Cort G290 FAT Antique Violin Burst Features:

Humbucker power

Raring to go. Each of the Voiced Tone VTH-77 humbuckers loaded into this guitar holds a wealth of tonal secrets ready for you to discover. With each offering a high level of output, you can be sure that your riffs will be heard. The bridge pickup is tight and punchy, with a voicing that will push each note you play to perfection. It’s crunchy, detailed, and bold. Then there’s the neck pickup, which is smooth and fluid – perfect for those screaming solos or chunky chords. With these two pickups, you’ll be able to evolve and expand your licks – no matter what genre you’re into.

Cort® CFA-III Tremolo

This uncompromising tremolo system features stainless steel saddles, solid machined steel block, and steel baseplate to provide greatly improved sustain, faster and punchier pick attack and a more coherent and balanced fundamental tone.

1 Volume & 1 Tone 5 Way Switch

The 5-way switch is custom-wired to provide glassy and sparkling single-coil sounds in the 2nd and 4th positions as well as the full-bodied and powerful humbucker sounds in the bridge, middle and neck positions.

Spoke Nut Hotrod Trussrod

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 new truss rod adjustment feature allows the player to dial in the exact amount of neck bow depending the player’s technique and playing style. Whether you are a legato fusion player with a light touch or a Texas blues master who digs hard into the strings in the lower register, this new truss rod will allow you to dial in the exact amount of bow to suit your style.

Ergo-V Neck Profile

The newly designed Ergo-V neck profile and shape provides more comfort at any position across the entire neck for enhanced playability.

Maple madness

Smooth as silk. With a neck and fingerboard made from quality birdseye maple, this guitar offers a world of opportunities and a pristine playing experience. Your hand will feel like its gliding when you’re sliding down the back of the neck, so you’ll feel free to express yourself on this finely crafted tool. And the fretboard is equally as smooth, offering you total flexibility with your fretting. The maple wood itself is bright and punchy, placing extra emphasis on the midrange of your notes. They’ll sound bigger than ever before.

Tight tremolo action

Like vibrato? Then you’ll love the Cort CFA-III tremolo bridge, which allows you to use the whammy bar with freedom. You’ll be bending notes up to the stratosphere or down to the depths in no time. And, along with Cort staggered locking machineheads, it also boosts your tuning stability massively. Your music is sure to be sharper than it’s ever been when you discover just how capable this guitar is. It’s also exceptionally nice to look at with a beautiful flamed maple top.
