Description
The Chord CAL62-BK is a traditionally styled electric guitar with a single cutaway and a solid slab body. The body is made from basswood and bolted to a maple neck, with a choice of HPL rosewood or maple for the fingerboard. It carries a full gloss finish in black, and all the woods come from sustainable sources. At 3.72kg it sits at a comfortable playing weight, and the 650mm scale length gives it a familiar feel for anyone used to a classic single cutaway shape.
Two single coil pickups run through a straightforward control layout: one master volume, one tone, and a 3-way lever selector switch (sometimes called a pickup selector). This setup covers a lot of ground, from clean country twang through to brash rock tones, so you can move between styles without swapping instruments. The chrome plate bridge and 6-a-side chrome closed geared tuning machine heads keep tuning stable and setup simple, which matters when you are gigging or practising for long stretches.
The neck holds 22 medium frets with a 42mm nut width, giving a manageable reach across the fretboard for most hand sizes. Overall the guitar measures 330 x 1000 x 65mm, so it fits standard cases and stands without fuss. This is a practical, honest instrument for players who want a reliable single cutaway without paying over the odds. Whether you are starting out or adding a versatile second guitar to your setup, the CAL62-BK gives you dependable playability and a broad tonal range in one package.
