The Cort Earth 70 is the world's best-selling western guitar for the beginning guitarist. And that's not surprising; a beautifully built guitar with a solid spruce top, laminated mahogany sides and back and an ovangkol fingerboard that -for this price- sounds super good.
The guitar has a double bound body, closed oil-bath tuners and "open-pore" satin finish. For the beginning guitarist we want to offer the best available on the market. Especially when you start playing the guitar, you will benefit from a great guitar that sounds good, is well built and nicely finished.
Cort is built in the Indonesian Cor-tek factory that has been the court producer for many years for many other very large guitar brands such as Ibanez, PRS and Fender and produces over 1 million guitars annually!
In fact, it is the house brand of Cor-tek, although Cort is really a well-established brand in its own right and has been a market leader in the entry-level segment for years, with a nice product, lots of choice and good prices
Because of the sheer volume of instruments built at Cort, you benefit from the law of large numbers at Cort; the quality of materials and build quality / finish is very consistent. Ailments or problems that (seem to) be inherent to the price range that we sometimes encounter with most other brands, are rare and exceptional with Cort.
