DESCRIPTION

Our Frank Gambale Signature model, the Luxe, receives an update on the electronics and now features Fishman® Flex Blend. We carefully tested various pickup and preamp options with Frank and finally decided on Fishman® Flex Blend, which Frank described it as “powerful and rich with crystal clear tones!” The beautiful design and specs of LUXE remain the same that was built meticulously based on ideas that emerged from Frank’s incredible career as one of the best guitarists in the world, which truly makes this guitar unique!

cort frank gambale luxe ii feature 1 concert body shape

Concert Body Shape

cort frank gambale luxe ii feature 2 spruce top

Solid Adirondack Spruce Top

Stronger and denser than Sitka spruce, the Adirondack spruce is characterized by broad dynamics as well as articulation and smoothness at high volume. The elastic tactile response suits both aggressive strumming and precise flatpicking. Adirondack spruce bracing further sets apart the unique sound and response of this exceptional wood. Famously used on the sought-after vintage Martin dreadnaughts of the 1930’s, the difficult-to- source Adirondack spruce is the crowning feature of this model at a most reasonable price.

cort frank gambale luxe ii feature 3 flamed blackwood

Flamed Blackwood Back & Sides

Blackwood is like a combination of the low-mids of mahogany, the brightness of maple and the rich overtones of rosewood. This versatility makes blackwood stand out for both fingerstyle playing or strumming as well as being a perfect match for the spruce top.

cort frank gambale luxe ii feature 5 ebony bridge

Ebony Fingerboard & Bridge

A very strong and dense wood, ebony provides a tight and coherent low-end with enhanced mids. The jet-black imparts class and a luxurious look.

cort frank gambale luxe ii feature 6 art deco

Art Deco Styled Design

Thanks to Frank Gambale's dedication on designing of the guitar, the instrument designed based on modern Art Deco influence.

cort frank gambale luxe ii feature 7 nut

Graph Tech® Black TUSQ Nut & Saddle

Preferred by many guitar makers and players for rich tone and sustain, the TUSQ is an advanced polymer that's formed under high heat and pressure for uniform density. It's designed to transfer string energy more efficiently, and to make guitars come alive with enhanced harmonics, volume and sustain.
