Inspired by vintage icons, the CR300 Deluxe embodies the spirit of Cort's Classic Rock series: familiar sensations, timeless aesthetics, and modern reliability. The flamed maple top enhances the look without sacrificing resonance, while the meticulous craftsmanship ensures a guitar ready for both stage and studio.
Ideal for intermediate to advanced guitarists, it also suits ambitious beginners seeking a durable instrument. Its natural playground ranges from classic rock and blues to hard rock, as well as pop and indie. The SH-2n neck pickup delivers detailed cleans and creamy crunches; the SH-4 bridge pickup provides the energy and projection needed for more aggressive riffs and solos.
The mahogany body/neck combination offers warmth and depth, enriched by the 15 mm maple top which adds clarity and precise "snap." The ebony fingerboard accentuates attack and note definition, while the set neck promotes sustain and natural compression. The Seymour Duncan SH-2n and SH-4 form a versatile duo: balanced intermediate positions, firm lows, present mids, and singing highs. The 2 volumes / 2 tones electronics and 3-way selector allow quick shaping of the tone, from sparkling cleans to tight leads, with a wide dynamic range.
To preserve the original feel and balance, a set of nickel strings 10-46 (such as D'Addario EXL110) is perfectly suited. Add a comfortable strap (leather or neoprene) and a set of secure strap locks. An electric guitar capo with adjustable pressure and a stable tripod-style stand will complete a reliable and universal setup.
