Cort ASO6 Features
The Cort AS-06 is the type of guitar that you buy and then hand down to your kids and grandkids over generations. The craftsmanship and details hint at its heirloom-worthy status, but there is so much more. One key is the all solid wood body. This means that as the AS-06 is well loved and played over the years that it will continue to improve in sound. You deserve an acoustic that will sound great today and in decades from now.
All solid wood
Nothing is more critical to the great sound of an acoustic than the use of solid woods. While most instruments on the market compromise in this area, the AS-06 is without a compromise. The solid wood makes this a timeless instrument that will sound better over time.
Solid European Spruce Top
Cort hand selects premium spruce for the AS-06. The use of European Spruce for the top delivers a big and bold sound. The density of spruce assures a strong attack and excellent projection.
Solid Blackwood Back & Sides
The exquisite solid wood back and sides of the AS-06 are made from blackwood. This exotic wood was selected for the AS series due to its highly desirable sonic characteristics. It is warm, while still adding projection.
SONICALLY CLEAR, ULTRA-THIN UV FINISH
A great acoustic like the AS-06 utilizes thin pieces of hand selected specialty woods carefully crafted together into an instrument built the vibrate as one ultimately leading to a great acoustic guitar tone. In modern acoustic guitar production the energy of the well constructed body is dampened greatly by the use of a heavy coat of paint. This constructed the instrument and limits the overall tone.
On the AS-06 Cort deploys a high tech solution to protect the full sound of this great instrument. This new UV cured painting process allows for a far thinner paint that retains the resonance and responsiveness initially crafted into the AS-06.
