Introducing the Cort X500 Menace, a reincarnation of the classic X500 model with a fierce, modern twist, designed to cater to the needs of metal and extreme music guitarists. This guitar boasts an array of upgraded features that will elevate your playing to new heights and deliver an unparalleled experience for those who crave dark and aggressive tones.
One of the standout features of the X500 Menace is its stunning design, featuring a striking combination of a Mahogany body wing with a Maple top. This classic wood pairing offers a harmonious blend of characteristics, delivering a sound that is thick, cutting, warm, rich, full, and sweet. Complementing this construction is the neck-thru-body design, ensuring exceptional sustain, tone transfer, and stability, so you can confidently dive into your wildest solos and riffs with ease.
The X500 Menace comes equipped with a 7-piece Maple / Purple Heart / Panga Panga neck, a true testament to Cort's commitment to crafting high-quality instruments. This neck provides rock-solid stability, while the compound radius fingerboard (ranging from 12 to 15.75 inches) enables seamless transitions between easy chording and high-speed soloing. It grants unfettered access to the highest frets, making your performance flawless and utterly enjoyable.
Prepare to unleash aural devastation with the powerful Seymour Duncan Sentient & Nazgūl Humbucker set. These high-output passive humbuckers deliver an earth-shattering performance, perfect for driving extreme genres to new heights. The Nazgūl, with its large ceramic magnet and custom winding, offers a harmonious blend of note articulation, pick attack, and saturation, ensuring that your riffs hit with unmatched intensity. On the other hand, the Sentient neck pickup provides pristine cleans and fluid leads under high gain, adding versatility to your sound palette.
Embracing the Menace's bold and aggressive aesthetics is a reverse headstock, capturing the attention of any audience while you command the stage with confidence. The FloydRose 1000 Series Tremolo further enhances the guitar's performance, keeping it in tune even during the most intense and daring tremolo techniques. Whether you're dive-bombing or executing extreme harmonic squeal pull-ups, the Floyd Rose system provides unrivalled tuning stability.
Finally, Cort has chosen an Ebony fingerboard for this guitar, delivering a visually stunning and smooth playing surface. Its jet-black beauty exudes a level of sophistication that matches the guitar's menacing presence.
In conclusion, the Cort X500 Menace is the ultimate weapon for metal and extreme music enthusiasts seeking to take their artistry to the next level. Its powerful Seymour Duncan pickups, neck-thru-body construction, Maple top on Mahogany body, Floyd Rose tremolo system, and other premium features combine to create an instrument that exudes power, versatility, and exceptional playability. Embrace the darkness and unleash the Menace within!
