Cort Jade Classics Acoustic-Electric Guitars Cort has released the Jade Classics acousticelectric guitars .
While the pearloid pastels are an aesthetic throwback to 1950s rock-n-roll , the Jade Classics have modern features for players who are in the market for a smaller-size guitar . The immediate appeal of the Jade Classics is their small-body design and new colours : pastel yellow , pastel pink , and sky-blue open pore . The
1950s-era pearloid is applied to the headstock and pickguard , and gives these guitars their sparkle . Cort says the guitars produce a sweet , warm tone thanks to the all-mahogany construction developed in accordance with recent acoustic guitar market trends . The mahogany back and sides , while darkersounding than spruce , are comparatively warmer with a full , rich mid-range . The unique construction gives Jade Classics their tonal depth . There is an onboard Cort
CE304T pickup and a three-band EQ for tonal flexibility . The preamp also includes a convenient LED tuner .
