Cort KX707 EverTune & X700 Triality: Playability & Style
Two new Cort models revealed
Cort has two new models for guitarists, the 7-string Cort KX707 EverTune and the 6-string X700 Triality with three Fishman Fluence pickups and CFA-III Tremolo System.
Cort X700 Triality
The new X700 Triality was designed for modern guitarists. The contoured body ensures a striking appearance and increases playing comfort.
It has a swamp ash body, a roasted maple and walnut bolt-on neck, and 24 stainless steel frets.
CFA-III Tremolo
The hardware includes Cort Staggered Locking Tuners set and a CFA-III Tremolo. The base plate, the block and the string saddles are made of stainless steel and contribute to a better sound and more sustain.

Fishman Fluence
The Fishman Fluence Single Width single-coil pickups deliver classic, clear-sounding single-coil sounds without humming. The Fluence Open Core Classic Humbucker offers three different settings for exceptional versatility: Voicing one replicates the classic PAF tone, Voicing two offers a hot-blooded humbucker sound and Voicing three produces a muscular, overwound single-coil sound.
Available in the Open Pore Vintage Burst and Open Pore Black Burst.

Cort KX707 EverTune
This Cort KX707 EverTune follows on from the previous six-string KX700 model. It offers a newly redesigned body contour, powerful, passive Seymour Duncan Sentient, and Nazgul 7-string humbucker with high output. In addition, the EverTune bridge system is used for maximum voice stability.
Mahogany body
The mahogany body meets an ash top, which results in a good balance between warm, rich basses and clear, transparent highs. A 5-piece roasted maple and walnut neck complements this with an ebony fretboard with stainless steel frets.
