The Martin GP-X2E X Series Special HPL Ziricote limited-edition acoustic-electric guitar combines innovative materials with the iconic craftsmanship Martin is known for. Featuring a solid sapele top and ziricote-patterned high-pressure laminate (HPL) back and sides, this guitar delivers a balanced, resonant tone with exceptional durability. Its Grand Performance body shape offers a comfortable playing experience, while the scalloped X-bracing enhances projection and tonal clarity. Equipped with Martin E1 electronics, this model ensures natural acoustic sound reproduction for live performances or studio sessions. With its sustainable build and premium sound, the GP-X2E is a forward-thinking choice for musicians seeking timeless performance and rich tonal character.

Solid Sapele Top Enhances Tonal Depth and Projection

The solid sapele top on this guitar ensures a warm, resonant tone that blends seamlessly with the ziricote-patterned HPL back and sides. Sapele is renowned for its balanced tonal characteristics, producing clear highs and a robust midrange suitable for intricate fingerpicking or bold strumming. The scalloped X-bracing supports the top, allowing for enhanced resonance and projection without sacrificing stability. This thoughtful construction ensures that every note rings with clarity and fullness, making the GP-X2E highly responsive to dynamic playing styles.

High-Pressure Laminate Back and Sides for Sustainability and Long-Lasting Durability

The ziricote-patterned HPL back and sides offer the aesthetic appeal of exotic tonewoods while providing superior durability. High-pressure laminate resists environmental changes, ensuring consistent performance even in varying temperatures or humidity levels. The ziricote grain adds a striking visual element to the guitar, making it a standout on stage or in the home studio. The GP-X2E's sustainable construction also reflects Martin's commitment to eco-conscious manufacturing, ensuring long-lasting beauty and reliability without compromising tonal quality.

Martin E1 Electronics for Authentic Amplified Tone

The GP-X2E features Martin E1 electronics, designed to faithfully reproduce the guitar's acoustic tone when amplified. The onboard controls allow precise adjustments for both bass and treble frequencies, ensuring a balanced sound in live or recording environments. The preamp system is intuitive, making it easy to dial in your desired tone without hassle. Whether you're performing in a venue or experimenting in the studio, the electronics provide clarity and richness, preserving the guitar's natural voice.

Thoughtful Martin Construction for Playability and Comfort

The Grand Performance body shape offers a comfortable playing experience, suitable for extended practice or performance sessions. The PA profile neck, crafted from select hardwood, features a high-performance taper that facilitates smooth transitions across all 20 frets. The faux tortoiseshell pickguard and faux abalone rosette further enhance the guitar's visual appeal, while the compensated white Tusq saddle ensures precise intonation. Designed with both aesthetics and functionality in mind, this acoustic-electric is an ergonomic and visually striking choice for musicians.
