CORT manufactured the S2500M between 1996 and 1998. It was the maple bodied version of the Cort S2500. The S2500M model featured a light weight soft maple body available in Black and Amber Stain. The neck was constructed of hard rock maple with a rosewood fretboard and offset abalone dots. The scale length was 25.5" with a specially designed truss rod to strengthen the neck allowing a thinner profile. The Wilkinson VS50K with a SK5 hardness bridge plate was used along with a custom radius roller nut. The MightyMite CTK Series matched pickups (Single, Single, Humbucker) were direct mounted into the body without pickup rings.

CORT S2500M reviewed by Stefaan
Stefaan
excellent playability, thin arm, warm tone. I own this instrument for 25 years now and it served me more than well even in gigs. The rollers at the nut are a fine detail what I havn't seen in other guitars. Definitly value for money.

Alex.
Balanced tone, very good definition and creamy bass not to be believed. Very good instrument.
