Cort Gold-A6 NAT

The Gold series of acoustic guitars represents the qualitative pinnacle of Cort acoustic guitars to date. It should not miss the attention of true guitar connoisseurs.

The Gold-A6 electro-acoustic guitar offers a popular Auditorium body shape suitable for playing with a pick and finger technique. The instrument's soundboard is made of solid Sitka spruce wood of Master Grade quality, which has undergone a special heat treatment before assembly (a process called ATV - Aged to Vintage). The result is the sound and look of decades of aged wood, yet it is a brand new model. The back and sides are made of solid mahogany, which accentuates the sonic qualities of the all-wood body.

The mahogany neck is glued to a Makasar ebony fingerboard with twenty frets, and orientation around its surface is facilitated by positional dots and decorative inlay on the twelfth fret. The stability of the neck and the overall construction of the instrument is enhanced by the walnut neck bracing and the DoubleLock connection to the body, which together with a thin layer of UV lacquer promotes the natural acoustic resonance of the wood.

The fit of the strings in the ebony fingerboard and their routing through the saddle and right bone fret ensures optimal vibration transmission to the body of the instrument and good sustain. Stability of tuning is ensured by Deluxe Vintage Gold mechanics in gold finish. The quality of the workmanship is underlined by traditional decorative elements in the form of ornate mother-of-pearl rosettes (Abalone), bright trim complemented by lines of the peripheral bracing, centre backboard bracing, ebony pegs for the fingerboard and pickguard made of imitation tortoiseshell, which also protects the lacquer of the instrument from scratches.

The Fishman Flex Blend electronics take advantage of a combination of under-coil piezo pickup and microphone to faithfully capture the acoustic sound. Controls in the guitar's headstock adjust the mic/piezo pickup ratio, volume, EQ, and activate phase and built-in tuner functions. The guitar comes in a high-quality case (Cort Deluxe Soft-Side Case) that combines the best features of cases with the practicality of padded gig-bags.
