<p><strong>Overview </strong></p><br><p>The Cort KX508MS KX Series 8 String Electric Guitar in Mariana Blue Burst is a groundbreaking instrument, marking Cort's first foray into the realm of multi-scale 8-string guitars. This model is designed to cater to the needs of modern rock players, offering a variety of great sounds through the highly regarded Fishman® Fluence Modern pickups. These pickups are acclaimed for their ability to deliver both active and passive tones, ranging from brutal modern metal distortion to sweet, clean vintage-like sounds.</p><br><p>The guitar features a lightweight Swamp Ash body, known for its punchy high-mids, topped with a visually stunning Poplar Burl, adding a unique aesthetic touch. The individual hardtail bridge for each string, combined with a string-thru body design, ensures greatly improved sustain, superb string separation for enhanced articulation, and precise intonation.</p><br><p>The KX508MS is equipped with a 26.5-28” multi-scale fret system, offering a tight and punchy low-end for the low-B and low-F# strings, while maintaining a familiar feel and tension on the treble strings. The Macassar Ebony fingerboard, adorned with Teardrop inlays, provides a cutting high-end and smooth playability. The 5-piece Maple and Purple Heart neck not only offers strength and stability but also contributes to a focused sound in conjunction with the body’s acoustic resonance.</p><br><h4><strong>Specifications and Features</strong></h4><br><ul><br><li><br><h4><strong>Construction:</strong> Bolt-On</h4><br></li><br><li><strong>Body:</strong> Swamp Ash</li><br><li><strong>Top:</strong> Poplar Burl</li><br><li><strong>Neck:</strong> 5pcs Maple & Purple Heart</li><br><li><strong>Fretboard:</strong> Macassar Ebony 400 Radius</li><br><li><strong>Frets:</strong> 24</li><br><li><strong>Scale:</strong> 26.5-28" 673-711 Multi-Scale</li><br><li><strong>Inlay:</strong> Teardrop</li><br><li><strong>Tuners:</strong> Cort® Staggered Locking Machineheads</li><br><li><strong>Bridge:</strong> Individual Hardtail w/ String-Thru Body</li><br><li><strong>Pickups:</strong> Fishman® Fluence Modern Humbucker Set</li><br><li><strong>Electronics:</strong> 1 VolumeP.P. & 1 ToneP.P. 3 Way Pickup Selector</li><br><li><strong>Hardware:</strong> Black Nickel</li><br><li><strong>Strings:</strong> D'Addario® EXL120-8</li><br></ul>
