To be truthful, I actually received this guitar on Monday but i wanted to live with the Cutlass for a few days before I shared this "review".
From the moment the good folks at EBMM introduced the Cutlass, I knew it was my next guitar purchase. Hook, line & sinker! So I can say that my expectations were high & the guitar blows them out of the water! Wow! Well done, EBMM! The guitar is simple yet eloquent. I think "modern classic" is a perfect moniker.
Since I'm not the best at writing reviews, I'm just going to point out features that jump out at me after a few days of living with this guitar;
The neck- bulkier than I expected but is really comfortable & nice for bending. Love the stainless steel frets.
The pups-OMG, these are a knock out! Every position is so tuneful.
The trem system-smooth as silk.
For me, I've always felt that EBMM guitars were built as workhorse's. Well, workhorses that happen to be daring & eye fetching. Where usefulness & functionality came first, instruments meant to be played. A instrument that weekend warriors like me have a guitar that I can rely on & is built like a tank. This is that guitar! Perfect!!
I have on question, is the buffered output jack meant to be stiff? Any other Cutlass owners know what I mean? Has anyone else experienced this?
The output jack aside, this guitar is a home run! Thank you EBMM!
