Here for sale we have a Martin GPC-16E Electro Acoustic Guitar in Natural Satin finish. Made in the USA in 2021, this guitar consists of a Sitka Spruce top, Rosewood back and sides, a Select Hardwood neck, and a 20-fret Ebony fingerboard. Other appointments include Forward-Shifted X-Bracing, Nickel Open Gear Butterbean tuners, and a Martin E-1 Electronics system with controls for volume, and tone.
The Select Hardwood neck plays very well. The Modified Low Oval with High-Performance Taper profile feels nicely slender in the hand without being too thin; striking a perfect balance between comfort for chord playing and practicality for fingerstyle techniques and complex parts. The Grand Performance body design is supremely comfortable in the arms, meaning that long practice sessions on the sofa are just as fatigue-free as long gigs. The Ebony fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, providing a smooth and durable playing surface.
The Grand Performance body size is renowned for its clear, open and uniform response across all 6 strings. The tone is well suited to both chordal and melodic playing styles. It has a rich low end with clear mids, and an unpronounced yet appealing high end. Well suited to both fingerstyle and strumming, this guitar has a mellow yet distinctive sound that will stand out from the crowd. The guitar projects well and feels dynamically responsive to your playing without loss of clarity at higher volumes, with the Martin E1 pickup/preamp system helping to deliver an organic tone when amplified.
Please be aware that for international buyers import fees are not included in our postage and packaging cost, this only covers the cost of the guitar being sent to you. Import fees will be charged by Customs upon the guitar's arrival in the recipient country. Due to Brexit, this also applies to EU buyers. We advise checking the total import cost with Customs as this is not information we are able to accurately provide.
