Looks very good, has a wide range of sound, I like how the split coil is connected, excellent spec and feels in the hand when I play. I really enjoy playing on this guitar. Awesome job Cort !
Cort have always made playable, well built guitars, sometimes not the most inspiring to look at. If you're struggling for funds then a G250 is a great place to start, 2 point Gotoh-esque trem with a chunky block, satin chrome hardware, very playable. I once had an early G290 in flame green maple, it had Sperzel tuners and active EMG pups...why did i sell it? So with these you can see a little budget trimming but nothing too desperate, EMG pups are like Marmite and the Sperzels weren't locking. BTW i've got a FAT II in blue on it's way :)
@@micaelsilva1332 G290 has traditional nickel silver frets. The only Cort G series guitar with stainless steel frets is the G300 Pro. I wish Cort would upgrade the G290 with stainless steel frets. They currently don't offer any 22-fret guitars with stainless steel frets.
I am begging you to make this in a hardtail version. I cannot stand the floating tremolo, and I do not want to have to block and deck to use the guitar. Quite literally, every other spec on this and the G300 Pro are exactly what I want, but the bridge is an absolute deal breaker.
I was disappointed with Cort. I have a 2016 280 GDX, the pickups sound nasal, and the finishes are rough. This hasn’t improved at all since then. The worst part is that there is no customer service at Cort. They don’t respond to any of their emails, including those sent to the management. They are manufacturers, but they don’t have the proper services to handle sales.
