the gibson LP standard now costs $3759. I am also disappointed because they discontinued the ebony finish, which was the best finish... and it was cheaper... Anyhow. I think the epis are made in a factory in china rather than indonesia, but I haven't really got anything bad to say about the epis as far as construction goes. The electronics are the weakness really. Not sure if that gretsch bass I have is from the same factory, but it's pretty nice for the most part. Needs a bit of fretwork it seems, but that's not a massive issue.

I vouch for that. Almost the same on the Fender end but there is normally like $100-200 difference.
I might pop into my local shop this week to see if they are going to stock this guitar. Probably going to be close to a grand here but this shop is pretty good price wise.

Does anybody here have the computer knowledge/ time to show what the Cort will look like with custom hardware on Photoshop or something by any chance?

And I'm curious how many dealers are going to stock this guitar. Not sure if it will just go to a few select ones, or if they'll be carried in practically every big store that has similar guitars.

Comparatively expensive. Wasn't terrible when our dollar was 1 for 1 but now it's a bit worse off.
Of course, always hard to tell by retail price but say for a Fender Standard Strat HSS Plus Top. US (RRP, $739USD ~$900 AUD) http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/StratFatMBSB AUS (RRP $1,149AUD ~$950USD) http://musoscorner.com.au/site/index...474&storepid=6 You can see why I don't mind buying from the US. ![]()

You might be able to get one for a good price, it's shorter distance from Indonesia to Australia than it is from Indonesia to the UK, as far as I can tell if the guitar shop sells Cort guitars, they will sell these

As I learned today, it cost me twice as much to ship a package to Indonesia than the US or Europe. Well... only because I required tracking but still.
![]() Anyway, wonder how the pickups will sound. Hugh looked over the pickups but not entirely sure what that means.

Didn't mine have tracking as well? Or did it include that anyway?

Surely almost everyone who buys this will end up upgrading the pickups to MBKs

You'd be surprised about that. I expect a lot of these guitars will end up in the hands of fan boys who don't really play guitar or know anything of tone.
