This is a great jazz style guitar from the worlds largest guitar manufacturer, Cort. This Yorktown model is a traditional twin humbucker, full body design with small trapese tailpiece and floating bridge.
This one is a very tidy used guitar indeed, with no issues to report. It has been fully set up and restrung on our Badlands work bench and plays very well with a low action. Obviously this can be adjusted to suit the players style.
The layout includes a 3 way pickup selector plus independent volume and tone per humbucker.
The new version without gold hardware is still current and retails around £769 online.
Here is the description and spec from Cort -
The Yorktown is a superbly crafted traditional hollow-body electric guitar that delivers a big, warm and full-bodied tone that its appearance implies. Featuring the old-world construction methods that contribute to its classic sound, the Yorktown features a spruce top, maple back and sides and a set-in Canadian hard maple neck.
