Shockwave Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 I know a guy here is selling one of these, But i just had to post here. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260253728731&_trksid=p2759.l1259"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...sid=p2759.l1259[/url] Did i do good? What experiences have you guys had with these basses? I am looking for a musicmanish aggressive fingerstyle tone. Cheers! Rob. Quote
ped Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Yes I think so. Cort basses are fantastic quality and individual, too. I am sure you could sell it for the same, if not more, if you ever needed to. Quote
budget bassist Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Based on the fact that the guy on here is trying to get £400 for his i think you got a pretty good deal. Quote

Cort's RRP is like £900 so i'd say £150 is an amazing deal. It doesn't sound quite like my musicman but the slap and wah switches, two pickups and 3EQ offer a wide range of tones/sounds. It's a very comfortable bass when setup properly and is fast and easy to play. Just one thing, the sound of the bass is largely dependant on what strings you've got on it, so you might have to experiment with different strings for a bit. Quote
Shockwave Posted June 21, 2008 Author Posted June 21, 2008 Well i usually use Stainless steel 90-30 roundwounds. Quote

I used to use EB super slinkys but they tend to go dead quite quickly. Quote
