The Cort Gold-A8 takes vintage tone to the next level with its Aged-to-Vintage (ATV) torrefied Sitka spruce top, delivering an open, resonant sound right out of the box. Paired with solid Pau Ferro back and sides for a warm, balanced midrange, this model also features a sleek UV finish for long-lasting protection. Complete with Fishman® Flex Blend electronics and a built-in tuner, the Gold-A8 blends classic character with modern functionality—now available in both Natural Gloss and the stunning new Light Burst finish.
