Description
With the depth of a 000-size Martin and the shape of a Grand Performance, Martin's GPC-16e provides the resonant, lively tone of a large-size body without sacrificing comfort. The guitar's body is made of a Sitka Spruce top and mahogany back/sides. The mahogany in this guitar lays a solid tonal foundation for the high-range shimmer of the Sitka Spruce top, while showing off its gorgeous natural figuring. Plus, Fishman Matrix VT Enhance electronics make the GPC-16e both gig and studio-ready. With its excellent tonal versatility, lively tone, and second-to-none Martin construction, the GPC-16e is an absolutely stellar acoustic-electric.
