Martin Road Series GPC-10E Grand Performance Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Sapele Top with Sapele Back and Sides

---

GPC-10E

This solid wood Grand Performance model is an affordable workhorse with tone for days. The acoustic-electric GPC-10E features a sapele body paired with a select hardwood neck, fingerboard, and bridge. Its body size is the perfect mix between a classic Dreadnought and 000 style guitar, giving you a versatile instrument that delivers both comfort and power, and a projective, balanced tone with added bass. Sapele is a wood that’s similar in appearance and tone to the genuine mahogany found on our higher-end models, providing a powerful midrange, great punch, and bright and airy trebles. This guitar gives you all the playability and tone of a solid wood Martin in an understated, no-frills package that’s ready to play right out of the box. Not only does the GPC-10E sound great unplugged, but the Fishman® Matrix VT Enhance electronics give you the option to plug in at home, on stage, and in the studio with onboard volume, tone, and blend controls.
