Cort Artisan Space 5 SDB

This bass looks, plays, and sounds just as advertised. It arrived safely and the setup was perfect. The action is low with no buzz. I played it at band practice for two hours the night it arrived and it performed great. It is light and has no neck dive. I also like the light weight gig that comes with it. This one is a keeper. It was a pleasure doing business with Thomann for the first time. The estimated wait time was accurate and shipment was fast as soon as it was in stock.

I bought the bass for 3 hour giggs where an 11 lb bass is just too much. This bass has it all, light weight, pro sound and a great look. It has a killer finish, no head dive and smooth and level frets including a zero fret so open strings are a delight. Some people have comments about bart PUs as a selection however in this case the PUs with the pre amp provide everything from crisp highs to tight mid and bass combinations. I can get everything from "modern" to classic tone .The neck is really a joy to play with the right feel and string spacings. I think it would still be a great buy at twice the price especially as it come with a really nice bespoke gig bag. Only critisim, the facory setup was a little on the safe side, neck relief and intonation were good however the action out of the factory was a little high even for a new instrument. The bass comes with a full set of hex including one for the metal control knobs so a 15 min set up got the bass playing exactly the way I like it. I have no reason to promote the bass, just wanted to highlight this instrument as a great option for the musician playing a lot of giggs, I have looked around and thi s is a great solution at probaly half the price of similar headless options. I have played the Cort A series basses and I believe this compares in quality and durability so all round one of my better decisions!

Ho acquistato questo strumento con l’obiettivo di ottenere uno strumento maneggevole e leggero. Mi ha sorpreso per la qualità, il bilanciamento ed infine il suono. Il manico e’ spettacolare , con 7 sezioni di legno , tastiera comoda e scorrevole. Acero roasted bellissimo. Preamp e pu Bartolini funzionano alla grande. Era il suono che volevo. Comodo anche l’accesso rapido alla batteria. Rispetto ad altri blasonati marchi che non cito. Questo modello qualità prezzo è il migliore. Ah dimenticavo . Custodia bellissima.
