Cort Mirage M500 Electric Guitar, Wine Red - Used
The Cort Mirage series earned a loyal following as an honest, well-built PRS-style double cutaway at a fraction of the price — mahogany body with carved top, set mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, dual humbuckers, and a tune-o-matic bridge with stop tailpiece. Comfortable, resonant, and a genuine player's guitar. The M500 is the unbound version of the M600 and represents a solid value in the used market for anyone who wants that carved-top double-cut feel without spending big.
This one plays pretty well despite its road miles — it's a well-loved instrument with honest wear throughout. Cosmetically it shows plentiful smaller dents, dings, and scratches consistent with regular play. The headstock has a crack along the B and high E tuner area and a chunk missing from the top of the headstock — shown clearly in photos. Nothing affecting playability or structural integrity of the neck joint, but buyers should review the photos carefully. No case included.
Condition is Good.
