Did i do good?

What experiences have you guys had with these basses? I am looking for a musicmanish aggressive fingerstyle tone.

Cheers! Rob.

Yeah thats me. 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.

Yeah, most stainless steel strings should be alright, DR Lo-Riders or Fat Beams are my favourites on the Cort from experience (a bit heavier guage than what you play with, probably 100-40). I used to use EB super slinkys but they tend to go dead quite quickly.
