Martin GPC-16E Acoustic-ElectricGrand Performance & Refined Tone and Comfort
The Martin GPC-16E is a premium acoustic-electric guitar designed for players who value clarity, comfort, and versatility in equal measure. Built in Martin’s legendary Nazareth, Pennsylvania factory, the GPC-16E is part of the esteemed 16 Series, known for bringing top-tier tonewoods, build quality, and playability to working musicians and serious enthusiasts alike.
Featuring a Grand Performance body size with 14-fret access and the comfortable depth of an Auditorium model, the GPC-16E blends projection and balance with a sleek feel that performs equally well in the studio, on stage, or at home. The solid spruce top with scalloped forward-shifted X-bracing provides exceptional resonance and clarity, while solid East Indian rosewood back and sides contribute warmth, depth, and complex overtones—making this an ideal guitar for fingerstyle playing, strumming, or flatpicking.
Outfitted with Martin’s E1 electronics, this guitar delivers reliable, stage-ready tone with intuitive onboard controls for volume, tone, and phase, plus a built-in chromatic tuner for convenient tuning in any setting. A high-performance taper neck profile and smooth ebony fingerboard ensure effortless playability across all registers, while traditional appointments like herringbone rosette, antique white binding, and an East Indian rosewood headplate complete the GPC-16E’s elegant look.
