Meet the Cort G290FATIIAVB, the 6-string solid-body electric guitar designed for players who crave versatility, refined detail, and a stage-ready vibe. Built on the celebrated G290 FAT platform, this Antique Violin Burst model elevates the formula with a roasted maple neck and fretboard, a visually striking flame maple top on an Alder body, and a meticulously designed electronics package that covers everything from clean, shimmering tones to saturated, high-gain crunch.

• Ergo-V neck profile gives a comfortable, natural grip across the fretboard for long playing sessions
• Cort staggered locking tuners ensure solid tuning stability and quick string changes

The G290 FAT II AVB represents Cort’s commitment to making a great guitar even greater. Along with the upgraded roasted neck and fretboard and the expanded color option, the model retains the original, highly versatile tone core—articulate VTH-77 pickups paired with a flexible wiring system, an ergonomic neck design, and exceptional build quality. This combination delivers a wide dynamic range that responds to your touch, making it an ideal companion for players who switch between sparkling cleans, punchy blues, and modern high-gain riffs without swapping instruments.

Who is this guitar for? It’s a strong fit for players who value playability as much as tone—live performers who demand reliable tuning stability, studio players who need a responsive instrument for rhythm and lead work, and collectors who appreciate a premium finish with practical upgrades. If you want a guitar that handles jazz-clean, pop-rock bite, and heavy crunch with equal ease, the Cort G290FATIIAVB is built to rise to the challenge.

Why choose this over other options? You get the hallmark G290 FAT temperament—now enhanced with roasted maple for a more stable neck and warmer harmonics, a luminous finish that catches the eye, and tactile aids like luminlay dots and a precision nut. The combination of a flamed maple top, a refined neck profile, and the sophisticated electronics setup means you won’t have to compromise between clarity in the highs and tightness in the lows. It’s a balanced instrument that thrives in real-world playing scenarios, from quiet studio tracks to raucous stage performances.

Tips for getting the most out of yours
- Start with the compund radius set low in the first few frets to find your comfort zone for chords, then explore higher frets for expressive bends.
- Experiment with the wiring options to quickly switch between clean, overdriven, and heavy tones without altering your playing feel.
- Use the luminlay dots on dark stages to navigate the fretboard without looking away from your amp or pedals.
