Cort LUXE Frank Gambale Signature finitura naturale

Descrizione

Frank Gambale is a guitarist renowned for his use of the sweep picking and economy picking playing techniques. Normally, these techniques are used on an electric guitar, so it's interesting that Gambale has collaborated with Cort to develop this LUXE Frank Gambale Signature acoustic model. Having so many years of experience as a player and a tutor under his belt means that Gambale knows exactly what he wants from an instrument. That can be seen in all aspects of the Cort LUXE Frank Gambale Signature model. From its looks to its sound to its feel, everything about this guitar is as special as the player himself. A gig bag is even included to keep it looking special for years to come.

L.R. Baggs Element Active System

Most electro-acoustic guitars have a pickup that is hidden under the saddle. This can compromise the sound however, meaning that the true character of the instrument is never heard. That's why Gambale decided to equip his Cort Signature model with the L.R. Braggs Element Active System. This system is able to pick up even the smallest vibrations on the body so you get a sound with a wider dynamic range, allowing all of the nuances in your playing to shine through. The system also has a minimilistic design so that there's less chance of it interfering with the natural sound properties of the instrument.

Visual beauty

The Cort LUXE has a solid Adirondack spruce top with a back and sides made of flamed blackwood. The Adirondack comes from New York state while the blackwood comes from Australia. Blackwood is similar to mahogany and has a bright accent. The neck is made of mahogany and has an ebony fretboard that features 20 frets and has stunning mother of pearl inlays. There are matching design details at the bridge and in the decoration on the headstock. Everything is finished with a natural-coloured high-gloss lacquer for an instrument that looks every bit as good as it sounds.
