Frequently Asked Questions
The VBT preamp offers helpful EQ controls to tame feedback, but careful monitoring and mic technique are still recommended at louder volumes.
Cort's construction is generally very reliable; the bolt-on design is well-executed and shouldn't present any major stability concerns with proper humidity control.
The Sonicore pickups provide a natural, acoustic-like amplified tone; it's not as 'bright' or aggressively processed as some other systems, which many players will appreciate.
