Production of the BECK-ALTO began in 1999 and ended in 2002.

Hiram Bullock was not only fusion pioneer but also a legendary blues player, who worked with David Sanborn, Jaco Pastorious, Billy Joel, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Eric Clapton, Marcus Miller amongst others. This true legend has designed his first signature model with Cort the HBS model. Hiram was born in Japan but chose to go with a Korean firm for his strat styled signature model.

The seminal fusion pioneer, Larry Coryell, has influenced a generation of guitarists and played with legends such as John McLaughlin, Miles Davis and Jimi Hendrix. This true pioneer has designed the LCS-1 model in conjunction with Cort. It is a hollow bodied jazz guitar with single cutaway and Larry Coryell signature imprint inlay.

The Cort Larry Coryell Signature LCS-2 is basically a more affordable version of LCS-1. It has maple back and sides and Duncan designed pickups.

Matt "Guitar" Murphy of Blues Brothers fame helped design the Cort MGM-1 model. Matt "Guitar" Murphy has been a legend in the Blues community since his early days with James Cotton right up to his pivotal role as a member of the Blues Brothers Band. Matt worked with Cort on this dual humbucker signature model - which has a hint of PRS in the body shape

The first NEIL ZAZA NZS-1 was produced by CORT in 2005.

Introduced in 2005, the Cort Pagelli PAG-1 has a beautiful single cutaway body shape. The body wood is mahogany topped with flame maple. The gloss finished mahogany set neck has a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard. The chrome plated hardware is top notch: TonePros licensed bridge, Cort CT1 tailpiece and three per side tuners. The pickups are two Mighty Mite humbuckers controlled by one volume and one tone control with a three-way selector switch. The finish options for the PAG-1 are light chocolate sunburst or transparent charcoal gray.

The Cort Pagelli II (PAG-II), introduced in 2007, is a grungier vesion of the first Pagelli (PAG-I) model. It has the same beautiful single cutaway body shape (Les Paul X Iceman). The body wood is mahogany, but without the maple top of the PAG-I model. The maple set neck has a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard. It has black or rusty finished hardware: wraparound combined bridge/tailpiece and three per side tuners. The pickups are two Powersound humbuckers controlled by one volume and one tone control with a three-way selector switch. The finish options for the PAG-I1 are black or rusty brown.
