Martin GCPA2 Performing Artist Acoustic Electric Guitar with Hardshell Case
The stage-ready acoustic-electric GCPA2 model features a lightning fast neck and superior playability, along with onboard world-class Fishman F-1 Aura electronics.
The "GPCPA2" is crafted with solid East Indian rosewood back and sides and a solid Sitka spruce top. This model also features an elegant three-piece back and full gloss finish. It offers a very fast and comfortable Performing Artist neck and fingerboard taper with grained ivoroid bindings. The soundhole rosette is adorned with abalone pearl. The Fishman® F1 Aura® features the stunning realism of award-winning Aura Acoustic Imaging technology in a distinctive and easy to use onboard preamp system. State-of-the-art features include: digital chromatic tuner, volume and blend controls, independent three-band EQ for both pickup and image signals, compressor, phase control and an automatic anti-feedback filter with up to three notches.
The heart of the F1 Aura is its ability to replicate the sound of nine different world-class studio microphones. Fishman engineers have carefully captured images of the sound that these high-quality microphones "hear" and allow you to blend it in with the legendary Gold Plus under saddle pickup. The preamp design utilizes low-noise components, 32-bit internal processing and 24-bit audio conversion for an incredibly clean and quiet output.
A Limited Lifetime Warranty covers the "Performing Artist Series" models. To protect your investment, the guitar includes a brown hardshell case.
