Full Description

A torrent of tone

Powerful pickups. A classic combination of a humbucker and two single-coils makes the sound of this instrument shine. The VTH-77 humbucker in the bridge provides a powerful, high output, punchy tone which will project each note with definition. In the neck and middle position sit two VTS-63 single-coil pickups. The neck is smooth and sweet, letting you lift your licks up and make them sing. Switch to the middle position and you'll get a nice, twangy, balanced voicing for your riffs. And there's a treble bleed circuit which lets treble frequencies come through even with the volume knob turned down. Endless possibilities.

Maple mastery

Play your way. With a Canadian hardmaple neck and in your hands, you'll be able to fire through riffs. It creates a bright, punchy resonance which emphasises the midrange of your notes, so everything you play will sound bright and prominent. With a bevelled heel, you'll also enjoy super easy access to the upper frets – perfect for soloing. Let nothing stand in your way to perfect playing.

Resoundingly reliable

You can trust it. The Cort G280 is equipped to handle all the playing you can throw at it. There's a CFA-III Tremolo, which lets you use the whammy bar to put vibrato in your notes. And it offers strong sustain too. Staggered locking machineheads help this guitar stay reliably in tune, so you won't have to worry about constantly fiddling with them. Then there's the authentic bone nut, which helps support the strings and helps them resonate freely. You can be sure that this is one watertight instrument, which will perform perfectly every time you play.
