Description

Cort built the X100-OPBB as the entry-level model of the X Series electric guitar line, positioning it to share the playability profile of the higher-end X Series guitars while sitting at the base of the range. The Open Pore Black Burst finish was one of three open pore finishes offered on this model.

The X100-OPBB was constructed with a bolt-on hard rock Maple neck joined to a Meranti body, with a Jatoba fingerboard running a 400 mm (15.75") radius across 24 frets over a 648 mm (25.5") scale length. Two Powersound humbuckers fed into a circuit controlled by a single volume control, a single tone control, and a 3-way selector switch. A 6-point tremolo system handled pitch articulation, and all hardware was finished in black, including die-cast tuners.

Owners sourcing replacement parts — tremolo saddles, tuner buttons, nut blanks, or pickup rings — should verify dimensions against the hardware fitted to their specific instrument; a qualified luthier or guitar technician can assist with measurements and setup adjustments.

From the people who own them

Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.

The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.

What do you know about this one?

Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
