This is a fantastic bass for the price! I was drawn to the headless design and finish initially but after picking it up to feel how light it was, well balanced on the leg and tone control, I was sold. This bass thrives on a light touch playing style but still allows you to dig in nicely. The volume difference when switching between passive and active is fantastic with little difference in volume when eq is flat and not overwhelming when eq is turned up.
Love the bass, Dave was extremely knowledgeable and great to deal with. I didn’t know how great Cort basses were but after a few minutes trying this bass at the store, I was done and had to get it.
Great service, as always from Club Bass. This Cort has to be the bargain of the century. Just great in every way from setup to frets and that mighty preamp. A modern bass producing modern sounds.
I just took possession of my Cort GB-Fusion 5 yesterday and spent quite a few hours with it. It’s exceeding my expectations so far, with a super-comfortable feel and great sound, both passive & active. The weight of the bass is lighter than I expected and it’s perfectly balanced – no neck dive at all. I’ve never played a maple fretboard before so it’s a lot brighter than I’m used to, but there’s a great range of tones available. The neck has a great satin finish and really comfortable profile. They did an amazing job on the frets – no rough edges at all. The string spacing is a comfortable 18mm, even coming from my MVP4-62. The neck heel is nicely rounded and makes it easy to get to the top range. Dave did an amazing setup on this and it plays really easily. Both the active & passive settings sound great, and the 3 band EQ gives good control over your sound. It’s a solid instrument and an amazing deal for the price.
This cabinet makes loading and unloading a breeze. People can’t believe how lightweight it is and it’s fun to show them how you can lift it with one finger. Sounds good and it can handle plenty of wattage, more than enough for my needs.
The clarity promised in the product description is no idle boast. This cabinet easily cuts through the mix at all frequencies. Even the low “B” on my 5-string is more pronounced. Being an older player, the weight difference is a considerable advantage. Pairing it with the ultra-light GR One800 amp head makes set-up and take-down a breeze. It is difficult to find any disadvantage when compared to my old rig. Wish I had done this years ago.
The Elrick strings are on two of my five string basses. I’ll be placing an order for a four string set. Dave’s knowledge, expertise and customer service are superb. Thank you.
I was intentionally waiting to write this review so that I’d spend as much time as possible with the ReVolt for Bass. I love this unit – it’s exactly the upgrade to my signal chain that I was hoping for. I’ve been a minimalist with regards to pedals and still find the multi-fx units a bit too daunting for me. The simplicity of having 3 very usable channels is great. I’m using the clean channel in most situations and it gives me the Ampeg tone I’m used to, with a lot of warmth. The grit channel is really good, nice & even and very listenable. It’s a great option for cutting through the mix. Even the modern distortion channel is very usable, but in my case it really is more suited for specific atmospheres I want to create. The FX loop is great and allows me to integrate the pedals I’ve been collecting. I’m looking forward to using the ReVolt in both the 4-cable method with my amp and as a preamp to my amp as well. I’m extremely happy with this purchase and love using it with all my basses.

Pleasure purchasing and interacting with Dave! The Tonex One has been fantastic!
