Meet the Cort X100 X Series 100 Double Cutaway Electric Guitar—a purpose-built instrument for players who crave heavy rock energy, precise intonation, and expressive control. Built to perform on stage, in the studio, and everywhere in between, this guitar is tuned for players who want bite, sustain, and real feel in every note.

At the heart of the X100 is a meranti body finished in an open pore black cherry burst that balances warmth with aggressive presence. The aesthetic professional finish reveals the wood’s natural character while delivering a look that travels well from rehearsal room to front-of-house.

Cort Powersound pickups provide the punch and clarity your riffs demand. In H-H configuration, you’ll enjoy a tight low end, articulate highs, and expressive dynamics—from bone-crushing rhythm to soaring, searing leads. The configuration is designed to stay robust under high gain while remaining responsive to your touch, dynamic without losing bite.

The guitar is equipped with a 6-screw vintage tremolo system that invites expressive bends and shimmering tremolo while maintaining stability and reliable return. Whether you’re locking in palm-muted chug or singing vibrato solos, the tremolo system helps you shape your tone with confidence.

Playability is engineered for speed and comfort. A maple neck with a jatoba fingerboard delivers a smooth, fast feel with durable construction. The 25.5" scale length provides even string tension across the fretboard, supporting tight riffs and articulate leads while maintaining friendly intonation for a wide range of tunings.

The open pore finish isn’t just about looks—it's a purposeful choice that enhances resonance and gives a natural, breathable feel under your fingertips. The double cutaway design ensures effortless access to the upper frets, so you can reach your high-notes without compromise.
