All user reviews for the Cort SFX10

Played with various rock bands during the late 70's and early 80's, then went inactive for a while, then got back into it a couple of years ago. I used both electric and acoustic guitars.

At first, I was looking to buy a low end Taylor, but came across this model at Good Guys Music in Honolulu. I was impressed with this guitar and considered buying it at their retail price, but came across a used one on Ebay and picked it up for $150.00. It was in near mint condition.

Very well made. Finish is flawless and beautiful. Action is impressive and plays better than a $800 Ibanez I previously had. Unplugged, it sounds very good for a semi-thin body acoustic, crispy with more low end than I expected. No problems with intonation. At this point, I can't say much about the Fishman pickup. I haven't put it through various types of amps and PA's yet. So far, it sounds well balanced when plugged in.

For the retail price of these guitars, I can't think of any dislikes. An ebony fret board would be nice, but that would raise the price greatly.

Construction seems sturdy and quality is better than I expected.

Overall, even at the MSRP of 795.00, this guitar is a good value and I would recommend these guitars to my friends.

- Access in acute (dernires freight) is it easy?

With its pan shot is a breeze!

- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?

It is a small size, lightweight and easy to handle ... great for traveling, playing without connecting any garden dansle the Bard! It starts in a corner and we play!

- Gets it easy to sound good? ...

The pramp is very complete and powerful! When you see the guitar was a fear of his size ... but when the branch, the ... she bluffing everyone! In addition it is capable of much variation in its ... frankly I still discovering every day (I actually just lcher the sg for her, say!)

Oh yes ... It gets better every day ... it is original ... beautiful ... discrte ... we do not see every day in the hands of others ... we take the path of a pretty unique guitar!

And those who fear the Asian manufacturing can be reassured ... Cort is a level that few other manufacturers come get all national together ... even among Rican!

Manufacturing Corenne high quality. Folk Guitar Jumbo shape. Natural Color or BBB (Bright Blue Burst). A prampli fishman ... I bought it in blue, looks great!
I put 9 because the small Intgr tuner is not so convenient as a. To the precision, it is necessary all the same a true tuner, but ... adpanne always

UTILIZATION

The neck is super enjoyable, nothing wrong.
The pan shot really makes Access in acute, I think I do not buy a guitar without a cutaway.

SOUNDS

Then we attack the best of faade bte. This is a guitar that was in the belly. No need to scratch like a pig to the sound. I bought an Electro Acoustics in order to amplify it, but I only use my amps rarely trs. The sound is really gnial, and very versatile. For the price range, it is believed RVer.
The mic pre amp and are really excellent quality. The rglages are multiple, and SETTING THE shine is really very simpa.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for almost a year, and I did not complain. Is a quality guitar for a price dfiant any competition. I test many models in the range 300/700, and it was one of the best. I bought it brand new 430 with bag and set of string +. Sincrement, I believe that quality level relative prices, there is nothing wrong. Is also what made me a little sad is to pay so little like a guitar, thinking of Coren he did, but when I bought it I did not know she was making Coren.
Sincrement is the best guitar in its price range. I think I would do the purchase.
Change: I prciser this guitar had an unfortunate tendency to sound false bottom round, but I rectified quite easily in the saddle ponant lightweight, voila!

Made in Korea by Cort.
Table and rosewood fingerboard
Ebony Easel
Mother of pearl inlay .. very nice indeed.
As "slim", a mixture of a jumbo 3 / 4 deep .. not bad.
For the preamp / tuner .. honors for the preamp. The tuner is accurate but Myennes enough and so convenient.
The photo shows the color flame when it is really very blue see a little blue-green very nice.

UTILIZATION

The neck is quite thin and oval, easy for small hands like me.
The cutaway helps get high enough and the notes are just above the same aus 12 th.
Ergo excelente.
She has very good qualities except in the lower branch but if there is really across the spectrum nickel and Fishman preamp is for something.

SOUNDS

I do the picking, Polystyle, jazz. It is a folk Paut so we do everything with. But overall for what is required to folk, she can do. Should not love the big games.
The sounds are rather good in the treble but tend to choke in the bass, this is probably due to the shape of the body which is a 3 / 4. And shape has nothing to do with dreadnough.
The harmonic nickel out, I tried several types of strings on it and the elixir out pretty good but the Dean Markley even better (after issue of taste).

OVERALL OPINION

I for almost two years.
I love the iridescent blue of the back (it is a BBB) of the overlays is a very beautiful guitar (must love looking at life in blue).
The fact that it's blue "spoil" the view of the excellent rosewood which is below.
It is a massive and it gets better with time.
I'm really happy.
For a mid-range scratches I find it excellent.
I fell in love the first time I saw her on the web.
And I do it again the same nonsense stride

Electro-acoustic guitar to cut pan-Korean spruce top with a beautiful mass with tight seams, credit Maple Pomel, a maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, the mechanical oil bath black.
The shape of the guitar is a little bastard, it draws on the large auditorium with a curved back style 1 / 2 box jazzyfiante ...
For electronics, we are dealing with a Fishman Prefix preamp over T (bass, parametric mid, treble, brilliance, notch, phase, volume and tuner), the microphone is a piezo Matrix. I would have preferred the version above, which combines electronics with micro piezo drum, but ...
No gig bag or flight ...

UTILIZATION

The grip is immediately enjoyable, it is light as a feather, again with the strap attaches to the heel, no need to take the lead strap. The guitar is really well balanced.
The handle, then it's the top, a real highway, the frets are well polished, the polish is super soft, nothing n'accroche the cutaway nickel short, but happiness ...
This applies to the entire finish of the instrument is really perfect.
The guitar is just beautiful.

SOUNDS

At the sound, this instrument is very versatile. Acoustically, it has a very good spectral balance, with a slight penchant for mediums. The projection is more than satisfactory.
Personally I play mostly with a metal tab (picking, blues, gypsy ...), I just take a good old plectrum plastoc ', and I get crystal clear sound ideal for scanning.
By connecting the beast (in a console every beast eh, not with an amp j'm'embête electro ...) it was immediately amazed by the realism of the preamp. All at "noon" it sounds now, any corrections that are brought are immediately meaningful and effective. I just regret the lack of a microphone in the box that would have added more sound possibilities ...

OVERALL OPINION

I own this guitar for about two years, and I'm not ready to change it. I have tried many different models (in this price range ...) and voila, I flashed on it for its small hand medium that sings to me immediately to the ears ... Unpretentious little guitar that makes the job being asked and that's all bad ... I count him just to add a micro air in the box to complete the picture!

OVERALL OPINION

2 years
I struggled to tame ...
the bass string MI sizzles a little on the 1st and 2nd frets.
Yes, not bad ... takamine, taylor, seagull, ibanez.
9 1/2/10
Perhaps everything in life is a matter of taste and budget ... especially and 320/340 euros
DELMAS in Perpignan, we can not say anything .... must be to put a PICKGARD below the rosette
to protect the body from scratches from the hand rhythm.

what is certain is that in this price range, it is unbeatable at the moment.
It took me a while to get used to, because I found it a little hard to play.
but it's all in your head actually ... and when you love it does not count.
I am very satisfied because now it sounds not too bad in simple acoustic
even if the fund is not large. against it by a beautiful sound with electric or EAR ROLAND AC60. it also has a built-in tuner that we like it or not is handy for guys like me who hate to play out of tune and do not want to spend 3 hours to give out such a KORG tuner.
