Manufacturer's ID: GPC16E-01

What we say:

At A Glance:

The GPC-16E is crafted using East Indian Rosewood for the back and sides to provide a deep bass sound with plenty of smooth overtones. The Spruce top is great for a balanced tone and projection.

Features We Love:

Fishman Matrix VT Enhance

This pickup delivers a sound that is completely Martin. Bringing responsiveness and accurate dynamics, this pickup produces studio quality tone and clarity.

Martin Forward Shifted X-Brace System

Martin's X-Brace system dates back almost 200 years, designed to present the perfect balance between reliability and optimised tonal quality, in a guitar that will last a lifetime. This "forward-shifted" design moves the X towards the neck, retaining support and rigidity whilst allowing the section behind the bridge to resonate. The result is a reliable guitar that is loud and offers a spectacular bass response, pronounced tone and singing resonance.

Cutaway

Offering greater access to the upper frets, if you're prone to less open chords and more intricate melodies, then this could be the model for you.

Highlights:

  • Plug in and play with the Fishman Matrix VT Enhance
  • Martin forward shifted X brace optomises tone
  • Cutaway allows access to higher frets
