J-Bass Modernized
Cort GB-Modern 5-string bass is top shelf boutique design, build, performance, and has features usually only available on considerably higher priced bass brands. It's jaw-dropping how good this bass is. We're blown away by it.
Cort has made obtaining a killer boutique bass accessible!
Lightweight, Boutique Build
GB-Modern 5-string bass is surprisingly lightweight, and made for greater comfort and enhanced playability while reducing fatigue. The body is cleverly designed to be light without physically tempering the body. The Maple body core is paired with lightweight Paulownia wings, and then is covered with gorgeous Poplar Burl on the top side and White Ash on the back. The result is a combination of great tone woods that is excellent both sonically and aesthetically.
Roasted Maple Neck and Fretboard
By treating the Maple in an oxygen-free oven at a high temperature, the wood stabilizes and develops a golden-brownish look for enhanced stability as well as a more vintage type of look and a big bolder tone.
Nordstrand® Big Single Pickups
Nordstrand® Big Single is a single coil that has a large magnet load and winding that fills up the entire space of its bobbin. Because of the super packed coil, these pickups produce monster tone in both active and passive modes.
MarkBass® MB Preamp
The Markbass preamp tone control circuit provides this 5-string bass with a unique and rich response along with a very clean and focused bass tone.
