DESIGNED AND INSPIRED BY

JEFF BERLIN

“After playing the samebass for so many years

I was not sure that anotherbuilder could develop

something that I would love.As soon as I played the very

first Cort Rithimic bassI was wowed. I could not

believe how perfectlythis bass turned out.

This is an astonishinginstrument that Cort

has built for me.”

Jeff Berlin

Jeff’s basses have always been simple and vintage inspired, but then tweaked to his exact specifcations to make them something special. The Rithimic provides that same balance between vintage, simple and well evolved for today’s playing demands.

“Boasting an alder body adorned with an artistic veneer of spalted mapleand padouk, Cort’s new Rithimic bass is visually striking, yet tasteful.”

MAGAZINE

“Jeff’s setup is as straightforward and direct as his attitude to making music, especially with his signature Rithimic bass from Cort.”

“If you dig Jeff Berlin’s sound, approach, and style of playing, the Rithimic will put you in the ballpark—at least equipment-wise.”

MS On the heels of the mega-successful release of the MBC-1 Matt Bellamy Signature Model that was developed in conjunction with UK’ s Manson Guitars, the new M-Jet and Classic TC models that continue and expand upon the design concepts of hybrid vintage single cutaway electric guitars.

Hugh Manson has been making electric guitars for some of the world’s best known rock & roll superstars, including John Paul Jones from Led Zeppelin and Matt Bellamy from Muse. Cort collaborated with Hugh to create two guitars Classic TC and M-Jet. Both are built on the Manson Guitar Works popular body style platform which takes vintage guitar design further.

200ATVSer ies

Cort Guitars knows that many players who want a new, reasonably priced acoustic prioritize instrument sound quality. In fact, many acoustic guitarists would forgo cosmetic upgrades for an enhanced, vintage tone. Intended to meet those players’ needs, Cort introduces its new 200 ATV (Aged to Vintage) Series of acoustic guitars. Featuring basic designs but all the key enhancements that improve sound quality, guitars in the ATV Series deliver a tone that has previously been missing in new instruments.
