Overview
The Cort Modern Burst is a forward-thinking acoustic-electric guitar from the esteemed Masterpiece Series, designed for players who want cutting-edge acoustic performance. By eliminating the traditional soundhole from the Master Grade solid European spruce top, Cort allows the soundboard to resonate with maximum freedom, enhancing sustain, sensitivity, and tonal depth. Instead, the guitar uses dual side sound ports that project sound directly toward the player, offering unparalleled monitoring and a more immersive playing experience. Paired with solid mahogany back and sides, the Modern Burst produces a warm, expressive midrange with bell-like clarity in the highs, making it ideal for dynamic strumming and nuanced fingerstyle.
The Modern Burst is engineered for long playing sessions, featuring a “Modern Concert” body with ergonomic bevels for the arm and rib, plus a smooth Venetian cutaway for easy upper-fret access. The Fishman Matrix Infinity VT system provides natural, transparent amplification with discreet soundhole-mounted controls. With high-end appointments such as an ebony fingerboard, Graph Tech Black TUSQ nut and saddle, and gold Gotoh 510Z tuners, the Modern Burst delivers premium performance and reliability. A hard case is included for protection.
