Cort LUXE Frank Gambale Signature Acoustic-Electric Guitar
The Cort LUXE II is the result of a close collaboration with the legendary guitarist, reflecting his years of expertise and uncompromising standards. This upgraded model incorporates the Fishman Flex Blend System, hand-picked by Gambale for its unmatched tonal clarity and versatility. The design and specifications are a seamless combination of elegant aesthetics and cutting-edge features, tailored for the demands of professional musicians.
Fishman Flex Blend System for Professional Sound
The electronics feature the Fishman Flex Blend System, which includes a blend of an undersaddle pickup and a condenser microphone. Frank Gambale lauds this system as "powerful and rich with crystal-clear tones." It offers precise tonal control with volume, tone, and blend adjustments, making it perfect for both live performances and studio recordings.
Torrefied Solid Sitka Spruce Top
The top is made from torrefied solid Sitka spruce, utilizing Cort's Aged to Vintage (ATV) treatment to replicate the rich tonal qualities of a vintage guitar. This enhances resonance, projection, and tonal maturity from the first strum.
Premium Body and Construction
With a solid maple body and meticulously crafted details, the LUXE delivers a balanced tone with bright, focused highs and a full-bodied midrange. The ergonomic body shape ensures maximum comfort, suitable for extended playing sessions.
Mahogany Neck with Walnut Reinforcement
The reinforced mahogany neck provides exceptional stability, ensuring consistent playability even in varying climates. Combined with a satin finish, it offers a smooth playing experience that meets the demands of complex fingerstyle or high-speed passages.
LUXE II Custom Design by a Master Guitarist
The design incorporates ideas directly inspired by Gambale’s storied career. Every detail, from the shape and balance to the choice of tonewoods, reflects his personal preferences and signature style.
