Think warm, rich sounds that take you straight back to the ‘50s and ‘60s, with modern reliability making this guitar stage-ready right out of the box.

EMG RetroActive Fat 55 pickups

At its core, the Cort CR300 nails that original PAF-style tone thanks to a pair of EMG RetroActive Fat 55 pickups. They give you sweet, vintage-inspired character with the clarity and consistency of active electronics.

Classic design

Add in a carved Maple top, semi-gloss finish and rock-solid hardware, and you’ve got an instrument that looks as good as it sounds!

  • Semi-gloss finish: A luxurious, premium look that’s oh-so smooth to the touch.
  • EMG RetroActive Fat 55 pickups: Give you the best of two worlds — warm, sweet retro sounds with all the benefits of active, low-impedance output.
  • Tune-O-Matic bridge: Provides the classic look for single-cutaway guitars and the all-important transfer of vibrational energy from the strings into the body.

More info about this Product

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Burst

A burst finish refers to a guitar finish where the colour gradually fades from a darker outer edge to a lighter centre. This technique highlights the natural grain of the wood while giving the instrument depth and visual character, making each guitar look slightly different.

Common on both electric and acoustic guitars, burst finishes range from classic sunburst styles to modern colour variations. They are popular because they combine a traditional look with a visually striking appearance that complements the shape and craftsmanship of the guitar.
