed for G1, G2, and G3 systems. EW G4 bodypacks use the same 3.5mm locking EW connector, so the cable should be physically compatible. Verify with Sennheiser documentation for confirmed G4 compatibility.

When should I choose a right-angle cable over a straight cable?

Choose right-angle when the guitar's output jack is on the edge of the body (Stratocaster-style) and a straight plug would protrude and stress the jack. Straight cables work better when the jack is recessed (Les Paul-style).
