In Depth | Martin GPC-X2E-Mahogany Electro-Akoestische Grand Performance Cutaway + Martin Gigbag We took the GPCX1AE and reimagined it. The result is the GPC-X2E Mahogany. This Grand Performance sized model features a cutaway body with a Sitka spruce top and figured mahogany pattern high-pressure laminate (HPL) back and sides. New mother-of-pearl pattern inlay on the rosette and fingerboard lend a richness to the GPC-X2E Mahogany, making it as impressive to look at as it is to play. With a Performing Artist neck, fingerboard, and bridge of select hardwood, the sound transfer of this model has been greatly improved. It is equipped with Fishman® MX electronics and strung with Martin’s Authentic Acoustic Lifespan® 2.0 strings. With a new, soft gig bag featuring headstock, bridge, and endpin protectors, a durable water-repellent exterior, and foam padding, this model is ready to go anywhere.
