The Earth Series: Cort's Reimagined Vintage Acoustic Spirit
Developed as a tribute to great "vintage" acoustics, the Earth series focuses on the fundamentals that make a difference: selected tonewoods, immediate playability, and a sound inspired by the classics. With over 60 years of experience in guitar and bass manufacturing, Cort offers here a value-driven approach, aiming for a serious instrument without unnecessary frills, but with proven luthiery choices. The Cort Earth 70 fits this philosophy: a versatile and accessible acoustic designed for frequent and long playing sessions.
Who Is It For, and What Styles?
This left-handed acoustic guitar is aimed at musicians from beginner to intermediate levels who want a reliable foundation to progress, as well as more advanced guitarists seeking a simple, effective, and expressive folk guitar. Its solid spruce and mahogany combination is particularly suited for pop, folk, acoustic rock, variety, and blues. It responds well to pick playing (clear rhythms, good definition) as well as fingerstyle (articulate attack, singing midrange).
Sound Characteristics
The solid spruce soundboard delivers a crisp attack and excellent responsiveness: right-hand nuances come through easily, aiding expressiveness, especially in arpeggios. The mahogany back and sides reinforce a warm midrange register, with a sense of "focus" that places the guitar well in a mix, while maintaining beautiful clarity on chords. The choice of a open-pore finish promotes a natural feel and lively response, ideal for those who like to feel the wood under their hand. The ovangkol fingerboard and bridge combination contributes to overall balance, with precise response and pleasant articulation, useful for both fingerpicking and rhythm playing.
