Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Cutlass Plus HSS is a solid-body electric guitar with a poplar body, roasted maple five-bolt neck and rosewood fingerboard. Its bridge humbucker and middle/neck single-coils are selected with a five-way switch, giving you a single instrument for clean passages, rhythm parts and driven leads. Push the master-volume control to engage the mid boost when a part needs added presence. The vintage tremolo handles pitch movement, and locking tuners are specified to support stable tuning during active playing.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Switching from clean rhythm passages to driven lead parts with the five-way HSS layout.
- Adding midrange presence during a live part without changing amplifier settings.
- Using tremolo pitch movement while relying on the guitar’s locking tuners.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need a supplied case or gig bag; either is sold separately.
