The Nantel Verdict
The Nantel Verdict
Solid tonewood construction for rich, resonant tone improving with age. Responsive top rewarding dynamic playing and fingerstyle technique. Natural acoustic voice connecting player to music without electronic barrier. Quality construction built for years of regular playing.
Play this guitar unplugged as much as possible - the solid wood top needs vibration to open up and mature. Daily playing accelerates this beautifully.
At this level, you get tonewoods and craftsmanship that serve you from practice through performance. An instrument that grows with you and rewards the time you invest.

The MR Series represents Cort’s mission to provide the highest quality traditional instruments with superb workmanship and modern features at an unbeatable value. MR500E is a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, Ovangkol fingerboard. The classic dreadnaught body has a Venetian cutaway for easy high fret access and is equipped with Cort CE304T electronics to deliver the MR’s natural acoustic sound to an amplification system for both live and recording applications.
- Spruce provides an ideal balance between strength and flexibility, hence its overwhelming popularity as the wood of choice for tops of acoustic guitars. Spruce’s versatile sonic character makes it ideal for a variety of musical genres and playing styles.
- Bright yet natural with a strong and warm midrange, the beloved mahogany wood has been a standard for back and sides on premium acoustics for many decades.
- Includes a 3-band EQ for tonal flexibility and a built-in LED tuner for convenience. This high-value EQ system delivers a rich midrange with clear transparent highs.
- The exclusive scooped surface bridge from Cort enhances sustain with greater string angle from the saddle to the body while reducing tension on the strings across the neck were less finger fatigue and improved playability.
- Not only does the open pore finish enhance the resonance of the woods but it also reduces the weight of the guitar for improved playability. This model’s natural and brown finishes feature gloss top for high-end vintage look and feel.
