Note: With eBay changing their policy on feedback calculation mine went from better then 99% down to 95% as they apparently are using just the previous 12 month period. Read through my seller feedback and you will see that everyone was very satisfied with guitars from me. I recently recieved a negative feedback, as a buyer, from a fellow who at the time had only 1 eBay feedback. Believe me this guy didn't know what he was doing. Winning his auction and exchanging emails with shipping address etc. then a couple of days after he said he shipped the guitar to me... before I even paid for it and provided a tracking numgber that showed up in the system. Also adding $35 for the cost a cardboard box. Couldn't tell if the guy was for-real or a scammer as he stated in the listing he was an MD and needed to sell his guitars as he was headed to Saudi Arabia to practice medicine for a couple of years. A telephone number he emailed to me gave a recording stating "not in service". Did want the guitar he had listed, but the facts surrounding were so unusual it definitely seemed he was a scammer.

This is a CORT top of the line LE-2 BR CE solid Brazilian Rosewood dreadnought (solid back and sides). Great guitar, very balanced. Good depth and projection. Mastergrade Brazilian with solid Bearclaw Spruce top. One piece mahogany neck. Also it appears Cort has discontinued the Limited Edition series, so these guitars in Brazilian will basically become impossible to acquire due to their rarity.

This one has a cutaway and the Fishman Prefix Premium Blender which has a built in tuner. It was build a year later then other one listed. Also near mint to mint condition. Very Taylorish sound on this. These guitars come with D'Addario EXP 16 lights. I use EJ 16 lights (on the other one and actually I believe this one still has the orginal EXP lights on it). If you been playing guitar for while your probably aware most dreadnoughts have mediums recommended and if you use lights you need to change strings often as lights become unfocused within a relatively short period of time. These LE2's sound fine with lights and you don't need to change strings on these guitars often. They seem to sound better as strings age.

Ebony fretboard and bridge. 43 mm fretboard width at the nut Which is just a hair wider then 1 11/16". German steel frets with little or no fretwear. Bone nut. Bone Saddle and pins.

My understanding is they only build 12 of these, a few with with cutaways and Fishman Blender electronics (this guitar is very rare). This guitar is the highest quality instrument you will get for the money. Beautiful workmanship and inlays. I had one of the Blueridge BR280's - these Cort's BR's are much better. More satisfying tone. Have two of the LE-2 BR's, this one with cutaway and Fishman Premium Blender that blends a microphone inside the body (visible through soundhole) with the undersaddle piezzo. Also has a built in tuner which is very convenient.

The other one without electronics and cutaway is also on eBay now - Click on view sellers other auctions to see that guitar as well as a LE-3 out of Indian Rosewood which is also a top notch guitar. Need to thin down my guitars due to recent move and lack of secure storage, really hate to sell any of these Limited Editions.

PAYMENT: Paypal, Money Order, Certified Bank Check (no personal checks). Paypal/eBay policy require shipping only to confirmed addresses for buyer/seller protection so I will only ship to confirmed addresses with Paypal payment.

Shipping USA $90 by insured Express Mail (less in Hawaii). Very well packed.

INTERNATIONAL: International Buyers EMAIL FIRST for a shipping quote before using BUY IT NOW as there are size restrictions to on shipping from Hawaii to several countries. Email any questions.

INTERNATIONAL PAYMENT: Since I am not sure regarding Paypal or eBay for seller protection on international sales (for USA address confirmation is a requirement but you don't find out about this until after a Paypal Payment is made and you check the buyers information), since Paypal/eBay policy is muddy regarding knowing if a buyer qualifies I can only accept payment via Certified Bank Check or International Money Order for international buyers. However for International Buyers I will offer a discount on the total purchase price. Have shipped guitars to Germany (3), UK (2), Israel (1), Canada (3) and never had any problems, giving and receiving positive feedback.
