      Any update on how you felt the guitar? Was it worth it?

    • @sharads6134

      ​@larsvortue I own both CR250 (Antique Amber/ Orange 🍊 burst) with flamed maple top and CR300 (Aged Vintage burst). Both guitars sound terrific and better than Epiphone Standard LP, ESP EC-256, EC-401, EC-1000.
      CR250 sounds a bit brighter and louder, maybe because of flamed maple top, than CR300.

      Cort builds very good guitars for many many brands, for ex. PRS SE line, Ibanez, Squier, Fender, Schecter, Musicman, G&L tribute series and many more. With their own brand Cort, they want to show what they can do.

  • @ivanfoofoo
    @ivanfoofoo Před 3 lety +11

    Did anyone notice that the neck joint used to be closer to a LP and now it's really contoured, allowing for better high fret access? I find this contour way better than what Gibson/Epiphone offer in their Modern/Axcess models.

    • @tiagoramalhais5493
      @tiagoramalhais5493 Před 3 lety +1

      Yes, the neck heel is a big plus, not better than the Gibson Axcess/HP but much better than the Modern heel. It looks similar to the LTD EC-1000 heel.

    • @divyansh4322
      @divyansh4322 Před 3 lety +1

      Depends on how you play.
      If you're into bends or drop tuning then yes, they are in the bottom category in terms of quality, but still better than the competition (epiphone les paul special ve and studio lt, which are in the same price segment) but lesser sustain than the Epiphone.
      If you increase your budget a little bit more, you can look at Ibanez GRGR221PA AQB (if you're into burl top) or the CR200 if you want les paul. Its a set neck design and vintage 59 pickups.
      I hope you find the guitar which inspires you to play so you can create your own licks and solos someday :)

    @ak2849 Před 3 lety +3

    Hey! I'm confused between CR200 and ESP LTD 256. There's about a 100$ price difference between the two where I live. I'm an absolute beginner but intend to keep the guitar for rest of my life(I'm quite old for a beginner lol). I can put in the money if it's worth it though.
    Which one would you suggest?? I've been torn between the two for a couple of months now and can't decide.

    • @divyansh4322
      @divyansh4322 Před 3 lety +2

      If you're into Metal, then go for ESP ltd 256, i like the FM version in Cobalt Blue. You won't have any complaints. ESP guitars (especially the pick ups) are designed in a way that gives them a high output so it's great for metal music, but not so good for blues or pop.
      CR200 is absolutely amazing for the price

    How are the neck profiles compared to what these are based off of?

    • @divyansh4322
      @divyansh4322 Před 3 lety +1

      Neck profile feels slightly different than the real LP but still a bit on the chunkier side. If you prefer a faster neck then maybe consider any Ibanez model in the same price category. If you're a fan of the chunkier neck which gives it a unique tone at a much affordable price, then the CR series is good enough.

    I've read that the CR100 has intonation issues on higher frets? Is it a big deal? Can it be fixed by bridge adjustment?

    • @Nightingale1887
      @Nightingale1887 Před rokem

      Higher fret intonation is a thing on all guitars but most of the time you won't be up there especially if you are a beginner. If I were you I'd skip the most basic models and invest a bit more to get a CR200-250. I got the CR300 yesterday. It is absolutely amazing. I have 34 guitars and counting. This is one of the better ones.

      I own a CR300 and a CR200. Both have a mahagony neck, but the profile of the CR200 seems slightly flatter. It is not a big difference - I prefer narrow necks, and I notice the difference in direct comparison only. Both are great instruments with a great playability and quality. Addition: I have converted the CR300 to passive pickups (Seymor Duncan SH1N and SH4 like a Cort Cistom) and added Schaller Locking tuners...what a georgeous instrument!
