    What exactly do you want to know?

    Its a low end (Sub €150) Cort acoustic with Spruce top (not sure if solid or laminate) and Mahogany Back & Sides (Laminate)

    Cort are a decent make. Member of my band playes one off the more expensive models (jumbo body,all solid woods with pick-up). Plays well.

    Dude, you need to learn to love your guitars, literally, above all other things!! Otherwise it's just not rock 'n roll :)

    I've a few Corts, great guitars.

    Dunno about that now lads, strings are sore on the fingers and give calluses, can only imagine what'd happen if you got that attached.

    Good way to check if it has a solid top is to look at the wood grain at the sound hole where you can see how thick the top is. If you can see the wood grain right through the top its probably solid. If its painted over or looks dodgy, its probably laminate. But who cares of you like the sound of it.
