Never played a Cort? We bet you have….as well as building their own ‘Cort’ branded instruments Cort build basses for people like Fender, G&L, Ibanez, Breedlove etc…infact, for many global brands - since 1960.
The Artisan ‘Custom’ models are Corts premium basses packed with high end features for relatively little outlay given whats on offer. Playability is superb - straight out of the box! - and build and finish are exemplary due to their very stringent QC systems.
This is a thoroughly modern bass in all respects and access to the 24th fret is excellent courtesy of the through-neck design. The bridge can be strung thro’-body or top loaded. The 3 band eq delivers a wide range of clear, articulate active tones with tight bottom end, punchy mids and biting, but never harsh, highs.
A Touring-Pro level bass that delivers powerful bottom end and low-mids and bright treble. Highly recommended…
