      ​​@@MaxSoloMusic Hi Max! Just dropping by to say thank you for helping me to decide to buy this guitar with your review. I got KX300 the non-etched version and pretty much everything you said was spot on!
      The sound is fantastic (great pups and body material), Super 77 really punches above its weight. The body and fretwork finishes are a bit rough but I can live with that. My only issues are the neck which is too thick for my hands, and the chrome tuners/bridge which somehow get corroded easily.
      Keep up the good work!

    This review is so good that again I have doubts about which guitar to choose.
    For months I have been between the Ibanez RGA42FM and the Cort KX-300, both have almost the same specifications, almost the same price, even similar colors.
    I'm looking for the most versatile guitar for playing metal (Iron Maiden, Blind Guardian, Megadeth, Amon Amarth, Fear Factory) ... Help me choose !!

    • @MaxSoloMusic
      @MaxSoloMusic  3 роки тому

      You won't go wrong with any of them. Both produced at the same factory, so quality wise they are identical. Ibanez branded guitars are usually more expensive. So if we're looking at two guitars from these two brands priced the same, we can expect Cort to have a bit higher specs and features

    • @MaxSoloMusic
      @MaxSoloMusic  2 роки тому

      Hey, thanks! It would be interesting to hear about your first impression when the guitar arrives. Just one more thing that was brought to my attention after my Cort videos were published: a couple of people reported the battery had a tendency to die very quickly. If you experience similar symptoms, check the output connector. One or two of its contacts may be touching the shielding inside the body causing a short circuit, meaning the active circuit in the guitar is always on even without the cable plugged. Very rarely but this happens. And it's easy to fix
