The ideal instrument for beginning GUITARISTS
We asked guitarists what their biggest obstacle was while learning to play. Answers ranged from difficulty learning complex hand mechanics to painful fingertips to overall instrument size, weight, and cost. We took these problems to our builders and design team and challenged them to find a total-guitar solution. There are no shortcuts to success when learning to play guitar, but there are a few things that make the journey a little easier, and we included them all in our new EasyPlay guitars. When you're learning guitar, play smarter, not harder.
The latest addition to Cort’s EasyPlay Collection, the Earth50 has a smaller body size, shortened scale and light-gauge coated strings to help players on their journey. Earth50 is specially designed for novices, but with pro-level features and quality materials for an authentic playing experience.
7/8 dreadnought body & 628mm(24.75”) Scale
The smaller body size and shorter scale length make the guitar sit more comfortably against your body and facilitates easier playing for personal physiques that are smaller like those of female players and children.
Solid Spruce top
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.
Mahogany back & sides
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.
Scooped bridge
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.
Light gauge coated string
The lighter gauge strings make chording and single-note playing easier on your fingertips and hands – especially for beginners and intermediate young players whose hands haven’t developed fully. The coated strings would resist dirt and sweat more effectively, keeping the strings feeling and sounding fresh for extended playing sessions.
