Cort Kx507 MS 7 Pale Moon

The Essentials to Know About the Cort KX507MS Guitar

• Modern and incisive 7-string: designed for low tunings and precise riffs, ideal for metal, prog, and djent.


• Double cutaway body shape: smooth access to the upper frets and ergonomics tailored for technical playing.


• Fishman Fluence Modern pickups: sharp attack, high output level, and excellent definition, even under heavy distortion.


• Multiscale (fanned frets) + stainless steel frets: better tension distribution across 7 strings and increased durability for intensive use.

A KX Designed for the Modern Guitarist in the Cort Range

For over 60 years, Cort has developed guitars known for their excellent value for money. The KX series follows this logic with a contemporary design and technical choices focused on performance: an efficient double cutaway, craftsmanship designed for stability, and electronics capable of handling the most demanding styles. The KX507MS takes the concept further with a 7-string multiscale configuration, perfectly suited for modern playing and extended tunings.

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

The Cort KX507MS is primarily aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists looking for a reliable 7-string electric for stage, home studio, and rehearsals. Its comfort in the upper frets and very precise response make it especially suitable for styles where clarity is crucial: modern metal, progressive, hardcore, fusion, as well as powerful rock with cleaner, hi-fi tones. The push-pull controls on volume and tone expand the tonal palette without complicating usage.

The Sound

The mahogany body provides a dense sonic foundation, with rich low-mids and a solid sustain feel, ideal for heavy rhythm playing. The "Pale Moon" ebony top enhances attack and precision, helping maintain definition on the 7th string. The 5-piece maple and purpleheart bolt-on neck focuses on stability and a snappy response, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard promotes clear articulation and fast playing. On the electronics side, the two Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers deliver a powerful, tight, and very clear signal, with harmonics that are easy to bring out and excellent performance in low tunings. The 3-position selector and push-pull functions allow quick switching from sharp rhythm tones to more open nuances as needed.
