Like many of Martin's famous guitars, the Special GPC Grand Performance has all the punch and volume that players have come to expect from the world-famous Martin Guitar Co.

The Martin Special GPC is outfitted with the Fishman Sonitone pickup system, making this guitar performance ready for the stage or studio. The Martin Special GPC is designed for musicians seeking an acoustic-electric guitar with premium components and professional sound.

Mortis and Tenon Neck Joint Enhances Resonance

The Special GPC is equipped with a mortis and tenon neck joint. This glued, neck-to-body joint allows the neck and body of the guitar to resonate as one instrument. Like many of the world's finest string instruments, the mortis and tenon does not have any bolts that limit sustain and change the color of the acoustic sound. The tight fit increases the transference of tone and sustain across the entire instrument. Play as soft, or as hard as you want, and this instrument has got you covered.

Fishman Sonitone Pickup System Delivers Plugged-In Performance

The Fishman Sonitone pickup system makes the Martin Special GPC performance ready for the stage or studio. This dual-source system features an under-saddle piezo pickup and an internally mounted microphone with a blend control, allowing you to dial in your perfect tone. Roll off the mic for a crisp piezo sound or bring in more warmth and ambience. A volume control, tone control, and phase switch provide further tonal shaping. The Fishman Sonitone pickup system gives you maximum control and flexibility for any performance situation.

Premium Components and Timeless Style

The Martin Special GPC features a solid mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard and bridge, bone nut and saddle, and open-gear tuners. These premium components not only provide exceptional tone and playability but also give the guitar a timeless, elegant style. A hand-rubbed finish in natural gloss lacquer shows off the beautiful wood grain. Gig bag included.

Versatile and Balanced Tone for Any Genre

This versatile Martin acoustic-electric guitar can handle just about any musical style, from bluegrass to rock, and anything in between. And, best of all, the Martin Special GPC is a great complement to vocals.
