Mike Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 (edited) Hi all, The time has come do move this Cort on - the only reason being that I've bought a slightly different model that suits me a little better (24 frets). I can honestly say that this has to be the best deal on a bass that I've seen. It can hold its own against basses three times the price, in my eyes. And that's not the normal selling BS!! It has MM/J pickups, with a Fishman preamp. Active, with bass & treble stacked knob as well as master volume and pickup blend. It's a nice light swamp ash body with a rosewood fingerboard. The nut is graphite and machineheads licenced hipshots. The neck is SO comfy, something very important to me in a 5 string. Quite shallow, very playable. Here are the pics!

I can ship (there's no case though, unfortunately) but it will be around £25 fully packed and insured. I'm in Chelmsford, Essex, Near the A12 which isn't far from the M25.

josh3184 Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 that is chuffing gorgeous. Lucky right handed gits...
BassBunny Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 That is an amazing price for an awesome Bass. Cort make G&L, Ibanez, Lakland and some Fender guitars and they are unbeatable value. Someone grab it before i convince myself I need another bass.......
Mike Posted August 12, 2008 Author Posted August 12, 2008 Cheers guys. I think this is an awesome price. I think a 4 string just went for £200 on eBay. If I can't give it away here, I'll have to go make a profit on ebay
