GPCPA4 or 000-16GT (LR-Baggs Anthem)

[nic3guy]

Hi, I am new here and I hope you guys can help me to decide which one is better.

Planning to buy Martin GPCPA4 (Rosewood or Sapele) but I am afraid of the F1 Analog sounds so I'm thinking if I get the Martin 000-16GT instead and put an LR-Baggs Athem on it later.

Thank you guys.

I have a OMCPA4. I like the guitar, but am not crazy about the F1 Analog system.

Thank you for your reply..

Yours is rosewood or sapele? I'm more on strumming so which is better OM or GP?

Mine is sapele. Which is better for strumming?? Kind of a preference question... The GP will have a bigger sound with more bass... kind of a cross between an OM and dreadnaught. I chose the OM size more for the playing comfort of the smaller size than for its sound.
