Cort Gold Edge NAT w/case

The Cort Gold-Edge is optimized for exceptional acoustic tone and playability right from the start. Premium touches like the walnut-reinforced neck, hand-rolled fretboard edges, comfort bevel and elevate Gold-Edge to a class all its own.

With the Cort Gold-Edge, playing acoustic guitar has never been more comfortable. Combining world-class tonality with a focus on ergonomics and playability, Gold-Edge delivers a premium playing experience with a “just right” feel.

Aged Top for Truly Vintage Tone
The Aged-to-Vintage solid spruce top imbues the Gold-Edge with the big, open tone that vintage acoustic guitars are prized for. Between its lively dynamic response and harmonically-complex tone, Gold-Edge sings with a rich voice whether you’re strumming, picking, or playing fingerstyle.

“AAA” Tonewoods with Museum-quality Figuring
The Gold-Edge is crafted with flamed myrtlewood back and sides to enhance low-mid richness and overall projection, and topped with solid spruce for delicate clarity. It’s an ideal tonewood combination for fingerpicking and strumming alike.

Balanced Grand Auditorium Tone
Our Grand Auditorium body shape offers a fantastic balance of volume, clarity, and comfort. With fuller tone than a Grand Concert, and greater midrange emphasis than a Dreadnought, Gold-Edge excels on stage and in the studio.

World-class Electronics for Sweet Acoustic Tone
Combining a miniature microphone with a traditional piezo pickup, the L.R. Baggs Anthem system gives you studio-quality acoustic tone wherever you plug in.

Sonically Enhanced UV Finish for Truer Tone
The Gold-Edge's UV finish allows the wood to vibrate and breathe more naturally, and is alto ideal for your instrument's longevity.

Aged to Vintage Top
A vintage instrument is the holy grail of acoustic guitar tone. The wood on the top cures and opens up more over time. This unleashes a tonal quality that is missing in new instruments - until now. Using a special process we call ATV (Aged To Vintage), we treat the solid sitka spruce top to give it that big and open tone of a decades-old, highly-sought-after acoustic. This torrefaction process delivers that amazing tone to you right out of the box.

Smoothed Edges for That "Just-right" Feel
Whether you're playing seated or standing, the Gold-Edge's hand-rolled fret and body edges deliver an amazingly comfortable playing experience. While the hand-rolling process is complex and time consuming, it gives the Gold-Edge the smooth and effortless feel you need to truly express yourself.

Walnut Reinforced Neck
The neck on the Gold has been reinforced for added rigidity and stability using two special inserts. This is constructed with two pieces of walnut installed to add stability while still retaining the natural properties of wood to further upgrade the Gold.

Neck Profile
Cort's neck thickness graduation from the headstock to the heel is optimized to increase comfort in your hands and optimize playability. To assure consistency, Cort uses state-of-the-art CNC machines to accurately mill each and every neck. Each neck is then carefully sanded and finished by skilled craftsmen.

Ebony Fingerboard
There are many types of woods that are used for fingerboard but no other compares to the jet-black beauty and slick smoothness of Ebony.

Evolution Bridge Pins
The high density of Ebony wood keeps the fundamental acoustic sound focused and tight with greater sonic projection than plastic, enhancing the transfer of the string vibrations throughout the soundboard top, body and the neck.
