Martin GPC13E Burst

What we say:

At A Glance

The Martin GPC13E Burst is part of their Road Series and is quick to impress. Martin's usual high quality is present from the outset but what sets this apart is the burst finish, ziricote fine veneer back and sides, and Fishman MX-T electronics. Having an onboard tuner that also mutes the output is very handy and instantly makes this a top choice for live use. Whether it is your local open mic night or on the main stage at a festival, this is a guitar that won't let you down.

Features We Love:

Wood Choices

A Spruce top instantly gives that clarity and detail that you want from an acoustic. Ziricote fine veneer back and sides add a stunning look to the instrument while still keeping it at a respectable price point.

Martin X-Brace

Martin's X-Brace system dates back almost 200 years, designed to present the perfect balance between reliability and optimised tonal quality, in a guitar that will last a lifetime. The X-Brace design supports the guitar's soundboard without negatively impacting the guitar's natural resonance and character.

Fishman MX-T Pickup

Fishman have a reputation as one of the best pickup manufacturers in the world and their acoustic guitar pickups are especially loved. The MX series pickup offers exceptional transparency to present the true sound of your guitar to a speaker system. This MX-T system also features a volume and tone control neatly tucked into the soundhole on one side, along with a handy tuner on the other. It looks like a traditional acoustic with the control and convenience of an electro-acoustic, truly the best of both worlds.

Who Is It For?

If you like the size of a Grand Performance model then this gives you that familiar feel and usability while still adding something a little different.

Highlights:

• Great electronics for live use
• Strumming and fingerpicking styles sound excellent on it
• Striking looks
