Cort Gold-A8 'Light Burst' Acoustic Electric Guitar

The Cort Gold-A8 'Light Burst' is a refined, performance-ready acoustic-electric built for players who want premium tone, responsiveness and versatility in one instrument. Its torrefied solid Sitka spruce top is treated with Cort's Aged to Vintage (ATV) process, giving it an open, mature sound with the warmth and depth of a well-played vintage guitar from the very first strum, while the Auditorium cutaway body offers a balanced voice suited to everything from fingerstyle detail to confident strumming.

Solid Pau Ferro back and sides add clarity, articulation and rich harmonic complexity, and the walnut-reinforced mahogany neck provides excellent stability while the ebony fingerboard and bridge, complete with ebony bridge pins and a genuine bone nut and saddle, deliver a smooth feel and strong note definition. Equipped with the Fishman Flex Blend system for natural amplified tone with precise control, and finished in a lightweight sonically enhanced UV gloss, the Gold-A8 is ideal for gigging players who want a professional-grade all-rounder for stage and studio.
