Made from a combination of sustainable and domestically abundant tonewoods—including an FSC-certified European spruce top, maple sides, and an eye-catching three-piece back of maple and black walnut—the all-new Martin GPCE Inception Maple acoustic-electric guitar unlocks the sonic beauty of these sustainable tonewoods with a one-of-a-kind skeletonized scalloped bracing, plus sonic channels inside the body, for increased resonance and superior tone. This unique handcrafted acoustic guitar boasts a satin amber fade sunburst finish, black walnut binding, maple arrow fingerboard inlays, gold open gear tuners, as well as a cutaway to help you reach the highest frets.
Using spectral analysis, during the final design phase, Martin measured the frequency response of the GPCE Inception to determine the sonic impact of its unique design features, proving that skeletonized bracing increases the guitar’s sustain. While, typically, an increase in sustain decreases the amplitude of a guitar’s frequency response (i.e., its “volume,” measured in decibels), or vice versa—the GPCE’s sonic channeling increases the amplitude, offering guitarists an altogether unique sonic experience.
