Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Cort AF500CE OP have a built-in tuner?
Yes. The onboard Cort CE304T preamp includes a built-in LED tuner along with a 3-band EQ, so you can tune and shape your tone without a separate clip-on tuner.
What is the difference between the AF500C and AF500CE?
The AF500CE adds a Cort CE304T preamp with 3-band EQ and a built-in tuner to the same concert cutaway body, tonewoods and hardware as the AF500C. The AF500C is a purely acoustic guitar with no electronics.
What is the fretboard and bridge made of?
The fretboard and bridge are both Merbau, a durable tonewood used across Cort's Standard Series. The scooped bridge design increases string angle and sustain while reducing finger tension.
