The Martin GPC-16E acoustic-electric offers players a sleek and comfortable Grand Performance-style guitar. Handcrafted in our Nazareth factory as part of the 16 Series, its body shape combines the projection, balanced tone, and added bass of a Grand Performance model with the depth and comfort of an Auditorium (000) guitar. At its core lies a resonant satin spruce top, paired with your choice of East Indian rosewood or mahogany satin back and sides. Equipped with Martin E1 electronics, the GPC-16E lets you sculpt your sound with onboard controls for volume, tone, and phase, while the built-in chromatic tuner ensures accurate tuning without the need for plugging in. This guitar is ready to help you unleash your inner artist, wherever your musical journey takes you.
