Cort M600 Electric Guitar, Trans Black Burst
Series: M Series
Body Shape: Double-Cutaway
Orientation: Right-Handed
Finish: Trans Black Burst
Overview
The Cort M600 is a stylish electric guitar that combines classic design with modern refinements, delivering rich humbucker tones, comfortable playability and impressive sustain. Its elegant double-cutaway body, flamed maple veneer top and set-neck construction create a premium look and feel, making it an excellent choice for players seeking a versatile instrument for practice, recording and live performance.
Powered by a pair of Cort Voiced Tone VTH59 humbuckers, the M600 delivers warm, full-bodied tones inspired by classic vintage pickups. From smooth, rounded clean sounds to punchy blues and powerful rock tones, its dual-humbucker configuration provides a broad tonal palette suitable for a variety of musical styles.
Finished in Trans Black Burst, the figured maple veneer is framed by darker edges to create depth and contrast across the body. Combined with a rosewood fingerboard, white pearl block inlays and nickel hardware, the M600 offers a distinctive appearance that complements its versatile sound.
Key Features
Playability and Comfort
The M600 features a mahogany neck with a comfortable C-shaped profile, designed to provide a familiar feel for chords, riffs and lead playing. Its 12-inch fingerboard radius offers a relatively flat playing surface that supports expressive string bends, while the 22 frets and double-cutaway design allow comfortable access to the upper register.
The 24.75-inch scale length provides a slightly shorter feel than a traditional 25.5-inch electric guitar, making bends and chord work comfortable for many playing styles.
Tonewoods and Construction
A mahogany body provides a warm tonal foundation with a rich midrange, while the flamed maple veneer top adds striking visual character. The set-neck construction supports resonance and sustain, complementing the guitar's vintage-inspired tonal design.
The mahogany neck is paired with a rosewood fingerboard, offering a smooth playing surface and a classic aesthetic. White pearl block inlays complete the refined look.
Electronics
The M600 is equipped with two Cort Voiced Tone VTH59 humbuckers, designed to deliver full-bodied tones with a vintage-inspired character. Their Alnico II magnets and custom-wound coils help produce a warm, expressive sound suited to a wide range of styles.
