The Cort Gold A8 Auditorium Acoustic - Electric Guitar with Light Burst is a top - notch choice for guitar players wanting a professional - grade instrument. It offers a rich vintage sound along with modern playability. Thanks to Cort's Aged - to - Vintage (ATV) process, the solid Sitka spruce top mimics the warm tone of well - aged guitars. Paired with solid Pau Ferro back and sides, it creates a perfectly balanced sound for all music genres.
This guitar features a versatile auditorium cutaway body, great for both strumming and fingerstyle playing. Its comfortable size suits various playing styles, making it flexible for guitarists. The Fishman® Flex Blend System allows for easy amplification, providing excellent sound control and a built - in tuner.
The Gold A8 shows off exquisite craftsmanship. Hand - rolled fret edges ensure smooth playing, and the double - lock neck joint maximizes resonance. It also has a sonically enhanced UV finish that protects the wood while letting it 'breathe', resulting in a richer and more natural tone.

Using the Cort Gold A8 guitar is a breeze. Whether you're strumming chords or playing fingerstyle, the auditorium cutaway body gives you easy access to the higher frets. Just plug it into an amplifier using the Fishman Flex Blend System for great sound. You can use the built - in tuner to keep your guitar in tune.
When it comes to maintenance, keep your guitar in a stable environment. Avoid extreme temperatures and humidity as they can damage the wood. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to prevent corrosion. And make sure to change the strings regularly for the best sound.
For the body, use a soft, dry cloth to clean it. If you need to, you can use a mild guitar cleaner, but test it on a small, hidden area first. Also, store your guitar in the exclusive deluxe soft - side case when not in use to protect it from scratches and bumps.
