Description

For sale is a pristine, mint-condition Martin Custom GPC-MMVE (Grand Performance Cutaway) acoustic-electric guitar, manufactured circa 2010–2012. This model was a highly sought-after, USA-built custom run produced exclusively for Guitar Center/Musician's Friend, designed to deliver premium Standard Series tonewoods and aesthetics at a more accessible price point.

This specific instrument has been played very little, meticulously cared for in a smoke-free environment, and shows no notable signs of wear, blemishes, or fret degradation.

Structural & Tonal Specifications:

• Body Shape: Grand Performance Cutaway (GPC) with a tight, comfortable waist and balanced, mid-range-focused acoustic projection.
• Top Wood: Solid Sitka Spruce (Gloss finish)
• Back & Sides: Solid East Indian Rosewood
• Neck Joint: Mortise & Tenon construction with A-frame X-bracing, providing exceptional top stability and clear, articulate note definition.
• Fingerboard & Bridge: Genuine solid Ebony.
• Nut Width: Traditional 1-11/16” width—ideal for players who prefer a slightly narrower, faster neck profile compared to modern 1-3/4” Martin configurations.
• Electronics: Factory-installed Fishman onboard pickup system with discrete volume and tone controls, fully functional and performance-ready.

Condition & Inclusions:

• Condition: Mint. The nitrocellulose gloss finish is clean, the neck is straight, the action is optimal, and there is no bridge lifting or structural swelling/dehydration.
• Case: Includes the original Martin deluxe hardshell case, also in excellent condition with all latches fully functional.

Unlike Martin’s modern mid-tier cutaways (which are manufactured outside the USA and frequently utilize alternative or layered woods), this 2010–2012 Custom model was built in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, using all-solid tonewoods and premium ebony components. Because it has spent the last 14+ years safely stored, the solid spruce and rosewood have aged beautifully, offering a matured, resonant tone that you cannot get from a brand-new instrument.
