Dang, Cort!

[Masta' C]

Man, I know Cort falls under the radar for most of us (and sometimes for good reason), but I just happened across their KX700 Evertune model and I don't think there's a better-spec'd guitar out there for the ~$1K price these can be found for!

5-piece roasted maple and walnut neck, ebony fretboard, stainless frets, deep-contour sandblasted ash top with satin black "open pore" finish, Evertune bridge, Seymour Duncan pickups, locking tuners, Luminlay side inlays...I mean, yeesh! That's a LOT of features for the price.

Just sayin'...

Is that the first production guitar with Sentient and Nazgul?

I thought Schecter had some previously, but maybe not?

Impressive.

I don't know about you, but I can't hear pictures.

I can’t hear pictures either but you can have a pretty good idea of how a guitar sounds based on specs.

Also, if you scroll on the page Masta linked on top there are videos. Those I generally can hear

I gotta say, I love the Luminlay side inlays. Once you use them, you want to convert every guitar to them.

I... can't hear links either.

Ha ha ha! :18:

I assume you can "click" them, though...may the force (of your button clicking finger) be with you!

So what's the deal with that crazy bridge?

/pokes it with a 10 feet pole

It makes sure that you can divebomb and stay in tune 100% of no time at all.

Ditto!

I love the two Corts I've had. Still have one. That axe is sweet.

You can basically set it up in a way that no string movement will change the pitch. Insanely useful when tracking rhythms. You can also set it to work as a regular hardtail. Currently I set mine so that it ignores minor movement of the string so it keeps the pitch/intonation despite the heaviest of right hand work, but you can do bends as if normal. Oh and you can do these individually for each string!

That’s a whole lot of value.
