Overview

Solid tone, exceptional playability.

The GP-28E Standard Grand Performance acoustic-electric guitar has been refined to combine some of the most desirable vintage appointments with modern playability. Its Grand Performance body design is famous for having a very clean, precise, high-end tone, along with a perfectly balanced bass response. The GP body is deeper than the traditional Martin Auditorium (000) for good reason. The deeper body allows the sound a little extra time to build before it jumps out of the soundhole. The result is a well-balanced sound that is crisp and clean with a lot of punch on the low end.

Martin's Standard models, like this GP-28E Standard Grand Performance, come with a very fast, playable, solid neck with a modified low-oval shape, High Performance neck taper and 1-3/4” nut. Martin has refined their 2018 Standard lineup to have aging toner, antique white binding, vintage-style fingerboard inlays, vintage open-gear tuners, and vintage-era bracing for that unique "Golden Era" tone. The combination of the "vintage" tone and modern playability creates an instrument that you won’t want to put down.
