The 2015 Martin GPCPA1 Plus is a premium Grand Performance 14-fret cutaway acoustic-electric guitar with hybrid "X" scalloped bracing and solid East Indian rosewood back/sides.
The GPCPA1 Plus was designed to balance traditional Martin tone with modern player needs, offering a comfortable neck for electric players transitioning to acoustic and a deeper body for enhanced bass. It is highly regarded for its plugged-in sound, though some users find the unplugged tone differs from traditional dreadnoughts. The model is now considered a retired, premium, or "Custom" level instrument in the used market.
