The Cort Essence OC4 Natural offers an unadulterated acoustic guitar experience with a timeless look and vintage charm. By focusing on the core elements of the best possible sound quality and playability, Cort has created a guitar that offers exceptional tone and effortless performance.
The compact size of the Orchestra, also known as the OM, is perfect for players with a smaller body or those looking for a comfortable playing experience. The bright and strong emphasis on the high mids makes it more suitable for fingerpicking than strumming, which often requires more low notes. The Venetian cutaway of this model allows easy access to the high frets.
Spruce wood offers an ideal balance between strength and flexibility and is therefore the most popular choice for acoustic guitar tops. As a guitar top, Sitka spruce is the standard tonewood of modern times. The combination of strength and elasticity results in a wide dynamic range that allows for clear articulation.
Using a special process called ATV (Aged To Vintage), Cort luthiers treat the top and bracing of solid Sitka spruce to achieve the full, open sound of a decades-old acoustic guitar. This torrefaction process provides that amazing tone right out of the box and makes the guitar more tuning stable and resonant over time.
