Do these pickups light up like the Sims pickups do when they change diff modes?

Just a note - it’s just a Fishman made battery compartment, it’s the same on Lakland Skyline’s (44/55-01 & -02 at least). It’s likely a G&B preamp or something similar - doesn’t really matter but just thought I’d let you know. Shows the quality of these Cort instruments, as Cort make the Lakland Skylines in tne same factories with a lot of the same bits as the Corts

It’s an unbelievably good quality instrument, the notes played on the B string are as articulate with as much clarity as they are on the A string, amazing neck, - it’s a proper professional’s bass 👌🏼

2004 Yamaha TRB1005 35” Scale, 5 String, Double Humbucker bass in Caramel Brown Absolutely great condition - hardly any marks on it, it’s 20 years old so it’s not brand new but there’s barely a mark on it. It’s a truly stunning bass - finished in Caramel Brown, it looks and sounds like a boutique bass, with the top end Yamaha craftsmanship on display with the quilted maple decorative veneer over the maple top This is a proper professional bass in terms of looks, sound, playability & features, inc. the following: - 35" extra long scale length (889 mm) - Alder body - Maple top with quilted maple decorative veneer - Sixfold bolt-on five-piece maple-mahogany neck - Rosewood fingerboard with oval inlays - Two Yamaha hum-cancelling pickups with Alnico V magnets - Active 3-band EQ - Yamaha 5-saddle brass bridge & Yamaha die-cast tuners I bought this from BassBros a month ago on impulse, but I’m not really going to gig it. I have 2-3 basses I already use that are ahead of it for the gigs I could use it for, and I’m in dire need of a P or PJ bass for some up coming work that I’ve just been offered, so I’m taking a hit to get a deal done quickly! £595 includes U.K. delivery This is an absolute steal for one of these. especially in good condition like this - I paid more than this for it, and it has probably been in my hands for less than an hour, and hasn’t left the house! I am really after a sale but will possibly listen to trades VIDEO/SOUNDS 👇 Decent little demo video I found on YouTube 👇 that gives a great idea of the sounds is produces: PICS 👇

Just checked this out on a YouTube video as I hadn’t heard of it - wow, I’m well impressed it sounds great. I might be back to you for this

That’s an awful lot of bass for £500 - I nearly forked out £200 the other day just for the pickups that are in this! 😁 I really rate Cort, they’re a massively underrated brand that doesn’t get the kudos it should

What preamp is that on it?

Reduced to £550 which including delivery is really £500, which is less than half of what you’ll pay new for one of these, and this is all but new

Is it up for sale too or is it trades only?

Cort Elrick NJS5 - 35” scale 24 Fret Active Jazz Bass with custom Bartolini preamp & Cort branded gigbag - Reduced to £550 inc U.K delivery For sale is my almost new black Cort Elrick NJS5 24 fret jazz bass. I paid almost a grand for this in June and it’s still in almost as new condition - I have probably played 10-15 gigs with it, so there is some very light swirling on the pickguard, so it’s not absolutely ‘as new’ but it’s near as you’ll get, and it’s priced very competitively - I’m taking quite a hit, and as far as 5 string jazz basses go I can’t see anything close to this for this sort of money It’s absolutely lovely to play - the neck heel is wonderful comfortable, it’s got a super fast neck and it’s really difficult to get a bad sound from it - it has a custom Bartolini preamp that is only put in these basses and in the Elrick handmade NJS basses (exact same preamp in both), it has bass & treble cut/boost, and the mids are push/pull switchable between 400hz/800hz cut & boost This bass sounds absolutely fantastic live - I’ve used it on 80’s gigs, rock gigs and all the function stuff inbetween and it just does what you want, the B and all the notes under low E are really clear and defined, and even with the preamp flat it gives you a beautiful tone I am gutted to be selling it and would absolutely love to keep it, but I have two active 5 string jazzes, well as a Yamaha TRB1005 and I’ve put a deposit on something expensive and need to get it cleared! I have played A LOT of Jazz 5’s and this is absolutely one of the best, however my other jazz 5 is the best I’ve played and I need to pay off my next purchase Trades? I need the cash really, BUT I do need a P Bass, I’ve been looking at things like the MIJ Fender reissues, and could potentially put cash in for the right one (even tho it’ll leave me in a worse position than I am now with the bass I’m buying! 😆 But it’ll save me buying a PBass next month!) Delivery within the U.K. is included in the price, it comes in a really high quality padded, embroidered Cort branded gig bag and I’ll package it up well for the journey - I’ve posted loads of basses before without issue Reduced to £550

I wonder if these will fit a Sadowsky MetroExpress 1st Gen 4 string Jazz..? Is the size of these pickups uniform or do they have different sizes out? Just I’ll try and measure up the Sadowsky then find the official measurements for these online and see if they fit. I’ve got a track record of buying JB pickups that don’t fit tho 🤦‍♂️ so I wanna try and make sure this time!

Ok - does it have a power supply & can it run on batteries?

Can you power this off a normal pedal board power supply? Cheers
