Central Warehouse N/A
The front of the MR 500E is made from solid Sitka spruce, while the back and sides are made from overlaid mahogany. This proven combination of woods gives the instrument a balanced sound with the necessary amount of tonal clarity and warmth. The mahogany neck is glued to an ovangkol fingerboard with twenty frets and positioning dots make it easy to navigate. The lower cutout of the body (Venetian) offers a good match even at higher fretboard positions.
The fit of the strings in the specially shaped ovangkol fingerboard and Die-Cast mechanism guarantees good sustain and tuning stability. Traditional design elements are complemented by an ornate rosette composed of ABS rings, bright binding and a practical pickguard made of imitation tortoiseshell.
The sound system is provided by the Cort CE304T preamp with integrated tuner.
