Description

Cort built the Jade Classic as part of its Jade series, positioning it as a smaller-body acoustic-electric aimed at players seeking a departure from conventional styling. The Pastel Yellow Open Pore finish was one of three colours introduced alongside Pastel Pink and Sky Blue Open Pore, each paired with pearloid appointments to reference a vintage rock and roll aesthetic.

The body is constructed entirely from mahogany — top, back, and sides — joined to a mahogany neck via a dovetail neck joint. A Venetian cutaway provides upper-fret access across the 20-fret laurel fretboard. Scale length runs 24.75" (628mm) with a 42mm nut width. Bracing follows an Advanced X pattern. The laurel bridge and vintage-style machineheads complete the hardware complement, while a pearloid pickguard and matching pearloid headstock treatment carry through the period-inspired visual theme. Onboard electronics are handled by the Cort CE304T system.

Owners requiring setup work, fret maintenance, or parts sourcing for components such as the bridge, nut, or tuners should consult a qualified luthier or guitar technician familiar with acoustic-electric instruments.

From the people who own them

Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.

Put yours on the record.

The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.

What do you know about this one?

Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
