All HPL guitars have been lately popular in the Guitar world ever since Martin launched it. These are due to 2 reasons primarily. One being scarcity of wood resource and second being the difficulty in terms to procure it when it comes to availability and costing. So we will see the shift in the industry trying to use HPL as well as carbon fiber options. We were very curious about the all HPL guitars as soon as Kepma launched it. We have been quite impressed overall with Kepma’s performance in terms of Tone and durability. So we had to check it out! Martin all HPL guitars are all priced pretty steep and it was amazing to see an all HPL guitar at the price range of Rs. 18000 in India. This guitar is currently not in a semi acoustic variant so you can reach us on our call and WhatsApp support and get the pickup of your choice installed!

Greetings from Guayaquil Ecuador western South America

Do you have lag 318 ace guitar?
Kepma edc , Yamaha fg800 , Sigma DM ST , which one you recommend if price is not an issue
Recently bought a martin dx1e, didnt know that it was all hpl, i wanted a martin guitar n didnt really check the specs. But after playing it for 1 week or so i discovered the fact and was surprised to know that it was all hpl. It has a very dark, bassy and muffled sound which is unique n im slowly liking it. I love playing blues on it. Hpl is definitely a yes from my side.
But yea its not real wood and the sound wont be for everyone, so listen to as much as demos as you want before buying.
