Inspired by the golden era
The CR200 Bigsby is part of Cort's Classic Rock Series, a range designed to capture the character of highly sought-after vintage instruments. Its traditional single-cut design, elegant Gold Top finish, and all-mahogany construction provide the look and feel associated with some of the most iconic electric guitars ever produced. The combination of warm resonance, focused midrange response, and natural sustain makes it a versatile instrument capable of covering a wide variety of musical styles while retaining a distinctly vintage voice.
Set-neck sustain and resonance
The set-neck construction plays a significant role in the guitar's tonal character. By creating a strong connection between the mahogany neck and body, the design promotes excellent sustain and a smooth transfer of string vibration. This results in notes that ring out with authority and chords that retain clarity and fullness. Combined with the rosewood fretboard and comfortable 24.75" scale length, the CR200 Bigsby delivers a familiar and rewarding playing experience for rhythm and lead guitarists alike.
Expressive vintage-inspired electronics
The pickup configuration combines a Cort Voiced Tone VT90 neck pickup with a nickel-covered bridge humbucker to deliver a broad range of sounds. Inspired by classic vintage designs, the pickups provide warmth, clarity, and dynamic response across clean and driven settings. The VT90 neck pickup excels at smooth lead tones and articulate chord work, while the bridge humbucker adds punch, sustain, and bite when extra power is needed. Independent volume and tone controls allow precise shaping of your sound.
Bigsby-equipped performance
The addition of a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece expands the CR200's creative potential with expressive pitch modulation and classic visual appeal. Gentle vibrato effects, subtle chord movement, and vintage-style bends are all easily achieved while maintaining the guitar's distinctive character. A Graph Tech TUSQ nut helps reduce friction and improve tuning consistency, while vintage green key machineheads provide reliable adjustment and classic styling. Together, these features deliver dependable performance while preserving the unmistakable charm of a traditional instrument.
