{"product_id":"c-f-martin-gpc-16e","title":"C.F. Martin GPC-16E","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Martin GPC-16E is a beautifully crafted acoustic-electric Grand Performance model with a deep cutaway, making the guitar ideal for exploring its full tonal range. The GPC-16E features a solid Sitka spruce top with rosewood back and sides—a legendary combination of tonewoods that we know from Martin's 28 series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of spruce and rosewood gives the guitar a distinctive tone that is broad, full, and resonant. A hardwood neck with an ebony fretboard provides exceptional playability and responsiveness—ideal for both fingerstyle and pick playing. And the built-in Element pickup system delivers a fantastic acoustic tone when connected to an amplifier or audio interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Modified Low Oval, High Performance Taper neck in exquisite hardwood and a solid ebony fretboard give the Martin GPC-16E fantastic playability that matches its tone. The frets are perfectly leveled via a PLEK treatment, ensuring an optimally playable fretboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe present and balanced tone of the GPC-16E comes from its Grand Performance body shape. This body shape provides excellent projection and focus with warmth that never becomes dry and overtones that never become harsh. The Grand Performance gives you more bass and projection than you get in the 000 models, but the size is still extremely comfortable for long performances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you play the GPC-16E for the first time, you will notice that the body feels different from other Martin Grand Performance guitars. It retains the same shape, but it is slightly thinner than usual. Instead of the traditional 4-1\/2″ body depth, Martin has chosen to give this guitar the same depth as a 000 model, namely 4-1\/8″. This affects the guitar in two ways: First, the thinner body provides a more even bass response, which is especially advantageous when recording. Second, it helps the guitar produce a more pronounced midrange response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Martin GPC-16E is ready for the studio or stage, as it comes with L.R. Baggs' popular Element pickup system pre-installed. This system features a low-profile piezo microphone under the saddle, which improves the contact between the pickup and the guitar, thereby delivering a robust, lively, and natural acoustic sound with excellent dynamics and delicate highs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"C.F.
