All user reviews for the Cort Action

View record ....

It lacks nothing, with an adjustable tone and 2volumes is perfect.

UTILIZATION

Channel trs enjoyable, Access in last fret is pretty easy.
Weight level, trs good. The sound is vraimenet well, its a good bass.

SOUNDS

I play a little every style of music, and it fits really has everything, ds that the amp is a low power (20W minimum)
Maybe that slaps the strings at certain times of the freight, but not often

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two years now.
Only weak point: occasionally, not sound comes out, probably just the cls tuning. Fortunately, it does not go to the amp.
This is my first model, so I can not really compare.
Trs good report quality price (250). The ropes get dirty rather quickly, but do not break soon, having broken my rope Premire a month ago, while I agree my bass a little too sharp and I like crazy slapper. Trs good for slap.
I would do without this choice hsitation.
Highly recommended, I do not see what more is needed on a low 4cordes ....

Made in Korea (we can not go wrong is described on the back of the head) ...
4 strings
24 cases,
Agathis body,
A micro and a PB JBPowersound,
Channel stocky,
Rosewood,
EB7 easel,
Black chrome hardware (mcanisme)
8 J'mets but remember that it does score 200 so we will not quibble on this point.

UTILIZATION

If the handle is enjoyable?! my rponse be yes! I would add that even this low is superb play. My bass player has a Warwick Corvette Standard 4c and us the handle of the Cort is flatter, smoother. CHAC in acute is simple ... (But you often play the frets 24me ??!!!
You return the slap (Aeroplane) without problem.
Weight: Wait ... I'm gonna weigh it Too lightweight for a PSE person! It is frankly lgre you want an easy scene for three hours with. No worries this level l.
L j'mets 10 because for a low price that the game is the comfort of nikel.

SOUNDS

To be ashamed, I am a guitarist, so at the sound, unfortunately I can not dwell on it.
All I can say is that I bought an amp with 15W Behringer Thunderbird (I deprecated as it is not allowed). The sound is ch .... However I can assure you, it makes trs trs well on my models. This is mainly why I bought it. But even this level it is not worth the bass from my bass player (not the same price either) ...
It may be snapping (for a good slapping), but also well rounded sound. But again, I'm not a bassist. I will ask mine to do a test and I complterai.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two weeks now (nonstop), I was behind in my tracks low.
What I like most is the handle end and smooth allowing a game with a lot of flexibility.

Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
Warwick Corvette Standard 4c (at a better but less well in comfort and certainly not the same price)
SQUIER Affinity P-bass (the level design is more that I like least in jouabilit it remains in its correct and, I would tell you because I did not dwell on it).

The report qualitprix quality is excellent but I got to see over time. And yes the wood works.
I do not have that choice would do since I have but I strongly advise all beginners (like me) who wants to practice on a low cot less good quality.

Low made in indonesia
Bolt-24 cargo
2 micro relatively "cheap", a jazz bridge and a precision to the handle
For settings There's a master volume and tone with microphone.
The finish is ok but nothing special.

UTILIZATION

The bass is light and well balanced, we just play a long time without breaking your back.
Access to treble is very good.
However I find the handle has been uncomfortable, he slips badly, and some notes vibrate, producing sound awful (in the acute around the boxes 15 to 17, perhaps a problem with my bass).
Otherwise, the settings microphones are effective and easy to use, however I find the volume knob is sorely lacking in progressiveness, there's a Pali between max and max moin that requires a lot of scrutiny for not to a sudden in his rule when playing (not very practical live without a volume pedal).

SOUNDS

The sounds may be that of mieu There's this low (for the price of course), I would argue that they are very good when you stay at the top of the handle. The bass is powerful, round and not too low drooling. As against the highs are rather poor, ill-defined and lacking punch. This is mainly low-end microphones and low quality of the handle.
I play punk rock show of the metal above the highs are so essential pa, but to play the Red Hot foot it pa, while the slap sound is satisfactory.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this bass for beginners, a use I found the quality / competitive prices.
She gave me taste for this instrument, she has served as the house band.
I do not really regret this choice and with the same budget I would repeat without hesitation.

See previous reviews ...

UTILIZATION

The neck of this bass is great ... In fact the only one I found is that most of Fender and Squier certain limit ... Nevertheless, it is fine and fast. Can be accessed relatively easily to acute but I think that pa ca be the determining factor for buying a bass if it was called an acute ... Level ergonomics is great. What I also very much at home is its lightness makes it very enjoyable to play on stage!

As for the sound it gets super easy

SOUNDS

I play a little bit of everything (from pop to metal ...) although the beast is not necessarily fishing could have a Jazz bass type or ESP, but it retains an enormous versatility ca slap either for or Thurs fingers ... Personally I play a Fender Rumble 100 and the rendering is quite impressive especially given the price of the engine of destruction that is in the hands. Before I was playing on a Novanex 50W and made his already not bad at all ... You can really pitch pbtenir any kind of stroke that may be low but his heavy metal style Gibson Thunderbird ...

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this bass used soon 4 years ago for € 180 with a cover and the jack. This is my first bass and frankly, I'm not part with it!

What I love is its lightness its versatility, its sound, its handle in short all ... the small negative c of my rope that borders a little buggers when I too ^ ^.
Honestly value for money is just insane. If you are looking for a bass to start without breaking the bank or risk being disgusted with the instrument after three days, I recommend this bass. Now if you really want to start on a bass with a pickaxe handle and a body of tennis racket in hand hurts and smells of sawdust, which seems close to you let go after three notes and issuing more cracks unclean as melodious sounds then go your way: you a quality instrument at unbeatable value for money.
With the experience I would do this choice with closed eyes it is simply magical ...

UTILIZATION

Handle very pleasant for me, not too big ^ ^
access to the last fret not bad
I find that ergonomic issues, Cort has been successful, cert must be better now but for the price c is more than adequate
We get a little greasy and heavy sound as well as sound asse "acute" and claquand, clearer

SOUNDS

For the moment I have just about everything, this is very low polivalente
against by the rub (at least for me) come from the middle rope (the largest) frieze much I do not know if it comes from the origins of string or bass or me lol
j have a 65w Ibanez SW sound is good but not vrement EXCELLENT
I like to have a well fat and deaf, but also a net well, slamming
this bass is very versatile (I know I repeat myself: p)

OVERALL OPINION

Its going to be six months I used the d in'm happy (although of course love chnager lol j)
c is a super low to begin very versatile but continued blah blah
Great Value (approx 200 eur)
yes I do it again this choice ^ ^

Corp: Agathis
Neck: Maple, Modern 'C' Shape
Handle width: 1F: 40mm / 24F: 64mm
Thickness handle: 1F: 20.5mm, 12F: 22mm
Fingerboard: Rosewood, 15 3 / 4 "Radius (400mm)
Fret: 24 / Large (2.7mm)
Nut: Graphite Black
Pickup: Power Sound P & Jazz

General advice:

- Very nice finish, with transparent paint that can see the wood structure.
- The volume control of 2 mics allows a wide range of sounds.

UTILIZATION

Channel to play nice, with quick access over the entire length. I have seen no other experience with low, I had some problems with the width of the handle, but from the reviews I found on the net, it is not too large.

The weight is plustôt lege, with a very good balance despite a handle long enough. The shape is nice, and allows quick access to the strings. According to some reviews on the Internet, it seems that the strings are set too high for some people. I have not yet done testing to see if it can go better descendants will the strings, but it's still envissageable.

Sounds can be set using two buttons volumes (one for each microphone), and can therefore have very different sounds. It can be also set the tone button. The sounds are very good, but it could possibly consider replacing microphones with active pickups have a sound more punch ...

SOUNDS

I bought this bass to see if the bass would please me, it satisfies me for now. I linked to a Laney R1, but not the best that the market does not defend this bad. Sounds can be very variable (for the micro P-Bass gives more fat than the micro J-Bass). Besides the volume control, there is also the tone controls. I confess that at the moment, I did not notice much difference with the tone, but I have not done hundreds of hours of games.

I like the way that sounds clear, not too fat and not too crystal-clear. Note that although the various notes, but we know it's still a bass that is played. It does parfaitmenet.

Again, one might choose to take plustôt active and passive pickups, but for passive pickups it does really well.

OVERALL OPINION

I do not use it for a long time, yet it makes me really want to play. I love the sound and finish it out.

For the choice, I was in my usual music store, and they advised me (for the price I asked). I also tried an Ibanez with a humbucker, but I clearly prefer to finish and the sound of the Cort. the Ibanez had a small defect in addition to handle missing aesthetics.

From the reviews I read, the quality seems to go with a good life. I would advise many people who start or want the bass to tries for its low price and quality / finish of the instrument.

I do not think that does make a real Musicman Stingray or Fender P-Bass it takes the shot, but the low end I think it will serve as one of the best.

Beware of the finishes frets: glue drooled over half does not inspire confidence manche.Ca

Edit post 09/04/2007: I went to the same store for a repeat test. The glue will drool over. I égallement control the instruments in two other stores and it is in order.

UTILIZATION

Note: I only tested the coffee shop in a volume of 1 / 4 of a Low Down Line 6.

The neck is super comfortable for the guitarist who I am. I do not have to stretch too much.

In terms of access to acute I can not tell you. I prefer to use the bass for bass so for now I only play on a rope that of Mi "very" serious.

The weight is excellent. I played with OLP Stingray type before which is really too heavy. No worries here.

Compared with the PLO, I find that the sound is a bit skinny. I thought it was an active but not at all. I should note, however, that I did not put the volume very loud because I did not want to disturb the other musicians in the store. Setting are not easy. I knew pa fair to the low purr) wish. The slap on the other hand are good but less than slamming OLP Stingray. The PLO finally slapper almost always the same
fingerstyle in simple two fingers.

Edit 9/4/2007: new test: I tested the bass at a volume of 1 / 4 of an HP Hartke Silver cone this weekend. It sounded really good. The bass was easy to adjust. The sounds come out alone. I do not have to do but slap prefer finger style. I also did a test on a PLO, an Ibanez and Cort Artisan RD NB 5. Chronologically it gives, Squier P-Bass Special, New Action, Artisan 5 NB, PLO and Ibanez RD. Resulting in the P-bass Special sounded good (a very flattering). The bass action is more c. ..... e than the first, with the NB in ​​five active there is no comparison (it sounds less), The PLO is too slender compared to the Action and RD 300 is really quite the issue.

I also had fun teasing the treble. Moral: ask a strap to play standing for more to lese. The strings do not curl. There was a good momentum of the bass action.

SOUNDS

I think this bass can be left in all styles of music but unable to turn the volume all the way I do not know if she purrs well.

Amp; Line6 Low Down modelle Rock.

Adjustments should be made on the amp, preferably

Edit post 09/04/2007: a hear all sellers in Brussels say that this bass is superb for the price you want to believe it. The best way to know if it's right for you is to try it. The last vendor I've seen (a guitarist) told me he wanted to put EMG pickups which would make great bass.

OVERALL OPINION

Here are some of my ideas on different low on price and brand:

215 EUR: Cort Action Bass: Good for by the seller and people. Sounds good and is cheap. We pay too much quality and name. Good bass groove to a max.

329 EUR: JB Squier Vintage Modified: it's a Hype. Sellers are not hot and there prefer the Squier Standard. Critically on the forums have inlays that are printed. I do not like maple fingerboard.

360 EUR: Ibanez SRX 300: beautiful low Dough Wimbish.Si genre with its active equalization it sounds better than Ibanez RD 300 I'm interested. Construction to better air

550 EUR: Cort Action Bass: A beast for its price. Active / Passive. It outperforms Mex Fenders.

650 EUR. Fender Mexico Standard JB: Very nice bass. The purists are soft compared to an All American JB but those with a Jazz Bass Deluxe US or JB Vintage say that American is not worth anything near. It is the eternal debate on the forums. I think it makes you want to play.

850 EUR. JB Classic Fender (Mexico): Wah is really cool.Sunburst and tortoise pick guard. It sounds great. It is better to buy in Germany because it costs only 729 EUR. So if you put in more than 29 EUR for the Fender Standard JB (700 EUR) was a low thunder.

If like me you're a guitarist and you do not want to ruin you to make your models, I think the New Action Bass is OK. With over budget I jump right on a Cort Artisan 4 or NB JB Classic (Mex). With all the material I have in my studio I can not (yet) allow me to take the top tout.Cette bass is a good compromise in low passive.

UTILIZATION

it is yours trs sangle.elle do well with a pic of the nose pa

SOUNDS

The sound is a little cold but it results in a versatile
I plugged into a peavey 20w as well say that it does no bass sounds good!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 8 but
its handle is pleasant trs
it sounds good value trs
especially if one does not know where to turn ..

On second thought, I would do but that choice by buying a bigger amp.
(At least 50W for repetitions)

Well not much to say, the low-end home Cort, orient beginners (what j'tais by buying it)

UTILIZATION

The handle is quite enjoyable. The strings are strong areas but not in the habit when Gnant. But I have a ibanez jou (I do not know the models) from a friend who did not see anything because it was so enjoyable to play, so I realize that A- bass has big limitations.
I've always had a lgre frieze on the ground (I do not settle t).
The strings curl easily if we do not blunder. In short, good bass study.
Access in acute is correct but I almost never uses the treble so I can not judge.
The weight is correct, I never had a problem at this level. The bass is pretty good balance, and therefore it does not address. Even when the handle is long so we quickly made a cum shot in the head guitarist if he does not pay attention

SOUNDS

I play rock and it is + - ok.
There are two microphones that can be set independently. One of the two buzz so I have to cut it all the time. The other works quite well for sounds dull, it's what I like.
Tone selector works well, better than the selectors of volumes (that work in almost all or nothing so they are sensitive).
I must say that this bass is as passive and is not great team in micro, it lacks terribly PCHE.

OVERALL OPINION

I for almost two years. I love him for his jouabilit even if I realize that there are better, especially its level.
It has a trs good quality-price ratio as it is difficult to find cheaper and as good quality. Cort General for trs are in good range of instruments.
Before buying, j'tais totally beginners. The seller had tried to pass a stagg active 2X heavy, ugly sound that had little more pchu.
Today I n'achterais recess over this low because if I had to buy one, I would have CRITERIA slction levs more, but I think I made the right choice When I started (without knowing whether a would please me).
Even when trying to see if an opportunity arises Submitted, there must be a lot of beginners APRS leaving two months, and redeem the instrument in good condition would be a good deal.

Made of Indonsie, 24 frets.
Micro bp neck and jb bridge, passive (1 volume for each pickup and Tone), Bolt.

UTILIZATION

The handle is more enjoyable and more comfortable than other low-lying same price.
For his ... Must rgler the amp, the possibilities with two microphones on a passive bass sound Reduces personally I do not like touching the Tone.

The rating reflects the price.

SOUNDS

I play on a peavey Microbass (20W) I get get good sound slap on the fingers and at play, she did not default to individuals and is great for its price, you can play any whether the it is not too demanding on the sound, much better than the other of the same low price.

OVERALL OPINION

I play it for 1 year (fawn intensive) I love the playability, the report qualitprix is, in my opinion unbeatable. I esseyer appear different from a lot of bass and you have double the price for the same comfort (at least).
I strongly advice those who are unsure about what style it will lead, it can reach all those who want or can not dpenser more for beginners.
In my case (I n'tait not put me on trs seriously and did not know what to play beginners) is an experience that I would do without a doubt.

See above.

UTILIZATION

The handle is stressful pleasant, I have tried other basses in this price range and nothing to do.
This bass is great for starters, it is very versatile and easy to ulitisation.
This gives a good sound easily.

SOUNDS

I've done rock and metal with it and works well but it also works for other styles of music is a very versatile model.
This gives her a good round easily, with a compressor is even better.

OVERALL OPINION

It is a low entry level for me the best quality / price ratio on the market.
I would definitely do it again this choice

Low Asian manufacturing
24 cargo, 1 micro style jazz and a precision style handle

UTILIZATION

Channel pleasant, easy access to acute.
Low light enough anyway, probably due to its patitesse I think compared to other basses.
we come to get a sound, good sound is another thing ...

SOUNDS

It is suitable for all kind of music of course if you're not too particular about the sound ...

OVERALL OPINION

I used low cete me three months and was quickly separated. I could not make it sound like I liked.
what I liked most about this bass: the handle
what I liked least: everything else
I bought this bass on a whim (I had sold my tobias) because I wanted to get back ...
with the experience I would not have made that choice.

Cort Action: made in Korea I think, 24 frets, 2 pickups (a JazzBass in the bridge position, in a precision sleeve). Note that they give her everything is okay.
For contrl, there is a volume for each pickup and a tone gnral. It provides a wide range of sound.
The handle is ass off to the body, what makes it more difficult to CASC acute severe rope (even if AC is anything to go )

UTILIZATION

To acute Accs not too complicated.
I find the weight support during a long time: I often play several hours without stop me and I did not hurt the shoulder. The shape is placed well on the body.
To find a sound that is as easy as pie: you take the neck pickup for a sound serious or bridge pickup for mediums (or 2), and the tone to give slamming. There's even a little when BMOL: buttons mics are a little too on / off: if you put them on "9" Plutt that "10" sound is half as strong. AC prevents making a serious balance-treble.

SOUNDS

I play mostly rock - hard rock, metal and punk with, and she can do everything without problem (I have a bonprampli: Behringer Bass V-amp pro).
So I use a behringer prampli (when I need a distortion, if I pass by dirrect amp) and an amp Ashdown MAG C115-300
The sound is quite varied: the neck pickup for rock, funk to the bridge, not to give too much strotypes ^ ^, and treble tone to inject
I prefer the sound is the neck pickup tone and substance, the tab, and the question of taste, I do not like the mids out of the bridge pickup.

OVERALL OPINION

Chlo I bought (his name) on e-bay in March 2007 with prampli behringer 250 euros. Quality-price ratio 10/10!
I think if I had the same level as when I bought it (level 0 ) Knowing this bass, I would do without hesitating that choice, and I intend to keep still for a while, if in the meantime I do not become a billionaire, you can always dreaming <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt="" />

<edit>
I bought a new low in the high-end kind, but I intend to keep this all the same low (change the neck pickup and dfretter). I always advise beginners who seek a low solid and reliable.
</ Edit>

Made in Indonesia
24 frets
1 microphone-type precision, type 1 micro jazz
three knob one for micro precision, one for the mic jazz, one for the severe acute
Bolt
a very nice build quality I model my wood color, splendor!

UTILIZATION

The handle is very comfortable to play, rather fast, but it has become much broader basis, though it is slightly easier to play standing, well balanced, but she sat for the game tends to drag because the edges are rounded, the microphone precision fishing of thunder, but the mic jazz I can feel a small-but the two combine it grows very well, I found myself quickly with the sound I would have been 10/10 but I Microjazz finds a way!

SOUNDS

I play rock, metal, blues, yes, so there are no problems, she said this, and for the slap, I play with the microphone volume precision microwave background is the jazz 3 / 4, the j got a great sound to play everything, I use a very old multi-effect guitar Krog an A5 (I'm usually guitar) I do not use the microphone only jazz, but I still put 10/10, if not in amps I played on a marshall jtm 30 to change lamps, is on my table with a box amplified HQ-Power is the Logitech X-210 hp

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one month after a low in Alba (very good bass but lack of big fish) I tested several low but far too expensive for my budget for 194 euros there is an incomparable value for money, a easy game, a good "potato" mounted with very good basic rope, flawless finish, what more, well certainly not high-low range, it is passive, but made a small experiment with, is there you will see, is not for nothing that in cort ibanez do is make the other!
then yes I would do the same choice with experience
