i'm from indonesia. i can answer your "wow" thougts about how great that guitar are with such pretty low price : becoz korean/chinese companies buy our land cheap, build factories here with cheap material from our nature, and make much money by selling their guitars in market cheap BUT they pay salary of our ppl way so cheap too!

[@MrPolevaulter]

Yeah, I know. The thing is, budget guitars also used to be really poor. Not anymore it seems.

[@robinmeng]

Well… Rifqi, Nike used to do same business in poor countries too. Not only Nike. So l’m feel very really sorry to say this but, that’s what some of world class companies do. Also Indonesia is big country with pretty high population, not as much as India or China, but still high number of population, due to that till recently most of Indonesian big company or corporate done business mostly inside their country. Not interested in exporting. Wish one day you or your people build good guitar which is made in Indonesia with your own brands. Then you guys will be able to pay enough salary. Good luck Indonesia :) by the way Elmo, great playing with that Cort guitar :)

A dear friend of mine that has since passed had one of these for a few years. Always enjoyed playing it, compairs with a Mexistrato for sure. Awesome playing my friend. - All thee Best

[@dc3763]

A few words for a G260CS.. Bought it from Thomann for 258€, guitar was great, nice finish, 3.2kg, some cosmetic tiny deffects, but it had one of the four bolts that hold the neck to the body damaged in terms that someone overtightened and damaged the threads.. Thomann was contacted, and the guitar was replaced free of charge, great job from them. Second guitar is great, only flaws would be some tiny remaining of polishing paste on some places, tiny scratches in the finish visible only with a flashlight, and thats it. The guitar is all in all awesome, still 3.2kg, body is slightly more ergonomicaly cut in compare with the stratocaster, frets are not scratchy, or sticking out of the fretboard, fretboard finish is just wow, I loove the finish on the back of the neck, it is very satin and fast, not too thin, but very comfortable (something like squier), it stays in tune, but I use the tremolo just for light vibrato, and another day it's stil in tune... nut is cut perfectly, action on the lower side... I love the pickups, all my life I was playing humbuckers, and now I was blown away with this singlecoils, I would never replace them. You can roll down the volume and get sparkly clean sound, and turn it back up and get some bite. I didn't expect the sustain because of the floating tremolo, but it has it in a HB SC550 range.. Guitar just vibrates and feels alive, feels like an instrument... I also have Harley Bentons (sc550, dc dlx gotoh) which are ok guitars, with throwed on some great parts, but in hands feels maybe more undeveloped.. If someone is new in the guitar world, and it needs the first guitar, g260cs is a must.. It could beat double the price guitars... Cheers!! :)

[@matthewblack7206]

Most Cort guitars are rather underrated. I have the G-290 FAT and the CR-200 single-cut 'Les Paul'. They are great guitars.

[@MrPolevaulter]

I get the same impression.

[@brookvillelanguageservices9005]

I have a Cort acoustic that I wouldn't trade for anything. I gigged all over Asia with it. I also have a Cort CR250 which is as good as any Gibson I've tried. My super cheap Cort Action PJ bass is awesome too. Great neck and it sounds wonderful with LaBella flatwound strings. I had a G110 Strat style and it was a horrible guitar. I think as long as you stay away from the bottom of the barrel models you'll get a really decent guitar from Cort.

[@manoshatzikonstantinos6057]

Hi there my g290 fat, is awful! Great specs, but the frets needed leveling, and the 5 way switch is faulty. Glad yours was ok

[@DJBuglip]

I've had a Cort flying V since 1986. Toured all across the country with it. They're great.

[@voiceofreason8594]

I first learned about the G Series guitars when I picked up a used G254 which is basically the same guitar in a Basswood Body with no pickguard and back routed control area for $70.00 about 6 years ago. Then I started checking on the G260 about 3 years ago. The Ash bodied Cort Guitars are usually pretty heavy, over 8 pounds. I inquired on at least 5 or 6 over a 2 year period but all of them were heavier than I wanted. Then, last summer, I found one in mint condition, 6 pounds, shipped to my door for about $284.00. It can easily compete with my American and Japanese Fender Strats

[@Wabin22]

Since Cort are making all these fantastic instruments for everyone else, I think they are the company you go to when you really want to buy some great quality but not pay too much. Love Cort for what they are doing, you can always count on their quality!

[@DJBuglip]

And goddamn, may I just say, Elmo, SPECTACULAR review. You put the guitar through its paces, tested all the types of things you'd want to get out of that pickup configuration, and did it all without a bunch of narcissistic chatter and bs. Would that all gear reviews were this focused and thorough. Thank you very much.

[@MrPolevaulter]

Cheers

[@rokrok9690]

Sincere thanks for the review. Because of this, I decided to buy one myself. I changed the humbucker mic to real Seymour Duncan but can not tell the difference. I also change the tuners (paid around 100€) and this guitar became excellent.

[@SergeiVlassov]

O yeah! That is my favorite and main guitar for many years already! I have many demos and songs made with it on my channel. I recently updated the tremolo for VS-100 version and did some more updates.

[@LeifPalmin]

Thank you for your work. Very nice of you to show good price worthy equipment for most people that enjoy music as a Hobbie. Impressed by the guitar. Thank you.

[@MrPolevaulter]

And thank you :)

[@railroller]

Thanks for the video. I got this same $399 G260 OPN from Thomann a couple of weeks ago. It is not B stock. My ash body is better matched than the guitar demonstrated here, and the body is light and resonant and the neck joint it immaculate. This guitar was recently made. The strings were fresh and needed to be stretched! Most of the shipping cost was balanced out by not having to pay sales tax, and the shipping from Germany was Amazon quick. Best of all, I could actually communicate Thomann. I was seriously worried that the G260 OPN was old stock because no one else outside Indonesia seems to sell it, and it hasn't been in the Cort catalog for years. As you say, the G260 would enjoy having some great pickups installed, but the only visible cheap part on the guitar is the easy to peel off Cort label on the headstock. Most of low end famous brand guitars I have been looking at recently are actually made by Cort it seems. Thomann also sells a newer and even less expensive version of this guitar, the G260cs. This guitar is composed of all Cort branded parts and has a roasted maple neck.

[@MrPolevaulter]

Cool!

[@barbmelle3136]

From Leo: I have never seen a line of CORT guitars in any store to try, but we did take a CORT X-2 and a M600 in on trade. They are pretty impressive, play really good with good sounding pickups. They are also priced well. I don't know why they are not more popular.

[@SamsWatchReview]

I have that exact model from 2006, it was made in Korea, great guitar.

[@manoshatzikonstantinos6057]

Greetings from Greece, love your work man. Bought a Cort Fat g290 and it was awful with huge problems. Hate it! After watching this video I decided to try a G260, man you are right this is awesome! I gig with it every night! Find it great for pop light rock and clean tones in general. Kee up the great work!

[@kviratasun]

After i watched this video, i checked my local second hand site and wow! found one old new Cort g260 frome some old lady for about 280$. 2014 and still with nylon on all plastic covers, on pickguard and on pickups too.( Her, old lady husband, was local guitar repaier and own few guitars from different range and passed away 4 years early.) This g260 was have bad setup, some frets out, strings high and neck trussrod open... but after few my own in home setups now in playable condition and really nice instrument.

[@dazd8306]

Elmo can make any guitar sound amazing

[@MrPolevaulter]

Thanks :)

[@hkguitar1984]

Amazing what a little care and attention can make to the final build. Given the price range Cort is a stand-out concerning quality and looks. It isn't rocket science, even with CNC and modern manufacturing it still takes people who care to build a quality guitar.

[@stephanematis]

Many have stated that these are the nicest Ash body S type for very little money, and when Fender made their "we won't be using Ash as much" announcement, there was a serious run on this specific guitar by those who wished an Ash model that 70s boat anchor heavy. It appeared for a bit like it wouldn't be made anymore, but it is still listed at Thomann, though my local distributer doesn't seem to want the "middle child" models from Cort. G100, then G300, with some leftover G290 FATs

[@Cayres9]

I dont understand why people are put off by Cort guitars ? seriously here in the UK a Company called Gear 4 Music have dropped the price of this guitar from £300 to £200 why ? They say Corts just dont sell ? I think the brand needs to get big name musicians to use their gear as its criminal that more musicians are not buying them.

[@santrixhimself3679]

Cort makes nice guitars, but you gotta keep one thing in mind: When the Korean government told them to pay there workers properly and to let them form a union, Cort closed all their korea factories and went to indonesia. Not a nice company.

[@zxbc1]

@@santrixhimself3679 If you're talking about injustice, then it's just inherent in the global capitalism system, not to do with Cort or any other companies that source cheap labor. They are completely "legal" in the sense that they are exploiting the labor cost difference, not breaking any laws. Blame the game, don't blame the players. If anything, the Cort factories have brought unprecedented employment opportunities to the Indonesian labor market. How the country deals with its own citizens is its government's problem, not Cort's.

[@dragan4658]

@@santrixhimself3679 not familiar with that particular citation however why not just order them to pay proper wages instead of bringing in a union, as unions come with a high price tag and usually when government gets involved with unions there is payola involved, besides its common business practice to relocate when sudden changes occur in business.

To any guitar snobs if you played any Indonesian guitar it was probably made by Cort. If you played a non-japanese ibanez you definitely played a cort.

Sincere thanks for the review also. I have the G280DX and what can I say. Excellent guitar. I would say, a lot of guitar for the money I paid (~420EUR). Why G280DX ? Because I was looking for a G series one and in the shops here and the only models available were G110 and G280DX. So, I went for G280DX. Other thing about ? Well, I didn't expect to like the pickups, but I found them surpisingly good. And so on. Again , tanh you and keep going.

[@daniellarson3068]

Nice looking guitar. I bought this Stratocaster kit guitar and am putting a natural stained finish on it. Just buying a strat may have been a better option. Boiled linseed oil can take days to dry in a cold house. Basswood certainly doesn't have the nice appearance of that guitar you demonstrated. The real good thing about that Cort guitar is your playing.

Hi. I had a 2nd hand cort strat ($100nz) that was awsome. After 3yrs I wanted to upgrade and always liked a mid range Ibanez($1000nz) that had a sound I liked and hello they were using cort x pots inside, awsome axe. Only difference was resale, $30 for the cort & $455 for the ibanez, only to get me to the next one. Any way top guitars and channel.

[@jimmyjames2022]

Years ago I dismissed Cort but turns out they are pretty nice these days, plus they're doing all the subbing for brand name mid range guitars as well. They're pricey in Canada though, so other brands get more competitive, for example I got a new Fender MIM on sale for cheaper than a new Cort.

Great review! How does it compared to the Fender Player you reviewed some months ago? I know they're quite different, but I would like to know which one you prefer. If suggestions are welcome, I would like to see an Elmo-style review of any of the Joyo Bantamp hybrid heads, for example the Atomic or the Zombie (probably this last one is more your thing). Will it be possible in the future?

[@MrPolevaulter]

Not much in it to be fair. The Fender might just edge it, but if you take price into consideration, then it might just be this.

[@niallio77]

Strange, i was checking that Cort out a year ago - the thing is, by the time you upgrade the pickups, pots, and possibly tuners, you're at the price of a Mexican Strat so just go for that. On a budget for Strat-style, Yamaha Pacifica is a great choice. After upgrades, you're still under the price of this Cort.

[@BloodBoughtMinistries]

depends on the country you live in.

Sorry to hear.

[@KozmykJ]

@@MrPolevaulter The second one wasn’t Perfect either but I decided to keep it anyway. It took a month from the Return Date … 🙄 The marks in the matt lacquer of the neck, near the nut, are much less than the previous one. The missing paint from around the neck screws had been rather inexpertly covered up with Sharpie ink. The string tree screw hole had been drilled at an odd angle. Once I had decided to keep it, I plugged the hole and redrilled it; also fitted a Graph Tech tree. Reshaped the odd angled Whammy Bar too. They gave me a discount for my trouble after I said I was keeping it. 👍 BTW this “CS” model is a bit different from the SE OPN model that you’ve reviewed here. Roasted Maple neck, Pau Ferro fingerboard, three knobs - no push/pull. Mine has Cort hardware and pickups (still magnetic though), not the SD and Wilkinsons of the SE. They sound good though, no problems there. Interesting pickup selection: Position #1 - Bridge (with it’s own 500k pot track) Position #2 - One Bridge coil + Middle Position #3 - Middle Position #4 - Neck + Middle Position #5 - Neck

I have a G200 DX jss. Its serial number is 201210573...what year was it made of? What do you think about it? Probably 2012...?

[@MrPolevaulter]

Haven't tried it.

[@Alex_Echo]

Damn man, your playing is sooo tasty, pleasure for the ears, very nice

[@squirelova1815]

I think Cort is second only to Samick for making guitars for almost every other brand in the whole world.

[@joaopedrodoamaral2882]

I'm about to buy this guitar, but the store lost the tremolo arm when they moved to another location! I want to buy another tremolo arm but I don't know the size and system of the original one (screw/nut/push-in)

[@MrPolevaulter]

I don't either.

Ciao Elmo, mi sa che ora la G260 non la fanno più con i Duncan, ma i pickup sono Cort VTS 63 e VTH 59 humbuker. Secondo te è valida ugualmente? Mi diverto molto a guardare le tue recensioni oneste. Grazie. Ciao

[@MrPolevaulter]

Not sure as I haven't tried those pickups.

[@a.534]

is this a better starter guitar than yamaha pacifica?

[@MrPolevaulter]

Better than the one I tried.

[@craigdanj]

Shud be way more expensive too

[@macsoto6947]

I choose cort...

[@noel0004]

Do you think the Cort G250 SE is any good?

[@MrPolevaulter]

I've liked most Corts.

[@melexdy]

Can you share your pup's height? Mine doesnt sound straty at all. But I do think it's the best guitar I ever owned.

[@MrPolevaulter]

Don't know.

[@Akoustyco]

Should I buy an used Cort g260 (this exact model) made in Indonesia for 300 dollars? It would be my first electric guitar (I want to play funk rhythms, lofi loops and mostly practice instrumental fingerpicking melodies)

[@MrPolevaulter]

Should be great. But try before you buy.

[@EF-mj9gw]

similar to cort g200dx sir, love the natural look, but then i choose pacifica with better playability for me 😁

[@MrPolevaulter]

Cool :)

[@andreasbaschir2732]

Hi Elmo! Do you know if this guitar is predisposed to fret sprout?

[@MrPolevaulter]

Mine had none.

[@ValveReactor]

What is the best guitar you´ve ever played?
