Re Takamine, I seriously considered buying an EG523SC (Jumbo electro acoustic, solid flame maple top, back and sides) for a number of months. The electrics were great but unplugged, which matters most, different examples of the model varied a lot. The worst sounded like rattling cardboard, so I was put off. The Yamaha CPX had the same issues. I plumped for a Tanglewood TW58 Nat in the end and have not regretted it. You can't tell that much from a label. You have to play the ACTUAL guitar you are going to buy to really know. So in answer to the question, is the Cort any good? If it sounds good to you, then it is.
