You'll be shredding through songs with ease, with the ebony fretboard and pristine neck allowing for incredibly fast access to each fret position.

The magical multi-scale
The peak of playability. With multi-scale technology underneath your fingertips, you'll open up a world of possibilities. Each fret is designed to facilitate maximum manoeuvrability and the utmost comfort when you're fretting.

Fishman® Fluence Modern Humbucker Set for 7-Strings
Original and totally re-imagined, Fishman Fluence pickups are free from the hum, noise and frustrating inductance issues that plague even the most coveted wire wound pickups— revealing pure, uncorrupted and musical tone.
Perfect playing
A fortress of playability. Adorned with a maple and purple heart neck, this guitar offers the slickest fretting possible. Your hand will slide to each position with unparalleled ease, helped along further by multi-scale technology. The macassar ebony fretboard complements this perfectly, giving your fingers all the smoothness they desire. Both the ebony and maple have a bright resonance, which helps each note leap outwith even more attack – especially good for high gain settings.
Poplar Burl Top on Mahogany Body
The strikingly figured Poplar Burl top and Mahogany body complement each other perfectly to produce a warm yet punchy high-midrange sound that will cut through the mix with authority.
1 Volume & 1 Tone Push/Pull Knob with 3 Way Pickup Selector
While maintaining a simple look, the ingenious push/pull function on both the volume and tone knob in combination with 3 way pickup selector unleashes the full potential of the Fishman® Fluence Modern Humbucker set.
- Volume Knob Push/Pull: Voice1/Voice2
- Tone Knob Push/Pull: Full Humbucker/Coil-Split
Individual Hardtail Bridge
Individual hardtail bridge unit for each string that feeds through the body results in greatly improved sustain, superb string separation for greater articulation and precise intonation.
Macassar Ebony Fingerboard
Very similar to rosewood in both looks and sound, the Macassar Ebony produces a deep rich sound with sweet yet cutting highs. The new “Raindrop” fingerboard inlay designed specifically for this model provides a distinctive look.
Spoke Nut Hotrod Truss Rod
The spoke nut Hotrod truss rod ensures smooth and precise setting of the neck bow. Often overlooked by many guitarists, the neck bow (or relief) is very critical for the best possible playability. This spoke nut truss rod adjustment feature allows the player to dial in the exact amount of neck bow depending the player’s technique and playing style.
7-String Multi-Scale (25.5” – 27”)
Get tight and punchy low-end for the low-B and low-E strings with the extended scale length while maintaining the familiar feel and tension on the treble strings for speedy runs and string-bending. The neutral fret is now on the 8th position for more natural spread angle of the frets, ensuring better playability even on the lower frets.
5pcs Maple and Purple Heart Neck
The 5-piece Maple and Purple Heart neck not only provides strength and stability but a strong and focused sound in conjunction with the body’s acoustic resonance.
'Next Gen' Cort Logo
The modern and sleek design of the ‘Next Gen’ Cort logo was developed and applied to perfectly complement the aggressive styling of the X and KX Series.
