Cort CR300 Deluxe – Flaming Burst

Vintage single-cut authority, deluxe appointments.

Top personal recommendation for an alternative and considerable upgrade  to the Vintage Les Paul V100.

The CR300 Deluxe takes Cort’s classic CR formula and dresses it to the nines: a flamed maple top over mahogany, ebony fingerboard with block inlays, gold hardware and a Graph Tech TUSQ nut for rock-solid tuning. Under the hood, a factory-fitted Seymour Duncan Hot-Rodded set (SH-2n Jazz / SH-4 JB) delivers sparkling cleans, sweet PAF-style midrange and singing, harmonically rich overdrive — the versatile “do-it-all” combo that’s graced countless records.

• Hot-Rodded tones: SH-2n Jazz (neck) for articulate, glassy cleans; SH-4 JB (bridge) for punchy mids and sustain. A proven pairing that covers blues to classic/hard rock with ease.

• Premium feel: Ebony board, block inlays and Grover Rotomatics give a slick, stable playing experience.

• Classic build, modern reliability: Set mahogany neck, TOM/stopbar and TUSQ nut keep things intonated, resonant and gig-ready.
