As Cort’s homage to the great vintage acoustic guitars, the Earth Series represents the look, sound, feel and playability of those fine instruments with uncompromising quality and excellent value. Ideal for both flatpicking and fingerstyle players, Earth100 features time-tested classic materials like solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and sides.
The Earth Series is the oldest and most traditional dreadnought acoustic based on more than 50 years of craftsmanship. The Earth boasts a huge warm tone that is well defined across the complete spectrum of sound and beyond.
The solid Sitka spruce top will improve it's tone as it matures.
SOLID SITKA 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.
GENUINE BONE NUT & SADDLE
Crafted out of water buffalo bone for the most natural and transparent transfer of string vibrational energy into the body and neck.
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.
SONICALLY ENHANCED UV FINISH
The high-tech finish is strong and resistant to scratches while being lightweight to improve the natural acoustic resonance of the body for a full-bodied and rich tone.

This instrument delivers outstanding cost performance with remarkable playability and tone. The C series are full size instruments with a level of quality only Yamaha can deliver.
Yamaha is among the most successful brands in the segment of nylon-stringers and the C-45 is one of it's most popular models.

IMMACULATE condition SEE PICS!
Very, very, very well looked after...
*FRESH NEW set of strings supplied & fitted:
Ernie Ball Ernesto Palla Clear and Silver
Nylon Tie-on type Medium tension
Medium low action setup
This is a vintage instrument from the late 1980s.
A few decades of aging has opened up this guitar's tone phenomenally. There's a certain level of maturity in the tone that only comes after many years of ageing of the solid spruce top. SOUNDS Angelic! Money can't buy this tone new...
SOUNDS truly FANTASTIC!
The C45 is a higher-end model compared to the C40 and C40M, the main distinguishing factor is that the C45 has a solid spruce top, whereas the C40 and C40M have laminated tops. This gives the C45 a more superior tone, that will also keep improving with age.
