New Acoustic Guitar Day – Cort AS E4

Look what Santa brought to me this year 🙂 It’s a Cort AS E4 dreadnought guitar, my very first acoustic. It’s all-solid construction with spurce top, mahogany back and sides and mahogany neck. It seems very well built. Attention to detail is high, 8-piece binding around the body, maple binding on the neck. Most importantly, it sounds very clear and balanced. All I need to do is learn to play it 🙂 More detailed review will come, stay tuned…
