The Classic Rock Series: Cort's "Vintage Performance" DNA
For decades, Cort has established itself as a major player in the guitar world, appreciated for offering reliable and consistent instruments at all levels. With the Classic Rock series, the brand clearly targets guitarists seeking the aesthetics, feel, and efficiency of vintage rock models, while maintaining a modern and accessible playability. The CR100 fits this philosophy: an electric guitar designed to deliver a true rock temperament, with simple and proven luthiery.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
The Cort CR100 is well suited for beginners who want to start on a rock-oriented guitar, as well as intermediate players looking for a direct, easy-to-adjust, and effective instrument for rehearsals. Its configuration with two humbuckers makes it comfortable in rock, hard rock, blues rock, and, with more pronounced distortion, in heavier styles. The 42 mm nut width offers a rather compact playing feel, pleasant for chords and rhythm parts.
Sound
The mahogany body provides a round and dense sonic foundation, with present mids and natural sustain that highlights both riffs and solos. The maple neck adds definition and a sharper attack, helping the guitar stay clear in a mix, especially with saturated tones. The jatoba fingerboard contributes to a precise and balanced response, with a firm playing feel under the fingers. On the amplification side, the two Powersound humbuckers deliver a thick and powerful sound, ideal for punchy crunches and rock distortions, while remaining usable for cleaner tones when playing dynamically.

Customer reviews
What customers say
Summarized and selected by AI from recent customer reviews
Customers praised this guitar for its stunning appearance with beautiful cherry red sunburst colors and authentic Les Paul sound quality. The playability and finish earned high marks. However, some noted string buzzing issues with stock strings, particularly on lower strings, requiring heavier gauge strings (10-46 or 11-52) due to the shorter scale length. Overall, customers found it excellent value.

Very beautiful. Good workmanship. Basic microphones but perform well with a good amp. You must quickly put strings at least 10-46 because the tuning fork is shorter than a strat. Tuning fork that allows a very specific game in both rock and blues. A great value for money to have fun.

Cort forgot, Woodbrass too, beginners in electric guitar (note I practice on classical guitar and 12-string folk guitar)... first, I know that I ordered a CR100, what I received looks like 2 drops of water, but with the name Classic Rock... is it the same product? guitar very quickly tuned, amazement, the bass borders a lot with the set of strings in place by Addario EXL 110, unplayable! request for advice from Woodbrass, answer: confirmation of the tie rod in place of the ELX 110 0.10-0.46, if it does not fit... go see a luthier!!!!!! As a beginner, I find this answer scandalous... the quality is not optimal at the end of the Cort production lines, the quality and the verification of the quality of the product are not respected either before the products are shipped by Woodbrass!! It ruins the pleasure of starting with your new guitar, bogged down by the fact of having to do a complete adjustment! - my conclusion: putting an ELX 116 string tie rod from d'Addario, 0.11-052... not touching anything else, it's not a question of adjusting the height of the strings, or adjusting the neck (which does not exist, by the way), but just going from a pull light to a medium tension rod... why not provide the guitar at the end of the production of the set with adequate strings????
