Deal Details
Small shop in the west coast but Brett (info at ploutone) is a good guy and very responsive. Evertune Bridge (Basically superglue for strings) and Seymour Duncan - Sentient and Nazgul - seriously hot yet tamed. Neck is Composite and feels more like Charvel and Jacksons than Ibanez's.

Ok so i own several Corts now. Bellamy I hate. The rest I love .. The Fatty, the Cheapo G110 and the pro G300 is a dream come true (Orgasmic). The Fatty and Cheapo pickups are trash to me but I digress as they are wonderful when compared to what else is out there at this price point.

I've been waiting on the Duality and the Evertune because the Duality is just hyper orgasmic and the Evertune because I have avoided them with bulk being the reason for every Evertune guitar I have tried. Supposedly and this is from Youtube videos - The way the guys hold this guitar and explicitly state how light it feels I tend to believe them or choose to believe them.

Got the Duality II at a sick price and the Evertune is their Best of the Best. Being a Cort brand junkie (ahem like Fdr and IBZ) I have to get all of their best value and best period but that is my addiction, not yours.

Seriously this would go head to head against my FujiGen, Ibanez Prestige and beat some of them at it. No comparison to any Fultras that I own or the Puhrs that everyone drools over. In my opinion they are absolutely disgusting for the money we pay for them.

Gibson .. No comment.

Subjectively It feels like a $250 pedal from Wampler that I thought only crazy people bought until I got one and it just changed everything. Cort Fatty and other Corts at a higher price point above are like that.

OTD (Out the Door - Different from shipped as it includes Tax or Not)
$799 OTD

What is interesting is the build quality without the bulk. This has been the Evertune Achilles Heel.
Here is one of many youtube in-love videos [youtube.com]

$900 OTD
Here are the Big Box stores with OTD for the most of us at around $900.

There is even a Walmart seller selling this .. Looks like Cort is having its Black Friday now

I just got the Duality at a crazy price from the Ploutone Folks.

Sorry Laugh

You're spot on about the Duality though, really nutty specs and craftsmanship for the sale price. Only upgrade is the nut -- Black Tusq XL 6643-00 fit perfectly. The original nut was binding a bit with heavy trem use, but yeah. It's my regular guitar right now. Got some photos of it as well

Wow, ok, I'm definitely ordering one of these guitars tonight, but I can't decide between the Cort KX700 EverTune or the X700 Duality II. Interested in opinions, but especially would love to hear from @muni2773 and @allenbee (who has helped me with guitars before - thanks again!)

I'm looking for something to play (er... get better at?) shred/metalcore. I'm a wannabe Angel Vivaldi / Michael Angelo Batio. I already have a Schecter C-1 Plus hardtail with an upgraded bridge pickup (Seymor Duncan JB). So I'm leaning toward the Duality because of the Fishman Fluence and the tremolo vs the EverTune, even though the sale price is $100 more expensive. What would you do?
