ARTICLE N° 72660
The Martin GPC-16E Rosewood is a guitar that ticks all the boxes for guitarists looking for a versatile model. We're talking about a Grand Performance format with a cutaway, which allows you to easily navigate the entire neck, whether you're in delicate picking mode or energetic strumming. The combination of a solid Sitka spruce top and East Indian rosewood back and sides offers a rich tonal response, balanced between deep bass and well-defined treble, a Martin classic.

The neck, with its Modified Low Oval profile and satin finish, is designed for optimal playing comfort. And with its ebony fingerboard and 20 frets, you benefit from impressive fluidity, whether for open chords or more adventurous solos. The 645 mm scale length guarantees impeccable intonation across the entire length of the neck, enough to keep notes precise and clear, even when things get technical.

On the amplification side, the model does not disappoint either with its Fishman Matrix VT Enhance™ system. It faithfully reproduces the acoustics of the guitar when you plug it in, with volume and tone controls accessible directly in the soundhole. The reverse phase system is a real asset to avoid the inconvenience of feedback, especially on stage.

Finally, the aesthetics of this Martin GPC-16E are not left out: from its herringbone soundhole to its tortoise pickguard, we are in classic and refined. The open tuners in Butterbean finish, in addition to adding charm, ensure perfect tuning stability. All this comes with a very practical Soft-Case to protect the instrument.
