Cort's Duality

What's there not to like when it comes to Cort's X700 seen here in light blue burst - ash body with maple top, Seymour Duncan pickups, locking tuners... the works. The only reservations for many of us is that Cort label. Ironically, Cort makes many other popular models, Ibanez is an easy reference. Implication - they make good stuff & others trusted them to make their stuff, an OEM arrangement if you will. The Cort stuff are not getting good coverage here as well simply because the price range coupled with the brand name goodwill get in the way of other brand names in the same price bracket. Whatever it is, I'm thankful Cort has the capacity to make good stuff.
