9.939 EURO
The Grand Performance (GP) body shape offers a good balance between sound volume and playing comfort. The GP models have a slightly larger top than an OM which provides more resonance and volume. The sound remains clear, balanced and very dynamic.
The woods and appointments (in 45 style) for this GP are truly exquisite - we have chosen Premium Wild Grain East Indian Rosewood for the back and sides and complemented it with a Grade 7 Sitka top. The X-bracing is scalloped - i.e. weight-optimised to achieve a faster response even with fingerstyle. Of course, the GP can also be played with a pick,
Martin Guitars' over one hundred years of experience in building acoustic instruments is evident in the Grand Performance Style 45, where perfect craftsmanship meets premium quality woods and hardware.
