Description:
The Martin 16 series is an affordable entry-point into the world of USA-made Martin guitars. With its rosewood body, Sitka spruce top, and built-in Fishman Matrix VT electronics, the GPC-16E Rosewood is a workhorse guitar offering the quality of tone and craftsmanship you expect from an American-made Martin.
Grand Performance Body
The Grand Performance body shape is a true all-rounder. Unlike larger body shapes like dreadnoughts and jumbos, you get a more balanced sound across the frequencies, so it's great for a wide range of genres. There's also a cutaway letting you access the higher frets with ease. The slightly smaller body shape and versatile tone make the Grand Performance body suitable for both fingerstyle and strumming alike.
