Grasp a guitar with tremendously natural sound that gives you sharpness and definition in every note. Martin have constructed the GPCX1RAE with premium tonewoods, providing acoustic sound that's full and rich. High pressure laminate used for the body's back and sides brings added depth at the low end, while sitka spruce used for its top injects a wonderfully bright quality into your playing. You can enjoy terrific tone at any frequency.
An electronic system that retains your natural acoustic warmth and resonance. The Martin GPCX1RAE comes fitted with a superb Fishman Sonitone preamp that delivers everything you play with industry-leading clarity.
Many electro acoustic pickup systems fail to provide authentic acoustic sound when playing at high volume. This is not a problem you'll ever have with the GPCX1RAE. The Sonitone's active electronic pickup system is designed to communicate your guitar's exact voice at high output. This makes the guitar superb for live performance in larger venues. It's an instrument that'll never make you sacrifice warmth or fidelity.
Martin have used all of their amazing guitar-crafting prowess to ensure that this is one of their most playable guitars yet. They've equipped the GPCX1RAE with a high performance tapered neck, making sure that it'll always feel comfortable in your frethand. Thanks to this, you can play on for long studio sessions, practices, or live performances.
Benefit from superb definition in your music. The GPCX1RAE Left Handed has a richlite fingerboard, perfect for adding sharpness to every note that you play. Richlite has been intricately designed to provide a stronger, more consistent alternative to standard tonewoods. It's extremely long-lasting, resistant to warping, and delivers tremendous tone that makes your music sound brilliantly clear, no matter the pitch you're playing at.
This is a guitar that'll always help you to perform at your best. You can play all the way to the top of the guitar's scale thanks to a cutaway body shape. You'll never be restricted again by a clunky body preventing you from hitting notes at the top of the fretboard.
You can move up and down it quickly, too. The GPCX1RAE's neck has a hand-rubbed finish, making it more slick and smooth. Your hand can glide along it with ease. Perfect for fast-paced chord sequences. All barriers to your playing have been removed, meaning you can focus entirely on your music.
