Poplar is a fine tonewood that is reminiscent of Alder in sonic character. Full sounding with strong mids and a firm low-end that’s well balanced across the tonal spectrum, Poplar suits a variety of musical genres and playing styles for both electric guitars and basses. This popular pickup configuration with the 5-way switch provides a wide variety of sounds to cover virtually any musical style. With the middle and neck pickups alone or in combination, the sounds are not only ideal for rhythm playing but for distinctive single-coil lead sounds, while the powerful humbucker pickup in the rear provides fat and heavy tones that are perfect for power riffing or blistering leads. The combination of hard maple neck and jatoba fretboard provides tone balance and stability, as well as long sustaining durability. The Cort staggered locking tuners provide excellent tuning stability as well as ease of tuning and string changes. A simple, elegant and efficient way of tuning, these tuners will allow you to focus on your playing. |
