Acoustic Guitar Magazine | 8 years ago
The Cort Frank Gambale signature model is a collaboration between the guitar company and the artist, who oversaw almost every detail of this guitar. Gambale, a jazz-fusion shredder who often records and performs acoustically, wanted an acoustic that played like an electric, and he has put his personal stamp on the Luxe. For example, some of the design features are whimsical—like the Jetsons-style swoop and the trio of crystals on the headstock, as well as the horizontal inlay on the fretboard. But the Luxe also sports such sophisticated features as an Adirondack spruce top, Australian blackwood back and sides (a nod to Gambale’s Australian home), a custom wood rosette, and an L.R. Baggs EAS-VTC EQ pickup system.
