Martin Guitar GPCX2E-01 Grand Performance Acoustic Electric Guitar - Natural Mahogany

Beautifully Designed, Instantly Playable Acoustic from Martin

Sadek Music, we’re proud to offer the Martin GPC-X2E, a perfect example of Martin’s commitment to both eco-friendly materials and outstanding acoustic performance. The GPC-X2E is part of the X Series and continues Martin's tradition of delivering premium design, exceptional tone, and immediate playability — all while incorporating more sustainable materials into the manufacturing process. Martin introduced the X Series line 20 years ago with the aim of producing an acoustic guitar from more eco-friendly materials while still retaining all the earmarks of a Martin guitar: great design; impeccable tone; and instant playability. The GPC-X2E continues this vision in grand fashion. This Grand Performance body is made from a Sitka spruce top with a figured mahogany HPL back and sides for bold, balanced tone and stellar projection. A select hardwood neck and fingerboard offers smooth playability and response, and the deep cutaway gives you access to those higher notes and exploratory chordings. When you are ready to plug in, onboard Fishman MX electronics kick out gorgeous amplified tone.

Smooth playability from the Performing Artist series neck

Whether you’re recording for hours or plan to play late into the night, the Performing Artist series neck is ideal for its comfort and smooth response. The slimmer profile is easy on your hand, allowing you to play extended sessions without fatigue. This neck has also been hand-rubbed, so it is extra smooth — a feature we love here . And with a smooth, deep cutaway, you get effortless access to the higher frets.  At Sadek Music, we understand that comfort and playability are just as important as sound quality when it comes to choosing a guitar. That’s why we love the Performing Artist series neck found on many of Martin’s guitars, such as the OMC-X1E and other models in the X Series.

Fine appointments and detailed craftsmanship

Sadek Music, we pride ourselves on offering instruments that combine impeccable tone, craftsmanship, and stunning aesthetics. The Martin GPC-X2E is a perfect example of this harmony, featuring thoughtful fine appointments that enhance both its appearance and its sound. Let’s dive into some of the standout features of the GPC-X2E, a guitar that’s ideal for any musician looking for both performance and style.

Innovative electronics

The Fishman MX system is mounted in the soundhole of the GPCX2E and is a favorite here . The MX translates the natural, airy tone of the GPCX2E, capturing its full expression.
