Mykesbass Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 (edited) SOLD [url="http://photobucket.com/mykesbassCort"]http://photobucket.com/mykesbassCort[/url] Having recently had my perfect bass built for me by Jon Shuker it is time to move on my Cort. This is one of the last of the Korean builds, has a fabulous white see through finish on ash body, Mighty Mite MM and Jazz pick-ups, 9v Active, loads of EQ control including mid boost switch. Licensed Hipshot machine heads, Neutrik locking jack input and strap-locks. I had Jon Shuker put an ebony fretless board on which has dot side markers and is currently strung with RotoSound pressure wounds to give a compromise between flats and roundwounds, something that works for me but isn't everyone's cup of tea. Sorry, but as Jon hasn't been able to supply me a case for the new bass yet this is being sold without one. Also, as it is a bit of an unusual bass I'd prefer not to send but for potential buyers to try before they buy. Current non customised Chinese versions of this bass are selling for about £450, over £100 less than the Korean models retailed at. I'm looking for £350 or may be interested in a lightweight head with valve pre-amp. Thanks, Mike Edited June 2, 2012 by Mykesbass
silverfoxnik Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 Great looking bass and with the ebony fretboard, I'd say this is a bit of a bargain! Shame I don't play fretless... Good luck with the sale!

BigBeatNut Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 Couple of questions: 1. What's the string spacing at the bridge, please ? 2. Can you run through the controls please. I see two switches, one of which is the mid boost, I guess, but also three knobs ... vol/vol/tone ? Thanks

[/quote] That would have been good... hopefully you've sold it now and I can stop thinking about trying fretless one more time..
Oscar South Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 This is beautiful! If not for the lack of hard case and 'try before you buy' I'd be all over it!
