Martin GPC-X2E Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Ziricote, w/Softshell Case
The Martin GPC-X2E, a standout model in the newly re-imagined X Series, showcases a fusion of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design. This acoustic-electric guitar features a hand-rubbed satin spruce top, complemented by visually striking ziricote high-pressure laminate (HPL) for the back and sides. The use of HPL not only enhances the guitar’s aesthetic but also contributes to its sturdiness and longevity.
With its Grand Performance body shape, the GPC-X2E offers a balanced and rich tonal output, augmented by added bass response. The design includes a cutaway for easy access to the higher frets, catering to versatile playing styles. The guitar’s playability is further enhanced by a slim fingerboard with a subtly beveled comfort edge, and a modern bridge contour ensures a smooth playing experience.
The neck of the GPC-X2E is crafted from select hardwood, shaped into a comfortable PA profile with a high-performance taper. This, coupled with the 16-inch radius rosewood fingerboard, which is adorned with a Style 28 faux abalone pattern inlay, provides a comfortable and responsive playing feel. The guitar boasts 20 frets, offering a wide range of note possibilities.
Martin’s E-1 electronics are at the heart of the GPC-X2E, featuring a built-in chromatic tuner and user-friendly controls for volume, tone, and phase. This electronic setup allows players to easily adapt their sound for different performance settings. Additional features include satin chrome closed gear tuners and a durable white corian nut, enhancing the guitar’s tuning stability and overall sonic character.
Finished in a natural satin, the GPC-X2E exudes a sense of elegance and timelessness. With its blend of visual beauty, comfortable playability, and versatile electronics, the Martin GPC-X2E is an exemplary choice for musicians seeking a high-quality, reliable instrument.
This guitar comes with a soft case. Most new Martin Guitars ship with the original endpin not installed, if you’d like us to install one for you before shipping, please let us know and we’d be happy to.Â
