This second hand guitar is in great condition
The Cort Core OC All Blackwood is a beautifully built, warm‑sounding, modern acoustic that punches far above its price. The all‑blackwood construction gives it a distinctive tonal character, earthy, focused, and intimate, while the Open Pore finish keeps it resonant and lightweight. It’s ideal for fingerstyle, singer‑songwriters, and players who want a boutique aesthetic without boutique pricing.
Build Quality & Construction
🪵 Tonewoods
- Top: Solid Blackwood
- Back & Sides: Solid Blackwood
- Neck: Mahogany
- Fretboard: Ovangkol
- Bridge: Ovangkol
Tonally, blackwood sits somewhere between koa and mahogany:
- Warm mids
- Tight, controlled bass
- Sweet, rounded highs
- A slightly dry character that records beautifully
The Open Pore finish lets the wood breathe, improving resonance and giving the guitar a natural, organic feel in the hands.
Body Shape: OC (Orchestra Cutaway)
The OC body is:
- More focused than a dreadnought
- Perfect for fingerstyle and light strumming
- Comfortable for long sessions
- Balanced across the frequency range
Tone & Projection
Acoustic Tone
Expect:
- Warm, woody mids
- Clear but not harsh treble
- Tight, articulate bass
- Excellent note separation
It’s not a cannon like a dreadnought, but it’s expressive, responsive, and beautifully balanced. Blackwood tends to open up over time, so the guitar gets richer the more you play it.
🎤 Plugged‑In Tone
Plugged in, its:
- Clean
- Natural
- Easy to EQ
- Great for live use or home recording
Hardware & Playability

- Smooth fretwork
- Comfortable neck profile
- Lightweight and resonant

Aesthetics
The Open Pore Lightburst finish is stunning:
- Natural wood grain on full display
- Subtle burst that feels modern and classy
- Minimalist rosette and binding
- Boutique‑style simplicity
The Cort Core OC All Blackwood is a fantastic choice for players who want:
- A modern, warm‑voiced acoustic
- All‑solid construction without the premium price
- A comfortable, expressive body shape
- A guitar that excels at fingerstyle and melodic playing
- A boutique look with real character
It’s one of the most underrated acoustics in its class and a brilliant option for home players, recording musicians, and anyone who appreciates tonewoods that age gracefully.
Fishman Sonitone
Installed internally without cutting out any of the woods, the Sonitone EQ system retains all the natural resonance and the pure acoustic sound that other systems can’t. The controls are simple to use as well with only Volume and Tone.
