Cort 6 String Solid-Body Electric Guitar, Right, Black Satin, Full (X500MENACE)

The Cort X500MENACE redefines metal-ready tone and stage confidence in a 6‑string solid‑body that’s built to withstand aggressive play. Finished in Black Satin, this guitar looks as menacing as its performance, pairing a modern aesthetic with rugged, high‑gain capability for players who push the limits of extreme music.

Built for Sustain, Access, and Street‑Level Power

• Neck‑through body construction delivers unparalleled sustain and effortless upper‑fret access, so every note rings with clarity even in drop tunings or high‑gain contexts.
• 7‑piece maple / purple heart / panga panga neck with an ebony fingerboard provides rock‑solid stability, tactile speed, and a premium feel that responds to the lightest tremolo pick attack.
• Compound radius fingerboard (12–15.75”) stays comfortable for chords down low and razor‑fast for lead work up the neck.
• Reverse headstock adds visual bite while maintaining straight string pull for reliable tuning stability at speed.

Powerful, Professional Electronics

• Seymour Duncan Sentient & Nazgûl humbuckers deliver high‑output, articulate voicing suitable for slam‑y rhythms, tight palm muting, and soaring leads — designed to cut through the mix with punchy low end and precise note definition.
• 1 volume, 1 tone, 3‑way pickup selector give you immediate access to core tones and quick on‑the‑fly voice changes during performances or recording sessions.

Ride‑Or‑Die Hardware for Extreme Play

• Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo provides the stability to dive, bend, and wobble without detuning, ideal for metal riffs, squeals, and expressive whammy work.
• Next Gen Cort logo signals Cort’s ongoing evolution in design and reliability, pairing contemporary aesthetics with proven hardware for a cohesive performance instrument.

Why the X500MENACE Stands Out

The X500MENACE isn’t just a darker iteration of a classic design — it’s a focused weapon for metal and extreme genres. The neck‑through build, 7‑piece reinforced neck, and ebony board combine to yield exceptional sustain and precise fret accessibility, while the dual‑humucker configuration channels aggressive, articulate dynamics suited to fast riffs, sudden stops, and expressive solos. If you crave a guitar that responds with authority in high‑gain environments and stays rock‑solid through aggressive tremolo use, this is your instrument.

Ideal For

• Metal, djent, and other extreme‑genre players seeking high sustain and aggressive tonality.
• Players who rely on precise tuning stability during aggressive tremolo use and rapid, articulate note definition across the fretboard.
• Stage performers and studio artists who want a visually striking guitar that also delivers professional, reliable performance.

With its dark aesthetic, responsive playability, and purpose‑built electronics, the Cort X500MENACE is engineered to meet the demands of serious players who demand tone that cuts through the mix and a build that won’t back down under pressure.
