Cort KX Series KX300OPRB, Mahogany Body w/Spalted Maple Top, EMG, Open Pore Raw Burst Finish

The Cort KX300OPRB from the KX Series sets a new boutique benchmark for metal-focused players who crave premium woodworking, aggressive output, and a visually striking stage-ready look. Built around a Mahogany body with a striking Spalted Maple top, this guitar balancing warmth, punch, and lashings of high-end personality.

• Unique tone duo: EMG RetroActive Super77 dual humbuckers deliver clear, high-output articulation with punchy bass dominance and a singing top end, ideal for chasing tight palm-muted riffs or soaring leads.
• Premium construction: Bolt-on neck and string-thru hardtail bridge combine to maximize sustain and resonance, producing a big, open voice that cuts through dense mixes without losing musical clarity.
• Balancing wood combo: The warm, resonant Mahogany body paired with a Spalted Maple top creates a balanced tonal footprint—rich warmth on the attack with a defined, punchy midrange for aggressive playing styles.
• Playable design: Modern double-cutaway shape with an easy-access 24-fret neck, a 25.5" scale, and a 15.75" fretboard radius designed for fast, precise shredding and precise lead work.
• Distinctive aesthetics: Raindrop fingerboard inlays and the open-pore finish deliver a raw, live appearance that mirrors the guitar’s raw, expressive voice. The visual cues—from the Spalted Maple top to the open-pore burst—signal serious stage presence.
• Expressive controls: Simple, intuitive electronics with 1 volume and 1 tone complemented by a 3-way toggle, giving you a spectrum of textures—from tight, aggressive rhythm tones to singing, high-gain solos.
• Fingerboard and feel: Jatoba fretboard provides durability and a crisp high-mid response, helping your notes cut through in high-gain contexts while preserving articulate touch for fast runs.

Designed for today’s metal sounds, the KX300OPRB excels in aggressive riffs, downtuned rhythms, and soaring leads alike. Whether you’re practicing at home, recording, or performing live, this guitar maintains focus and definition no matter how dense the mix gets. The combination of a robust mahogany core, a vivid spalted maple top, and EMG output that refuses to back down makes it ideal for players who want studio-ready tone with stage-ready attitude.
