Value For Money : Poor
Élecrto-acoustic folk guitar made ​​in Korea (South ... I guess).
It has 20 frets.
The table is solid Sitka spruce top.
The Fund and the handle are made of mahogany.
The keys are rosewood.
The lifts are "Die cast w / Black Knobs" excellent!
EQ Fishman Classic 4T:
- Volume 1.
- Treble 1.
- 1 Medium.
- Grave 1.
- 1 electronic tuner.
One branch from below: the small button that allows you to attach the strap to the back.

Otherwise, the same as in the picture. ^ ^

UTILIZATION

"The SFX series guitars, with their boxes to thin cutaway and arched back, are characterized by a comfortable in."
It is 100% true!
The handle fits comfortably in your hand.
Usually I do not like guitars with varnish sleeves: there I really do absolutely not!
It is very light.
Access to aigë is relatively easy.

Maybe for some, the gap between the strings and the neck at the 12th fret is too high. But a small adjustment, and then voila!

SOUNDS

"It is equipped with an electronic Fihsman to obtain a sound 'big'."
I admit that I did not plugged ... So I can not tell you more or less.

For cons, the raw sound is divine, I'm hooked:
It is round and warm. The folks often sound very metallic: No one! ^ ^
Apparently this is typical of the brand Cort ... ??
I have tried many different brands of acoustic folk (even Takamine ultra expensive), I've never found a sound as warm and round.
NB: I never tried to Martin, Guild, Taylor or ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years now.
I could compare it to a very pretty girl:
A perfect body and a voice that captivates!
<p class="bbcode-offtopic"> Off <span>topic:</span> So <span>perhaps a bit too! ^ ^</span>

This is my first guitar folk. It was a gift, and was particularly well chosen!
Since I test on the right and left other folk guitars and none that Vallent Cort SFX 5!

So I would say that the price / quality ratio is excellent and with experience I buy a Cort!
