@@silvansky I buy all my guitars both new and used with the idea that if needed I will spend another $200.00 USD to change or repair whatever is needed. I sometimes get lucky at find a perfect guitar. I got an old Ibanez Jet King painted silver sparkle. When Ibanez first started they were really Guyatone guitars with Ibanez put on the headstock. It looks very, very 50's so most guys never tried it out. It has chrome PU covers that make it look like the original but under them are P90's. These PU's thru my Plexi can remove the backwall of a club. lol It is not your granddads surf guitar, lol. So one can never assume anything about a guitar until you play it.

@Ten80pete Год назад

You know, I just had my tastes unexpectedly change over the past month, and your comment summarizes it perfectly. I saw a Tagima Stella DW for sale last week, and I decided to buy it... then today I found a Cort X700 Duality for sale, sub $600 and went for it. I'm a sucker for well made guitars and as much as I'd like to have an Ernie Ball JP Majesty, a Suhr, an ESP Horizon or Javier Reyes 6-string (can you tell I'm a sucker for the high horns?) I will never be able to justify spending that much on one guitar. Maybe on one amp, but not when my favorite guitar so far is a Peavey EXP I got for $400.

@Madchris8828 3 года назад

Tip for those out there wanting floating Trems. If your guitars springs are providing too much resistance for it to float, buy springs of lower quality and put them in the back instead. Voila! Floating trem. If you want to make it float better too, sometimes thicker strings like 10s provide higher resistance and help it float better, at the potential sacrifice of harder playing for newer players or those not used to playing with thicker strings

@vorpalblades 3 года назад

Or, just set the trem springs properly.

@Madchris8828 3 года назад

@@vorpalblades the springs that came with my guitar put too much tension the block to allow it to float. How did you do it then?

John Mitchell from the bands “It Bites, Arena, Frost*, Kino, A, The Urbane and Lonely Robot” primarily uses Cort Guitars - white and black G254s on stage, and for recording, a tobacco G210 and a blue/black G290. He also plays an Alvarez Yairi acoustic guitar in the studio, and a PRS Classic. Mitchell's rack set-up consists of a Marshall JMP1 Preamp with effects being produced by a vintage Korg A3 effects unit. This signal is then amplified by a Marshall Valvestate 80/80 power amp to a 4x12 Marshall cab. So if there good enough for John Mitchell there good enough for me.

@paulhudson2293 3 года назад

I'm starting to think that an HSS configuration strat might be the best of both worlds for guitars. Decent single coil warmth from the neck position, but sufficient beef from the bridge humbucker. Cort do make great guitars. I've got a Mansons Guitar Matt Bellamy Signature and that's a lovely instrument made with Cort. The neck feels especially lovely. The quality of the electronics are going to be reflected in the cost I'm sure. If you want a guitar at a that low price point, then compromises have to come somewhere, and the person that's in the market for that sort of guitar probably doesn't care too much about lower end electronics.

Recently bought a Cort G200DX-NAT through Guitar Center, brand new in a box. The neck joint had a 1.5 mm gap due to shavings and sawdust. Reluctantly took off the neck, cleaned out the pocket, lightly sanded for a better fit & fixed it. How it passed QC like that blows my mind. Anyway, it was under $300, so it's my hot-rod-able Stratocaster-style solid body guitar. Better pickups are planned for it. With a swamp ash body & hard maple neck, it's a beauty to look at & plays quite well.

I have initially replaced mini Alpha pots on my Cort CR250 with CTS pots but recently switched back. One of CTS pots became noisy/cracky and other one had different feel when rotating.
