The Martin GPCE Inception Maple represents a bold evolution in acoustic design, blending sustainable tonewoods with cutting-edge craftsmanship. Built for discerning players who demand both clarity and dynamic response, this model combines the shimmering brilliance of maple with the balanced power of European spruce for a sound that’s detailed, expressive, and alive.

Featuring a Grand Performance body with a Venetian cutaway, the GPCE Inception Maple delivers excellent projection and articulation, perfect for everything from intricate fingerstyle work to full-band accompaniment. The FSC-certified European spruce top responds with quick attack and impressive sustain, while the maple back and sides, accentuated by a black walnut wedge, produce crisp highs and a focused midrange that sits perfectly in a mix.

Martin’s skeletonized bracing and sonic channeling technology reduce excess mass, allowing the guitar to resonate more freely and deliver enhanced volume and sustain. Finished in a striking Amber Fade Sunburst gloss, paired with gold open-gear tuners and an LR Baggs Anthem pickup system, this instrument is equally at home on stage or in the studio. Complete with a molded hardshell case and available now at Haggerty’s Music, the GPCE Inception Maple is a fusion of tradition, innovation, and artistry.
