Description

Cort built the X100-OPBK as the entry-level model in the X Series electric guitar line, positioning it to share the playability characteristics of the higher-end X Series models at an accessible tier. It was offered in three open pore finishes: Black, Black Cherry Burst, and Black Burst.

The guitar is constructed with a bolt-on hard rock maple neck and a meranti body. The jatoba fingerboard carries a 400 mm (15.75") radius across 24 frets over a 648 mm (25.5") scale length. Two Powersound humbuckers handle pickup duties, routed through a controls layout of one volume, one tone, and a three-way selector switch. The 6-point tremolo bridge and die-cast tuners are finished in black hardware throughout.

Owners seeking replacement parts — including tremolo saddles, die-cast tuner buttons, or a compatible nut — should verify dimensions against the original components before sourcing substitutes. A qualified guitar technician can assist with setup, intonation, and any hardware replacement on this instrument.

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.

Put yours on the record.

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.
