All user reviews for the Cort '70s - no reference

While country of origin I do not know at all, Cort is made in Korea it seems to me, but no info on this model than thirty years.

A rather short sleeve is a small frame, with 21 frets.

2 microphones with a single volume knob and a button for each tone common to the two microphones.

No frills, a vintage guitar with simple steps to make music.

Finished not too bad for a cort of that time.
And especially a look !!...

UTILIZATION

The handle is quite nice, varnished on the back so it slides right through cons I find it a bit late for my taste compared to my Les Paul. on the other hand if you play on TV, you will not be too surprised. the template rather short of the guitar is a little confusing at first but got used to it quickly.

The access is relatively easy to acute because of the geometry double cut. the guitar is light and comfortable Res.

The sound is vintage, the tone common to find different shades easily. Plitot nice.

SOUNDS

So it's clear that it sounds vintage, these pickups really have the personality, the sound is warm, personally I love for blues, rock and everything is back to the fact that serious! The sounds of the neck pickup is very warm, round, and vary much according to the tone. bridge pickup slammed a little more but not necessarily crystalline, a very homogenous.
I loved the sound of that scratching makes!
I tried it on my Laney VC15 all-tube, it's really a nice couple. The figure shows that saturated both in clean, it's really vintage "for amateurs!"

So the sound: clearly the highlight in my opinion

OVERALL OPINION

Ah well I had not There's one week, I restored and I made it sound. yes I play telecaster and les paul for ahabitude. Then like any musicos I tried hundreds of guitars!

So really, one for audio, one for the look and + 1 for value for money! Paid 50 euros to 80 euros back after restoration, it's really a vintage shovel with personality!

Yes I would do this choice in the sense that I like to retype the old shovels, now I put it on sale, but only because I can not keep all the guitars that pass through my hands <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_lol.gif" alt="" />

Really scratched with a personality, pretty cool!

Where was it made? I believe the first Cort models were made in japan...

21 frets, two single-coil pickups, each with a volume control (no toggle switch)

Master tone control

UTILIZATION

Pleasant neck but it's not very fast!!

Good access to the upper frets thanks to the SG-like cutaway

Very light guitar (6.6 lb. max.)

Short scale for small guitarists...

It gas the typical problems of a vintage instrument (tuning stability, machine heads, hum, knobs, etc.)

SOUNDS

The sound is perfect for my music style.

I play it with overdrive or distortion using the neck pickup. I turn the tone control fully down... The sound is incredible between the 12th-14th frets...

The guitar sounds very nice for blues because it has strong mids

I own two, one with a standard tuning and the other one with open tuning in either A or E...

They sound amazing with a bottleneck.

I sometimes add a compressor for solos (but watch out for hum noise...)

Forget about playing hardcore with these guitars.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using them for over one year

I bought them on ebay at a very low price

They sound very good and are quite rare

Strong vintage character

Based on my experience I would buy a third one.

But I don't have any information about this model. I asked in several music shops but nobody knew a thing about them.

If you own one or you have some information about them please get in touch with me
