collapse expand iconDescription

The Cort G280 Select is a revamped followup of the previously popular G280DX. Features include a newly added pearloid pickguard, rosewood fingerboard and Voiced Tone VTH-77 hot humbucker with metal cover for that boutique high-grade look and solid build quality. Designed with the best possible playability and sonic performance in mind, the Cort G280 Select combines an alder body with a flame maple top and HSS pickup configurations for a versatile sound that can be used for both classic and modern musical genres.


Alder Body With Flamed Maple Top

The alder body provides a warm and full-bodied tone while the flamed maple top not only adds beauty but tightens up the overall sound with strong high-midrange and brilliance.

Voiced Tone VTS-63 & VTH-77 Pickup Sets

Fatter and hotter-sounding Voiced Tone VTH-77 bridge humbucker and VTS-63 single-coil pickups perfectly complement the big robust sonic characteristic of this Cort electric guitar with modern clarity in clean settings and punchy bite with great sustain when engaged in overdrive and distortion settings.

Cort CFA-III Tremolo

This uncompromising tremolo system features stainless steel saddles, solid machined steel block, and steel baseplate to provide greatly improved sustain, faster and punchier pick attack and a more coherent and balanced fundamental tone. The recessed tremolo bridge allows for pull-ups to raise the pitch as well as pushing down for lowering the pitch, providing further tremolo versatility.

Compound Radius Fingerboard (12"-16")

A deluxe feature for players who like to transition from easy chording on the low register to high-speed soloing and enhanced string-bending on the upper register, the compound radius facilitates easier playability so you can focus on your playing.

Canadian Hard Maple Neck With Rosewood Fingerboard

The combination of punchy midrange tone of solid Canadian hard Maple neck together with warm and rich tone of Rosewood has been used and proven by the legends as a classic.

Cort Staggered Locking Tuners The Cort staggered locking tuners provide excellent tuning stability as well as ease of tuning and string changes. A simple, elegant and efficient way of tuning, these tuners will allow you to focus on your playing.
