    - Alder body
    - 3 pieces maple set neck, 22 frets
    - Ebony fingerboard, active EMG humbuckers 2 and 81 EMG60
    - A volume, a tone
    - 3-position selector
    - TonePros bridge with strings through the body.
    - Dark satin black hardware
    - Finish: Satin black metal.

    UTILIZATION

    Varnished handle very nice and not too thick. The ebony fingerboard is smooth and allows a quick game on the handle.
    This is a LP type guitar seen some fairly mild EPIPHONE LP that I've experienced. Its shape can play standing or sitting because it is well balanced.
    Access to the treble is good but not great when you want to go on the low E string at the 22nd fret.

    SOUNDS

    The two EMG 60 and 81 can have a clean sound not bad at all but this guitar is made for metal that spot so it's especially disto it will show its potential. Sharp and powerful rhythmic solo, here is what you expect with this CORT EVL Z6.
    I use it with a transistor amp Randall KH75 I couple with a BLACKSTAR HT DUAL pedal and it allows me to shape the sound I want.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use this guitar for three years now and I do not really get tired and yet I've seen a few pass (just see my old stuff ...)
    The only thing that can tire, it may be good but its Gothic Deco after three years it does not bother me at all.
    If I had to redo this Chois it would without hesitation, shame that CORT has more in this Z6 its catalog ...

    Stealth black

    Cort EVL-Z6Published on 11/24/11 at 22:11
    The Cort EVL Z6 guitar is a Korean made guitar that is made for sound and quality. It comes in a stealth black design and looks very clean. The sound of it is very clean as well. A good friend of mine has this guitar so I have a chance to play around with it from time to time. Only thing that I really didn’t like about the guitar was the feel of it. It just didn’t feel like anything I was use to like the Les Pauls, Gibson’s, or any other brand. I am not sure if it’s the fact that Korea used a different material or not. But the sound isn’t affected at all by the feel.

But the sound isn’t affected at all by the feel.

    UTILIZATION

    This guitar can play anything from country to rock to blues. I have even been playing classical on the thing and it sounds great. The sustain is awesome. I love the 60's style neck. I have smaller hands and can play this neck very well. The coil tapping kind of gives you the best of both worlds, either single or double coil and when you start to mix the 2 you can get some awesome combination.

    SOUNDS

    You can and will get a very nice sound with this guitar pretty easy. All of the frets are easy to reach without any problems.


    OVERALL OPINION

    With an amazing sound this guitar can go toe toe with almost any other guitar in its price range. The down side for me is the feel. If it doesn’t feel right to me than I wont purchase it. Even though a friend of mine owns it, I wouldn’t go out and purchase it anyways. But without that Gibson feel, I just cant get too funky with it. But I love the all black stealth look. Not too many guitars go with that look any more, it was a faze a few years back but not anymore.

    Beautiful violin Horn, everything said above does.
    Two double EMG 60/81 active
    22 frets.
    Two volume (by a microphone) and a Tone and a 3 position selector (Neck pickup, both pickups, bridge pickup)

    UTILIZATION

    I use it for a lot of things actually biensur TRSA is comfortable in the big metal rhythm, but no one without trying it can be said is only for that!
    I t enjoyable indeed surprised by the neck pickup with its very gentle and perfect for quiet songs ... (Edit one year later: small BMOL distos often on too strong ...)
    So actually quite versatile despite the two EMG, trs happy about that.

    So actually quite versatile despite the two EMG, trs happy about that.
    Otherwise the guitar in it even is not too heavy (Edit one year later: in fact it is standard.) And handle well done, good accsa all keys, except perhaps on the 21 22 the strings ... (Edit one year later: in fact, section 22, must not count on it.)

    SOUNDS

    I play with a Vox Valvetronix 50 watt amp, and trs There's really a wide range of effort with all the microphones with the amp, the choice of the switch position changes greatly sounds , crystalline bridge pickup, round and soft neck pickup ... What's more, both at the same time make a mixture that suits me well trs.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I tried many guitars before I stop on this one for its incredible comfort and the sound that perfectly matches what I was looking for.
    I got a 650 euro which is less than what I intended to, so I'm rather happy with the cot l.
    I thought the beginners get tired of a particular design trs based pentacles and crosses but eventually it goes well and trs ca gives him a small cot dark not found on any guitar ... (Edit a year later: the tired look a little contrary to what I thought at beginners)
    Also in the look, the head has specially mentioned that I love, although this is not the opinion of all ...

    I do it again without hsiter choice. (Edit One year later I sold it to an Ibanez Prestige, MDIT:))

    It's made in Korea.
    - 22 frets
    - Handle: emg60 / bridge (Tone-Pro) emg81. So both active
    - Fixed bridge
    - 2 volumes + 1 tone + 3 position toggle
    - Set neck, a little broad, but very comfortable

    The guitar is beautiful and the varnish mate is the most beautiful effect. The ebony fingerboard is sumptuous. Only regret the way embedded frankly, it does nothing. I would even say that it spoils the beauty of a little key. For this and only this, I put 8.

    UTILIZATION

    The handle, despite the fact it is a bit wide, is very nice and the grip is immediate. In fact, it falls naturally in the hand. The varnish used is very soft and can quickly slipped. A special mention of the stop located at the junction of the head and avoiding to unscrew! Well done!
    Access to the top is not sharp ... same time, given the config of the beast is done more for the solo riffs!
    The weight is not too bulky and the body is nice.
    In terms of sound, are perfectly emg their job! Especially the 81 with a potato! Ends for me and I labored saturated riffs very sharp and precise.

    Brief aside on the operating principle of a micro active. I read somewhere (I think it is on AF), the fact that a microphone is active did not change the sound and it was just a preamp to eliminate parasites. Ben for removing the battery and played in the state, I can assure you that the pickups do not sound at all in the same way after they are active or passive config! In passive saturation a bit but it is flat and dull. As soon as I put the battery ... wow! huge gain and presence unbelievable!

    In short, very typical metal guitar, even if the emg60 allows excursions into other worlds (rock, blues, etc.).. Excellent build quality and very good sound with awesome sustain.

    SOUNDS

    This model is typed metal, but if, as stated above, the emg 60 can do something else.

    I play in home studio setup, plugged directly into Pocket POD. For clean sounds, it's not really that, and besides, I still do not know what is the tone knob lol. For very thick riffs and slicing is royal!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I bought it today and I know already now that I made the right choice. And to think I had gone on a Z4 first. Fortunately for me, I went to the store where e = was out! So I "pulled" on the Z6!

    What I like most? Everything! The lutterie, wood species used, microphones, finish, weight, balance, look (except the key ...) and the price, Ramna all these qualities, is very much justified!

    With experience, this choice I would do without hesitation!

    The fittings, all of the materials inspires great confidence, is strictly montrien is wrong, no trace of glue, it's all good

    SOUNDS

    His question, the microphones are powerful and specific on GENERALLY (EMG active forces) but on a bandit 112 in aa big trend disto be pretty rough but is the amp, no the guitar

    OVERALL OPINION

    I did that today but since I feel that I will spend quality time with, I do not regret my purchase After a few hours of use and I do not think a change some years before es, it's safe to assume that I advise those who want a well made guitar that sounds hard, but for anything specific on this fact now is that I do sr ' not really use it to play the BB King or Dire Straits

    SOUNDS

    Personally-I play a bit of everything, a lot of mtal but also blues regae a little funk and it goes right across it clear that its design and microphones at the prdestinne mtal but ca happening everywhere: the neck pickup sounds very fat and round for super clean and 81, ben 81 ... what the REFERENCES at distortion. The wood also rson very well, I tried other guitars with emg 81 and coming out a lot less.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had some serious pressure in December 2006 and I'm glad I was a beginner at lag arkanne AF200 but hey dattente 6 months old and more colors (like af2000 now) I di c ' dc is dead so, I bought the one and when I branch: AC pfiooouuuu décoiffer, the emg active ca sends big lol. I would repoche: no split ... and I think that's all! Since I bought the lag of OCCAZ 'and I always find it's a guitar exelente invoice at the accuracy of rsonnance the handle of the reliability a must for the range prices.
    Anyway really happy for those who like the same design when particumier do not hesitate!
