Versatile acoustic-electric with iconic Martin tone and plug-in convenience.

The Martin GPC-10E Road Series limited-edition acoustic-electric guitar provides serious musicians an affordable yet high-quality instrument with a balanced tone and impressive playability. Martin designed the GPC-10E with a sapele body and select hardwood neck for resonant sound with crisp highs, punchy mids and full lows. Its Grand Performance body size comfortably rests between a dreadnought and 000, letting you enjoy the best of both worlds. Plug in the onboard Fishman Matrix VT Enhance electronics to amplify your acoustic tone with control over volume, EQ and more.

Sapele Construction Delivers Solid Wood Tone

You'll appreciate the GPC-10E's all-sapele construction, which provides the look and sound of genuine mahogany at a lower cost. Sapele generates a powerful midrange, bright treble response and great sustain. Its moderate density helps produce a balanced tone with projection suited for ensemble playing or solo performance. Martin's signature X-bracing and high-quality build mean this guitar will only improve over time as its tone matures.

Playability Inspires Your Creative Side

The GPC-10E's neck features a high-performance taper and 16" radius for fast, comfortable playing across all areas of the fingerboard. Its medium gauge strings have light tension so you can play complex chords and quick lead lines with ease. The Grand Performance body rests comfortably against your body whether sitting or standing, with a waist size slightly larger than a 000 but more compact than a dreadnought. Overall, the GPC-10E entices you to pick it up and inspires new melodies and rhythms.

Plug in for Gigging Versatility

The Fishman Matrix VT Enhance electronics make the GPC-10E stage-ready for playing gigs, open mics or recording. Simply plug into your amplifier or PA system to convey the guitar's acoustic resonance and detailed tone. Onboard controls provide three-band EQ, volume and blend so you can shape your amplified sound to suit the venue. Tap into the tonal palette of Martin's all-sapele design at the turn of a knob.
