Cort built the LCJ-OP as part of the Little CJ Series, positioning it as a three-quarter-scale jumbo acoustic designed for players who require a more compact instrument without sacrificing the core tonal and playability qualities of a full-size guitar. The Open Pore finish designation indicates the surface treatment applied to the body.
Construction centres on a solid Sitka Spruce top braced with Advanced X-Bracing, paired with African Mahogany (Okoume) back and sides featuring an arched back profile. The neck is Mahogany (Palaquium), joined to the body via a dovetail neck joint, and carries an Ovangkol fretboard with 20 frets over a 597mm (23.5") scale length. Nut width is 43mm (1 11/16"). Hardware includes Vintage Open Gear tuners, an Ovangkol bridge, and a multiple rosette. Electronics are handled by a Fishman® Presys II system, and the guitar shipped strung with D'Addario® EXP16 strings. The neck profile is described as V-shape in the original product documentation. Binding is black with white purfling.
Owners sourcing replacement parts — including saddles, nuts, bridge pins, or tuner buttons compatible with Vintage Open Gear machines — should consult a qualified luthier or guitar technician, who can verify fit against the instrument's specific dimensions before installation.
STRAIGHT TALK
What Stands Out
Keep In Mind
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.
Owner photos
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.
