Korean manufacturing dating back to 1997/98, therefore old range, the stock has no movement of the plane on the angle.
Ash body (I think) covered with a thick plastic coating, wenge neck, rosewood 24 fret button, 2 microphones myghtimite, fittings gray matt, easel indestructible, certainly very good.
4 knobs, 1 volume, 1 balance, 1 serious and 1 treble.
Weight: 4.2 kg

UTILIZATION

Comfort rather surprising for a low low end of range, so is very accurate as the mid well as percussive slap.
The neck is well defined but slightly thicker qd even with very good access to acute, not especially heavy I would say lightly.
You can find the sound quickly and was also a good range of sound for a bass of this small size, it's pretty amazing.

SOUNDS

I was using at the time when I played the funky pop and it was pretty good.
It can vary quite a bit with the balance sounds microphone (with the neck pickup was almost the sound of a Fender Precision).
Lacks a little power in the bass due to ptits pickups, treble not do too badly.
I use it more so since I changed maintenand range (WW Zikmane and Spector) I'm more funk metal so it has to send.

OVERALL OPINION

I recommend this bass to anyone who wants to get the 5 string, a very good playability, good sound for a lil almost derisory price approx. 500 eur.

In short, a super mega value price / performance.

Cort, a brand that builds up is not expensive and it starts to ring ...
