Cort Guitars release the new KX300 Etched

Cort Guitars introduces the new KX300 Etched electric guitar. The KX300 Etched is covered in matte black and accented with red or gold paint applied only to the wood grains. However, they’ll find that the raw impact of this guitar goes beyond its surface, resonating through the instrument and translating to a unique tonal response.

The new KX300 Etched adds an even more distinctive look to the double-cutaway body with all-new color finishes of etched black red (EBR) and etched black gold (EBG). Cort starts with a 15 mm solid ash top that’s sand-blasted for an open-pore finish and then treated with either red or gold color accents on the matte black background for this special effect.

The ash top of the KX300 Etched is perfectly complemented by its mahogany body. The newly designed high-mass hardtail bridge is added to improve sustain as well as resonance.  It has a bolt-on construction.  The hard maple neck has a 24-fret pau-ferro fingerboard with a 15.75’’ (400 mm) radius and 25.5’’ (648 mm) scale. The guitars sport a raindrop fingerboard.

The EMG^® RetroActive Super 77 dual humbuckers make this gutiar suited for metal.

The Cort KX300 Etched guitar starts off at $749.99 and is available in European stores already.
