The Martin Special GPC All Solid Grand Performance Acoustic-Electric Guitar provides the resonant tone of solid wood in an amplified package. Constructed with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, the Special GPC generates expressive highs, midrange clarity and a punchy low end. When plugged in, the onboard Fishman Sonitone pickup system captures the guitar's acoustic properties and allows for natural-sounding amplification.
All Solid Wood Construction Resonates
The solid Sitka spruce top and sapele back and sides of the Special GPC resonate together to produce a balanced tone with articulation across the frequency spectrum. Sitka spruce is a popular topwood for its ability to generate volume and headroom while sapele provides warmth and depth. Together, these tonewoods create an instrument suited for various musical styles.
Fishman Pickup System Delivers Plugged-in Performance
Thanks to the Fishman Sonitone pickup system, the Special GPC transitions seamlessly between acoustic and amplified playing. The Sonitone captures the guitar's natural acoustic properties and tone when plugged in to produce a realistic sound ideal for live performance or recording. Volume, tone and phase controls allow you to shape your tone to fit the venue or track.
Comfortable Body and Neck for Playing
The Special GPC's Grand Performance body style provides ergonomic comfort for long practice or performance sessions. A modified dreadnought shape with a tapered waist, the Grand Performance body sits comfortably against the player's body. Coupled with a modified low oval neck shape, the Special GPC feels familiar and fast. The slimmer nut width and lower action cater to both flatpicking and fingerstyle techniques.
Road-Ready and Stage-Friendly
Lightweight but road-tough, the Special GPC travels and performs with ease. On stage, the Special GPC's amplified and acoustic capabilities allow you to switch between tones at a moment's notice. Dynamic and versatile, the Special GPC All Solid Grand Performance Acoustic-Electric Guitar handles any musical situation with style.
