The Cort KX500 was designed for modern musicians seeking supreme aesthetics, component quality, and material craftsmanship in a guitar versatile enough for genres ranging from djent metal to prog rock. Drawing inspiration from the acclaimed KX508MS and KX500MS, the KX500 Etched Black emerges as the premier 6-string model of the KX Series. It's outfitted with the increasingly favored Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers, celebrated for their adaptability among discerning players.
The guitar showcases an Ash Burl top set on a Mahogany body. Ash Burl, an exotic wood, is chosen for its unique, deep, multi-layered "etched" appearance, offering a visually stunning 3-dimensional effect. Sonically, the wood delivers a bright, shimmering tone paired with a robust midrange punch, perfectly complementing the warm, dense resonance of the Mahogany body.
Equipped with the innovative Fishman® Fluence Modern Humbucker, these pickups redefine the standard by eliminating the common hum, noise, and inductance issues found in traditional wire-wound pickups. The result is a pure, undistorted, and musically rich tone.
The guitar's functionality is enhanced by its 1 Volume and 1 Tone Push/Pull knob, combined with a 3-way pickup selector. This setup unleashes the full potential of the Fishman® Fluence Modern Humbucker set on the KX500, offering:
Sustain and resonance are optimized through the string-thru-body hardtail bridge, which channels vibration directly into the Mahogany body.
The Macassar Ebony Fingerboard, visually and sonically akin to Rosewood, produces a rich sound with sweet, pronounced highs. The unique "Raindrop" inlay, exclusive to this model, adds a distinctive aesthetic touch.
Neck stability and ease of adjustment are assured with the spoke nut hotrod truss rod. Meanwhile, the Cort® Staggered Locking Machineheads maintain excellent tuning stability by preventing string slippage at the posts and allow for swift string changes.
The neck, a combination of 5 pieces of Maple and Purpleheart, not only offers durability and stability but also enhances the guitar's sonic focus, harmonizing with the body's natural acoustic resonance.
The guitar's aesthetic is completed with the modern and sleek 'Next Gen' Cort logo, designed to align with the aggressive styling of the X and KX Series.
