It is more exactly the Cort PARKWOOD PW310R, already mentioned in the previous opinion, built in exactly the same way and with the same wood as the PW510R. I give an opinion because I play almost every day for a little over two years.

Regarding the settings: a passion for violin and having already put hands dirty on many occasions, I did not hesitate to tighten the handle myself on the day of purchase because after changing the original draft (too thin to me) by the .13/.56, Mr. had naturally arched. In the process, I lowered the action by filing the base of the bridge saddle.

UTILIZATION

The handle is very comfortable, slim mahogany satin. Access to acute is that of a dreadnaught. By trying it, I knew that after having set as mentioned above, I would get one that suits me perfectly ergonomic and more power. Of course, I have chosen among many others because I had heard and seen its potential noise, though young.

SOUNDS

I love the sound: the bass is powerful and tense, there is no drool, not even the low mids. In fact, the entire midrange product a nice grain, which has already gained heat in just two years. The highs are a beautiful light, or not aggressive acidity. I am delighted that the guitar reaches its full maturity, because it still has great potential.
I play both rhythm with a pick (only soft), in power, as blues by mixing flat and finger picking. It is a living instrument, which captures the nuances of touch and attack, he must be able to give. It responds very well to play percussion. Power and versatility.

OVERALL OPINION

I paid € 650 and is the queen in this price range. It is also much more: it easily withstands the comparison with prestigious competitors that cost more than double. I would do exactly the same choice. It lends itself very well to a sensor rosette. Without hesitation, I offered the best (Seymour Duncan SA 6) and electro-acoustic cutaway have better watch out.
