Introduced in 2020, Cort's Core Series guitars quickly became popular. They focus on what makes acoustic guitars outstanding: great playability, natural acoustic sound, and a simple yet elegant design. The Cort CORE Acoustic-Electric Dreadnought Guitar with Cutaway, made entirely of solid mahogany, continues this tradition. Solid mahogany construction gives the Core-DC Mahogany its unique tonal character. It produces a warmer, woodier sound compared to spruce tops, ideal for both fingerpicking and strumming. The combination of an ovangkol fretboard and a mahogany neck enhances this tonal warmth, delivering a balanced sound with excellent sustain. Ovangkol, similar to rosewood in tone, offers a warm midrange that complements the mahogany neck perfectly. The classic dreadnought cutaway body shape provides a powerful sound with clear highs, rich mids, and a strong low end. The cutaway allows easy access to the higher frets for playing solos and melodies. The Fishman® Sonitone electronics are discreetly integrated into the guitar. You don't have to worry about losing the instrument's natural resonance when amplifying. With simple and intuitive Volume and Tone controls, you can start playing right away. The open pore finish on the Core-DC Mahogany not only looks great but also allows the wood to vibrate more freely. This improves the natural acoustic sound and reduces the weight for more comfortable playing. The guitar comes with a deluxe soft-side case. It combines the sleekness of a hard case with the portability of a gig bag, keeping your guitar safe during transport. The Cort Core-DC Mahogany offers exceptional value for guitarists looking for a warm-sounding, easy-to-play acoustic guitar with premium features and all-solid mahogany construction.

Using your Cort CORE Acoustic-Electric Dreadnought Guitar is a breeze. First, if you want to play acoustically, just start strumming or fingerpicking right away. The guitar's solid mahogany construction gives it a warm and rich sound. If you want to amplify your sound, use the Fishman® Sonitone electronics. Just plug in your cable, adjust the Volume and Tone controls to your liking, and you're ready to go. When it comes to maintenance, keep your guitar in a dry and stable environment. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity, as this can damage the wood. Wipe the strings after each use to prevent corrosion and keep them sounding good. You can also use a soft cloth to clean the body of the guitar. The included deluxe soft-side case is great for transporting your guitar. Make sure to close it properly to protect the guitar from bumps and scratches. When changing the strings, follow the normal guitar string - changing process. And remember, the D'Addario® EXP16 Light strings are a good fit for this guitar. If you have any problems with the electronics, like the Fishman® Sonitone system, it's best to consult a professional guitar technician.
