G290-FAT-II-BBB G Series Electric Guitar, Blue, Cort

Boutique type design and styling along with expanded tonal options for session-style guitar at a reasonable price are the hallmarks of the new G290 FAT. Higher grade materials and hardware components along with improved build processes provide a more luxurious feel and look. A 5-way switch for the two humbuckers expands the tonal options from thick and meaty humbucker sounds to glassy and sparkling single-coil sounds for the utmost in sonic versatility.

Swamp Ash Body with Flamed Maple Top.
An essential electric guitar tonewood, Swamp Ash is lightweight but delivers a serious punch with accented high-mids.

VTH-77 Pickup Set.
Besides providing modern high output for today's high-energy music, these new VTH-77 pickups also clean up nicely to get great classic rock and bluesy tones to cover a wide variety of musical genres and playing styles.

Cort CFA-III Tremolo.
This uncompromising tremolo system includes stainless steel saddles, a steel one-piece block and a steel support plate that provides significantly improved durability, faster and sharper attack and a more consistent and balanced basic tone. The recessed unit allows you to tighten the strings to raise the pitch of the sound, as well as lower them to lower the sound, providing additional versatility of the tremolo.

Cort Staggered Locking Tuners.
The luxurious interlocking pegboard mechanics provide precise and stable tuning, as well as easier and faster string changes.

5-way Switch.
The 5-position switch has a special wiring that allows you to get a transparent and sparkling sound of the single in the 2nd and 4th positions and a rich, powerful sound of the humbucker in the bridge, middle and neck positions.

Birdseye Maple Neck and Fingerboard.
Hand-selected Birdseye Maple neck and fingerboard provide a luxurious look as well as a strong high-midrange that helps you cut through the mix.

Variable Neck Radius (12-15.75").
A great feature for guitarists who like transitions from simple chords in the low register to high-speed solos and bending in the upper register. The variable radius significantly improves playability, allowing you to focus on the game itself.

Ergo-V Neck.
The new shape of the Ergo-V neck profile provides greater comfort in any position.

Nut Hotrod Trussrod.
A truss rod with a nut nipple improves stability and also facilitates the adjustment of the bend of the neck. Guitarists often overlook that the correct bend (or relief) of the neck is critical for achieving maximum playability. This new ability to adjust the anchor rod allows you to achieve the perfect bend for the technique and playing style of a particular musician. Whether you are a legato-fusion guitarist with a light touch or a Texas blues master who burrows deep into the strings in the lower register, this new truss rod will allow you to choose the exact bend of the neck to suit your style.
