Semi Acoustic Martin Shaded (DCPA4)

The Martin DCPA4 Shaded acoustic-electric guitar builds on Martin’s highly regarded Performing Artist design, finished with an elegant shaded top that looks as good as it sounds. Drawing inspiration from classic Martin dreadnoughts, this model features a solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid sapele back and sides, delivering a balanced, musical tone with warmth and clarity.

Thanks to its all-solid tonewood construction, the DCPA4 Shaded isn’t just great out of the box—it will continue to open up and improve sonically as it ages. The spruce provides brightness and definition, while the sapele adds a smooth, mellow depth that complements it perfectly.

Designed with modern performers in mind, this guitar comes equipped with Fishman F1 Analog electronics. The system is neatly integrated and includes an onboard tuner along with volume and tone controls, making it easy to shape your sound on stage or in the studio without fuss.

Playability is a major highlight. The Performing Artist neck profile is slim and comfortable, ideal for long rehearsals, recording sessions, or extended gigs. A smooth satin finish on the neck reduces hand fatigue, while the cutaway design gives you easy access to the upper frets.
