Customer Reviewsfrom Homer, Alaska January 30, 2012 Music Background: Pro and amateur since '63 The perfect instrumentAfter 49 years of playing mostly electrics I finally decided to treat myself to a Martin acoustic electric. I couldn't bring myself to pay thousands for a guitar because I've played the high dollar models and they frankly don't sound any better than many of the less expensive ones. Not only was this guitar affordable, but my GPCPA4 exceeded even my wildest expectations in both craftsmanship and electronics. I plug it into any type of amplification and it sounds magical by just tweeking the one tone/phase control knob. My highest respects to Martin for maintaining such a high level for nearly 180 years. One note: the strings that came on the guitar sounded great but were a little too heavy for my style of playing so I dropped down to an .011 set and it plays like a dream.from Rural Colorado, USA November 21, 2011 Music Background: Performing musician Excellent PerformerThis is my first professional-grade acoustic, so I can't really compare it to others on the basis of extended usage, but I couldn't be happier with it.Fit, finish, and playability are excellent, the tone is full and chimes from top to bottom, and the Fishman through a P/A has to be heard to be believed. The Richlite finger board plays like ebony, and looks like it from any more than a few inches away. A fine instrument at what I consider a very fair price.
