Martin & Co GPCX2E Grand Performance - Sapele/Macassar Acoustic

The Martin GPCX2E X2 Grand Performance Sapele/Macassar Acoustic Guitar features a solid Sapele top with high-pressure laminate (HPL) Macassar back and sides, for powerful mids and lows with plenty of top-end definition. A mother-of-pearl pattern inlay on the rosette and fingerboard make the GPC-X2E as impressive to look at as it is to play. 

A Performing Artist-shaped neck with High-Performance Taper offers hours of comfortable playability up and down the fretboard. Equipped with Fishman MX electronics, the Martin GPCX2E retains its natural acoustic resonance through an acoustic amp or P.A.

A gig bag with added headstock, bridge and endpin protectors, durable water-repellent exterior, and foam padding, lets the GPCX2E go anywhere.
