Cort Freedom BassPublished on 01/06/07 at 04:41
(This content has been automatically translated from French)
Everyone knows I think Cort is Koreen. I will not talk because of the wood used as a guitarist that has never really interested, you just need the instrument is beautiful (wood) and it rings.

It is not too expensive and I found it fairly early, although heavier than other basses. I passed a few months of a Canadian brand (more expensive of course) and there was the slap. Today I think it's a shame to cut a tree for an instrument like this Cort.

UTILIZATION

Mine was very wrong (giving the open string with the tuner I'm completely wrong by pressing a note already in the 1 st box ...??) But the handle is straight. If anyone can explain, thank you (benes.twice @ club-internet.fr).

Beware of the knob ... wanting to remove the clear plastic on the plate I wanted to remove the potentiometer, and what happens? It has a dual function (volume and tone) is fixed on a thin stem and unscrew or pull in wanting to remove the thin rod breaks like glass. I exchanged the seller bass and he also said that this was not normal ... Thank you to the seller of Strasbourg, which I picked up this "thing" by taking another low. Low dream. On top of that the reference of my new bass (BG) for my initials ... I am a happy man ...

SOUNDS

I wonder what the purpose of the switch "active passive" because there is no real difference in sound. The sound slap quite well for the slap. It has three microphones. The sound is OK but no more. Group was not that at all.

OVERALL OPINION

I used 6 months. What I liked most is the price. What I like least is the weight, lack of character in the sound, the microphone is not great. The switch active / passive is useless (as said).

This kind of guitar is sold poorly (150 luthier told me)

This is a consumer product fast damage to trees. I do not referrer over this choice. (And am wary of what is now Chinese and Koreen)

Manufacturing Koreen
Signature Billy Cox
4 strings
2 JB pickups and a micro active PJ Custom made
color sunburst ash body
Silver maple neck
pearl inlays on the handle
chrome hardware
switch passive / active
3 dual-use knobs (tone and Volun)
24 frets

It's a bass that really gave me the urge to buy as soon as I saw it. I have 7 years, I find it still fun and nothing has moved on. Very good finish, no paint bavage and beautiful selection of wood (ash and maple found on some U.S. Fender model of good quality). And frankly, compared to an original form of pale copy of jazz bass or precision.

It's a bass that really gave me the urge to buy as soon as I saw it. I have 7 years, I find it still fun and nothing has moved on. Very good finish, no paint bavage and beautiful selection of wood (ash and maple found on some U.S. Fender model of good quality). And frankly, compared to an original form of pale copy of jazz bass or precision.

UTILIZATION

Contrary to the opinion of the mine below is just the beginning, it is certain that if the neck and the tailpiece was not set correctly it could lead to nothing!! :)
The neck is especially nice, quite late, and access to the latest hoops is no difficulty with its marked notch.
I play both finger, that pick. But watch out for the slap, as there are three microphones me I had to demean a little micro precision not to be generated, there is little loss of sound on this micro precision because it takes really good vibration of the strings.
It is not too heavy, unless my OLP MM3 low a stingray.

SOUNDS

It easily gets a good sound thanks to the potentiometer of each microphone. The range of sound is really wide, configuration 3 pickups has a lot to! 2 jazz bass and a precision.
I played with various rock styles (fusion, metal ..), but also jazz, variety ...
The output level is really high with the active position, and softer in the passive position.
Although the system consisting of a volume and tone knob can even sometimes be annoying especially if the knobs are poorly lubricated both running at the same time (so it must have been the instrument correctly adjusted for purchase!).
For me the knobs have never broken yet I've had seven years and I've done concerts with, in good and poor! Maybe on some there was a failure ...

OVERALL OPINION

I am a bass player and bass player training, this bass is really nice to play!
I have 7 years and I used it for concerts, rehearsals, but also records, and she never fails. I still use it but in addition to my U.S. Fender Jazz bass and my OLP MM3 custom.
This is a truly versatile bass, with a good range of sound! In addition it has a nice shape and original then what more!
