Cort Artisan C5 Deluxe 5-String Bass – Candy Red

Performance & Value Packed

Cort C5 Deluxe 5-string bass sets a new standard. It surpasses any other bass we've had in the past at this price. Seriously!

Alder Tone

Poplar is a fine tonewood that is reminiscent of Alder in sonic character. So, this 5-string bass is full sounding with strong mids and a firm low-end that’s well balanced across the tonal spectrum, Poplar suits a variety of musical genres and playing styles for both electric guitars and basses.

Easy Access 24-Fret Neck

The combination of a Hard Maple neck and Jatoba fretboard provides tone balance and stability, as well as long sustaining durability.

Bartolini® MK-1 Pickups

Bartolini® MK-1 soapbar pickups provide plenty of punchy and warm mids along with transparent and brilliant highs for a superbly balanced sound.

Markbass® Active EQ Preamp

Markbass® MB-1 preamp provides this 5-string bass with a very natural and transparent boost that does not colour the organic nature or resonance of the instrument’s woods. The combination of crystal clarity and natural warmth exudes a passive feel with smooth lows, full-bodied mids, and bell-like highs.
