In each guitar, these two guiding principles are visible. The GPC-X1E is no exception either, and may just be your favorite Martin yet. Made entirely from HPL, the body creates a warm, balanced tone. Top X-bracing lets the top resonate more freely, improving articulation and projection. The body is outfitted with a birch laminate neck and Richlite fingerboard for breezy playability. Meanwhile, Martin E-1 electronics re-create a natural plugged-in tone with superior onstage tuning functionality. Whether you're a stay-at-home musician or a seasoned road dog, this miniature Martin is sure to become your go-to acoustic.Performing Artist neck profile makes for easy playabilityHave a thing for sleek necks? You're in luck because the GPC-X1E has one of Martin's awesome Performing Artist series necks. A favorite, this neck profile is light and speedy. You will love its slim profile, and rejoice when long playing sessions don't wear out your hand. Whether you need to get through a long set or extended recording session, you'll be glad your GPC-X1E has a Performance Artist neck.A buzzworthy fretboard, without the fret buzzHere's the skinny on the revolutionary composite fretboard material Martin used on the GPC-X1E: it's awesome. Unlike wood, Richlite is unaffected by changes in temperature or humidity. No more winter pitting or spring-swell fret buzz! It's also hard enough to be used as cutting surfaces in the most demanding professional kitchens on earth. The result is a great feeling fretboard that adds killer sustain to your GPC-X1E.Innovative Martin E-1 electronicsTap into a rich acoustic output with this acoustic's built-in Martin E1 electronics system. Covering volume, tone, and phase, you'll have more than enough controls to dial in the correct amount of bass and treble for any stage or studio recording situation. Plus, the system's onboard chromatic tuner ensures quick pitch correction between sets and automatically disables output when engaged — a stage-friendly feature guitarists appreciate.Martin GPC-X1E Features:GP acoustic-electric body provides plenty of power and playing comfortHPL body construction resists changes in temperature and humidityTop X-bracing lets the top sing outPerformance Artist neck profile feels great in your handMartin E-1 electronics create noteworthy plugged-in toneRichlite fingerboard contributes to buttery playabilityBlacked-out design looks striking onstage or on your wallTech SpecsString Type:SteelNumber of Strings:6Left-/Right-handed:Right-handedBody Shape:GPC-X1E Grand PerformanceBack & Sides Wood:High-pressure LaminateTop Wood:High-pressure LaminateColor:BlackBody Bracing:X-braceNeck Wood:Birch LaminateNeck Shape:PA ProfileRadius:16"Fingerboard Material:RichliteFingerboard Inlay:28 DotsNumber of Frets:20Scale Length:25.4"Nut/Saddle Material:Black Corian/Black TusqTuning Machines:Chrome Closed GearElectronics:Martin E-1
