NEW - What happens when you merge the classic look and feel of a traditional Martin acoustic guitar with the convenience of today's modern acoustic-electric? You get the Performing Artist series, that's what! Like so many classic Martins from years past, the Performing Artist series is crafted using nothing but the finest tonewoods, with solid Sitka spruce for the top and solid Sapele making up the back and sides. Add to this a satin-finished neck, a unique neck carve, and a convenient cutaway, and you've got a guitar that's downright inspiring to play. But this is only half the story.
Martin takes the acoustic-electric guitar on an evolutionary journey, equipping these instruments with a Fishman pickup. This is the Performing Artist GPCPA4, a well-balanced instrument that's great for any style of music.
Includes free shipping and free expert guitar setup!
