CORT JC 65CORT made the JC 65 electric guitar between 1997 and 1998. It had a double cutaway agathis body - shaped a little like a Fender Jaguar. What set the JC models apart from the other Cort Performer Series models was their Bigsby style JC Tremolo tailpieces. The JC 65 had stratocaster style pickup configuration and controls. Another model - the JC-67 was available with two soapbar pickups and pink or silver sparkle finish. | |
CORT JC 67CORT manufactured the JC 67 between 1998 and 1999. The Cort JC 67 was like the JC 65 model but had pink sparkle or silver sparkle finish and had two soap bar pickups. I can't get a front view photo of a JC-67 so I had to mock up the picture above using a JC-65. | |
