Striking pale moon ebony top
The Cort KX507MS Pale Moon is visually defined by its exotic Pale Moon Ebony top, which offers a truly one-of-a-kind aesthetic. With dramatic streaks of black and light figuring running across the grain, this timber sets it apart from more conventional guitars and gives each model a unique look. Set against the matte Natural Black Burst finish and open-pore body, the top blends boutique visual flair with modern design. More than just eye candy, the Pale Moon Ebony also adds a subtle brightness and definition to the overall tone, balancing well with the warmth of the mahogany body beneath it. This finish ensures you stand out both on stage and in the studio.
Extended-range multi-scale design
Designed with advanced performance in mind, the KX507MS features a multi-scale layout with a 25.5" to 27" fan. This approach enhances intonation and playability across all seven strings, particularly benefiting the low B, which stays tight and punchy thanks to the longer scale length. The angled frets provide a more natural ergonomic feel, especially when fretting complex chords or shifting positions across the fretboard. Extended-range players looking for reliable precision and tonal clarity will find the multi-scale design delivers consistent response and comfort across the board.
Fishman Fluence modern humbuckers
At the heart of the KX507MS’s tone are a pair of Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers, renowned for their clarity, power, and versatility. Unlike traditional pickups, the Fluence design uses a multi-voice system and active electronics to eliminate unwanted noise and hum, while still delivering a huge tonal range. With push/pull controls, you can seamlessly switch between voices — from aggressive high-gain punch to glassy clean tones — or engage coil-splitting for more single-coil-like dynamics. These pickups handle the demands of modern metal and technical styles with articulate tone and effortless switching.
Precision-focused hardware
The hardware on the KX507MS is engineered for rock-solid tuning and precise articulation. Each string features an individual hardtail bridge unit, which enhances string separation, improves intonation accuracy, and boosts sustain. Combined with Cort’s own locking tuners and a two-way truss rod with a spoke-nut adjustment, this guitar stays stable during aggressive playing and frequent tuning shifts. The Macassar ebony fingerboard adds smoothness under your fingers, while the stainless-steel jumbo frets ensure long-term durability and clean note definition. From top to bottom, the KX507MS is designed to handle technically demanding performances with total confidence.
