From Martin and Co.
Featuring legendary Martin tone, the GPCPA2 Mahogany acoustic electric guitar has striking aesthetic features and onboard intelligence. The GPCPA2 and the Performing Artist Series will take your body, mind and soul to new heights.
The Performing Artist Series integrates two dream guitars: a traditional acoustic with a contemporary acoustic electric. The sweet spot is its versatility, plugged or unplugged. Simplicity and intelligence are beautifully crafted into every detail, inside and out.
Onboard Intelligence
The heart of this onboard intelligence is its ability to replicate nine different world-class studio microphones.
The new Fishman F1 Aura combines incredibly high-end acoustic sound images, onboard digital tuner and a powerful set of tone shaping features for endless tonal versatility.
An impressive array of professional features, including a compressor, phase control, automatic anti-feedback filter and an independent 3-band EQ for both the Gold Plus pickup and the Aura Image signals.
Neck and Fingerboard
The Performing Artist models feature a more parallel neck profile with a slimmer taper at the 12th fret, giving the guitar comfortable width in the first few frets plus a faster feel for lead work.
Satin finish neck and a smooth cutaway provides extreme ease of play up and down the fingerboard.
