The Cort Modern in Black is a premium acoustic-electric from the company's Masterpiece series, built around a solid Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides. A modern concert body shape pairs comfortable, balanced sound with a bevel armrest and ergonomic neck that make long playing sessions notably easier. Side sound ports send a generous portion of the guitar's voice toward the player's ear for an intimate, enveloping experience, while the audience hears a tight, balanced projection. A Fishman Matrix Infinity VT preamp delivers transparent amplified sound, and ebony bridge, ebony fingerboard, and walnut neck reinforcements complete a thoughtfully designed instrument. The deep Black satin finish lends this guitar a minimalist, premium look.
