test power on my new cort kx5

[NelsonPesadelo]

Getting This Guitar Soon....

[wkwlive1]

yeah, cool...

[SCDigitalPhotography]

omen 6 or kx 5? D:

[wkwlive1]

kx 5 :D

[SCDigitalPhotography]

@wkwlive1 haha, any particular reasons? :)

[wkwlive1]

simply coz i have one kx5, hahaha...

[LucaTurilli89]

can I place 11 size strings on Cort KX-5? I already did once and tune it to E tone and the frets damaged for seconds :(. If I tune it in Drop C or Drop B will the frets stay undamaged?

[wkwlive1]

so far i've used 9 gauge strings, it lasted me for like 2 years and it still works fine, higher gauge strings will damage the fret wire quickly, be it in whatever tunes..

[LucaTurilli89]

@wkwlive1 well I placed 11th strings size Ernie Balls and they didn't damage them in dropped B tuning :))). They just shined a little more after playing. But in E tuning I am sure they will start to deform a lot faster ;).

[wkwlive1]

haha, i think that's the sign already, (getting shinnier)

[TheVesselkyt]

@LucaTurilli89 what you mean by damaged? I'm using cort too, plan to use 011 gauge....can you explain what u mean by damaged? :)

[LucaTurilli89]

@TheVesselkyt the frets get shiny (they start to wear out very fast with 11 strings and I mean literally they start to get flat rather than round).

[TheVesselkyt]

@LucaTurilli89 thanks for the useful info :)

[DrakotMetal]

do you think schecter omen 6 or ibanez rga42 is better than the cort kx5?

[wkwlive1]

i think it's more or less the same, but cort kx5 definately is cheaper.

[wkwlive1]

I would say, worth the try, and most of all, worth the price... :)

[MassOfState]

@wkwlive1 If not.. well at least its nice looking hehe :)

[AdRockFun]

I did not know if buy this guitar . . .

But now , I know it , I must buying this fucking guitar ! :D

[alexholus]

круто!

[TheJutubacz]

WOW MEN ! your fingers... OMG XD

[master64k]

Nowwww....................... play something!

[agentelectric]

so how does the guitar perform? I know its cheap and lets face it, cheap stuff arent always great in terms of quality. but i've read some fairly good reviews. does it sound good live and while recording? any problems wit its hardware like knobs, tuners, pickup selector,input jack etc? do u think this is as good as or better than an ibanez RG350m or dx?

Thanks lots!!!

[wkwlive1]

both guitars are cool, i used ibanez rg370dx before this, and i sold my ibanez after i got this. simply because, it matches my specs required more than ibanez did. especially tuning on a floating bridge of ibanez rg is always a hassle, compared to this fixed bridge, the sustain is sweet and i can tune to whatever alternative tuning that i want whenever i want it. used both guitars for recording, both of them sounds nice too, provided you have a good sound engineer to programme it for you....

[WaRl0ck3rr]

Is it better than an Ibanez GRG 170 dx ?( for metal )

[wkwlive1]

of course better than any gio series...

[WaRl0ck3rr]

@wkwlive1 Thanks , so I'll buy it :p

[d9432h]

Is it better than an Ibanez RG321 MH???

[wkwlive1]

it depends on what do you need and how would you like it to sounds like. rg will gives you a more comfortable feel when you do shreddings, no doubt about it, but this guitar have more radius on the neck, so apart from the thin feel for shredding, it's nice to hold some chords and bends as well. so there's actually no better guitar or what in this general question, coz better it might be in a lot of forms, so which is yours?

[sleepyman9]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT. That's all I've gotta say.

[rambo00rock17]

i got the same guitar in red playin on a rolland cube 80x with a boss mt-2 metal zone pedal and it only sounds like this on somedays

[wkwlive1]

hmmm...metal zone only gives you a deep tone with a lot of treble and bit of mid tone, you have to use a warmer overdrive to have this sound, or warmer distortion. definitely not distortion for metal riffing...

[havik016]

hey man u have to tell me how the hell u get this guitar to squeal like that ive i just cant get mine to do it..??????

[wkwlive1]

oh, try with high gain distortion, and as i mentioned earlier, i only use a micro cube in this video, so there's no effect in between except the gain from the amp, use the bridge pickup, and of course you have to grab your pinch harmonics accurately....hope it helps

have a nice day...

[havik016]

@wkwlive1 hey man fanx bro sweet works fine now just gta work out the pinch harmonics getn it sorted fanx for your help

[wkwlive1]

@havik016, glad it helps......cheers...

[1992sanu]

Nope.the best guitar in that price is cort z42.its a beast,try it and be blowned away!!!

[fretjamdotcom]

This guitar is amazing for the price. Probably the best guitar you can get for under £200

[cristiano2pf3lz]

Fuckin awesome man!!!!

malmsteen junior!!!!!

haiuHAUUIiahiHUIHIUAHIhuiahHAH­IUh

;)

Pretty good

[wkwlive1]

thanks

[jiwing96]

nice :)

[pkerlover]

Never heard of Cort, are they better then Ibanez?

[SmokiMcjoint]

it is perfect i just got it for christams and it sounds great with the roland cube 15x ! thanks for the advice!

[wkwlive1]

haha, thx for your generous comment, i'll try to improve myself in the future..

[20Rebelya09]

i have 1 in black its really easy to move ur fingers down the neck and the strings are bendy which i like  wat amp would go best with the guitar?????????

[wkwlive1]

well, about amp, it's a bit subjective question to answer, i just used the roland micro cube in this video....

[Kraden88]

whoaaa!!! Awesome job man, and your cort looks and sound so pretty, how is the action? it had good setup from the factory? thanks

[wkwlive1]

in fact, the setup is quite ok, but i modified it to my setup...

[bkgrinch]

yuck..you play like shit..you can be fast, but....u sound bad

[Mantistas23]

Hi, liked the demo of your new cort guitar but I'm wandering are there still left KX5 bloody punishers left? ;D such a cool finish

[gigile5]

you're a really good player !!

tell me plz does this guitar's good enough for playing Muse or too heavy ??

[wkwlive1]

thx man, well, since it's quite a versatile guitar, i think it's no problem to play Muse, but just the look i think it's a little bit too 'rock' to play Muse, think a jaguar or a strat or even a tele will look nice......hope it helps.....

[gigile5]

Thanks ; )

[ChrisBradley2901]

I don't think it is too heavy for muse.

It plays all Muse songs beautifully for me.

Its perfect.

[gigile5]

Thanks but too late i bought an ibanez gsa60 I saw some muse's covers with it and i'm quite a beginner so for me it's a really great guitar

[ChrisBradley2901]

I've got a GSA-60 too :)

Very good choice to start out with but I've modified mine with a sustainer in the neck pickup.

[gigile5]

so for a beginner who loves muse like me is it good ??

[ChrisBradley2901]

It is.

The humbucker can play all your heavy stuff.

Very good value for money.

[videobramovic]

you are too good!!!! i have the same guitar:P

[wkwlive1]

tq very much....

[TheHusky9]

this or the ibanez rgr421exfm, OR the jackson dk2t?

[LordEaker]

it's a very good, I've one...

[wkwlive1]

the mighty mite motherbucker is already a very powerful pickup, i never fancy pickup change.

[Kubax230]

What pickups? I have standart :D

[bkgrinch]

i have cort xk5 and so i wanted first to sell it, but than i liked it more and more

[ValentineSpirit]

Yeeeaaar, Cort guitars are great !!! I have Cort "KH 5 BP" ( custom ) and I love it.

[hjoore]

Very good! The KX5 can sound good in the hands of a skilled guitarist like you. I like it too, its easy to play, but I still like the sound of my Les Paul more.

[wkwlive1]

hmm les paul, yup les paul has a more beefy tone if you compare it to kx5, i agree, but it can't make the twangy sound like a telecaster, that's the set back, and also it only have 22 frets, but on the beefy heavy tone, i totally agree with you. cheers...

[pulbur01]

i have played on this guitar...what should i say,i wouldn't buy it :P

[wkwlive1]

different guitarist have different requirement i guess :p but i guess it's more than worth it compare to the price..

[aj0Metal]

i got the same but black with deadskull i think that guitar socks

[wkwlive1]

yeah, at first i wanted to sell it off, but the more i play it, the more i like it.

[panu05]

What do you think is better a ESP M50 or the Cort KX5 for play hard rock?

I'll use eith a Peavey Vypyr 15 amp

[wkwlive1]

if you ask me, i would rather have a cort kx5 rather than m50, coz it have 24 frets with string through body, which will give you damn nice sustain and also the push pull coil tap, to let you have a single coil tone anytime you like, so basically i think it's a more versatile guitar and powerfull to play hard rock.

[BlackSheep660]

em... WOW?! Damn nice fingers dude :O

I bougth same guitar and Roland Cube 30X, will rock :]

[wkwlive1]

thx, and yeah these combination only is enough to rock, haha..

[BlackSheep660]

yeah, thats why, later Im going to buy Seymour Duncan's SH-6 and BOSS MT-2 :] That will be evil :)

[wkwlive1]

cool...or you can try dimarzio breed and beta aivin hm200

[LucaTurilli89]

@BlackSheep660 can I place 11 size strings on Cort KX-5? I already did once and tune it to E tone and the frets damaged for seconds :(. If I tune it in Drop C or Drop B will the frets stay undamaged?

[wkwlive1]

thx man.
