As I said before, played this and it felt buzzy - neck looked v. straight though, I think the setup may have just been poor. Never knew the FR was an official though, I'd have assumed it was just a licensed? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I guess it is versatile with those HSH pickups. You can change the pickups maybe something like a SD JB&59 classic combo and some fender in the middle and you got yourself a great axe in many years to come. ROck on!

Feb 12 2008, 05:51 PM	GMC:er Posts: 4 Joined: 12-February 08	Totally agree with you Matt. Im playing my Cort X-6 for 1 year now and im still impressed with its performance. Some people told me to buy a more expensive guitar but i dont want to. My Cort gives me al the pleasure and different styles i need. Especially semi acoustic and full throttle distortion on the humbuckers. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I think the H S H gives a lot of options, and becasuse the possibility to make the humbuckers singlecoils makes even more posibilities. One thing, isn't the plug in the way? It's at your bridge, I can imagine you hit it when palmmuting or something like that. Overall looks very neat and I like the pickups!! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
