Highlights
Maple and Ash Top on Mahogany Body
The combination of maple and ash top on a mahogany body ensures a great balance between warm yet full sounding lows and bright and transparent highs, not to mention beautiful wood grain of ash top on non-painted areas for a more natural organic aesthetic.
Fishman® Fluence Modern Humbucker
Original and totally re-imagined, Fishman Fluence pickups are free from the hum, noise and frustrating inductance issues that plague even the most coveted wire wound pickups— revealing pure, uncorrupted and musical tone.
1 Volume & 1 Tone Push/Pull Knob with 3 Way Pickup Selector
While maintaining a simple look, the ingenious push/pull function on both the volume and tone knob in combination with 3 way pickup selector unleashes the full potential of the Fishman® Fluence Modern Humbucker set.
– Volume Knob Push/Pull: Voice1/Voice2
– Tone Knob Push/Pull: Full Humbucker/Coil-Split
Individual Hardtail Bridge
Individual hardtail bridge unit for each string that feeds through the body results in greatly improved sustain, superb string separation for greater articulation and precise intonation.
Updated Body Contour
Deeper belly cut and lower horn cut on the back side of the X Series provide players with greater comfort and optimized playability.
Spoke Nut Hotrod Truss Rod
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 spoke nut truss rod adjustment feature allows the player to dial in the exact amount of neck bow depending the player’s technique and playing style.
Multi Scale (24.75″-25.5″) Frets
The multi-scale length conforms to how your hand moves up and down the neck so that your wrists and fingers naturally follow the layout of the frets as you move from the low to the high register of the fingerboard. For X700 Mutility, the neutral fret (the center of the spread of the frets) starts at the zero fret.
Stainless Steel Frets
Stainless steel frets boast excellent resistance to corrosion. The wide and tall fret-type offers a quick response, good articulation when playing chords and a clear tone when playing single notes.
Roasted Maple Neck & Fingerboard
By treating the Maple wood in an oxygen-free oven at a high temperature, the wood stabilizes and develops a golden-brownish look for enhanced stability as well as a more vintage look and big bolder tone.
Luminlay Side and Fingerboard Markers
The Luminlay dot position markers make it easy for players to see the fretboard position when performing on dark stages.
‘Next Gen’ Cort Logo
The modern and sleek design of the ‘Next Gen’ Cort logo was developed and applied to perfectly complement the aggressive styling of the X and KX Series.
