Cort KX300 Etched (Etched Black Gold) is a 6-string electric guitar with a 648 mm scale and 24 frets.
This version combines a Etched Black Gold finish, EMG RetroActive Super77 Set pickups and a Hardtail String-Through-Body bridge. It supports rhythm parts, melodies and technique practice; your amplifier and picking approach also shape the final sound.
KX300 Etched in detail
The KX300 Etched gets its textured appearance from a sand-blasted 15 mm swamp ash top. Coloured accents highlight the natural grain, giving each instrument its own pattern. Its mahogany body is paired with a Pau Ferro fingerboard and raindrop markers. EMG RetroActive Super77 pickups suit defined attack and full rock sounds, while straightforward volume, tone and toggle controls make it easy to find a working sound.
Construction and playing feel
Body: Mahogany. Neck: Hard Maple. Fingerboard: Pau Ferro. Top: Sand-Blasted Swamp Ash (15 mm). The 648 mm scale is paired with 24 frets.
The 400 mm fingerboard radius describes its crosswise curvature. Consider the radius together with the neck profile, action and your approach to bending strings.
Pickups and controls
The EMG RetroActive Super77 Set system uses a HH layout. Controls: 1 Volume / 1 Tone. The selector provides 3 positions.
The active electronics require power. They suit saturated gain and defined rhythm work. Unplug the instrument cable after playing to conserve battery life.
Bridge and maintenance
The fixed Hardtail String-Through-Body bridge suits riff work and lead playing without an arm. Stretch new strings before final tuning, and check intonation and neck relief after a gauge change. Set intonation in your intended tuning.
The hardware includes Die-Cast tuners. Factory string gauge: D’Addario EXL110 (.010–.046). Wiping the strings and hardware after playing helps maintain the instrument.
