Cort Elrick JP5 5 String Bass FS - Best Offer!

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey everyone! I recently picked up this bass but I realized that pretty much everything I play only requires the good old 4 string. So unfortunately I need to let this bass go! I will only be listing this for about a week and then it's off to eBay, so now's the time to get it!

Here's some specs:
· 35” Scale
· 19mm string spacing at the bridge
· 24-fret bolt-on neck maple neck with rosewood fingerboard
· Swamp Ash body with Flame maple top
· Bartolini MK1 passive pickups
· Batrolini MK1 active preamp with bass/mid/treble boost and cut with a preamp bypass (passive)
· Fishman pop-up battery compartment
· EB10 One Piece Bridge (Hipshot Licensed)
· Hipshot Licensed Tuners
Comes with pictured hardshell case

Issues (see pictures): There are two nicks in the head stock, the active/passive pull switch doesn't work (easy fix I assume) and there is a crack in the finish near the bottom of the body.
I bought the bass like this and the bass still plays great regardless!


Price: $500 shipped/pp'd OBO (Just offer!)
NOW $400shipped/paypaled!
Trades - Carvin BX500 + cash!
4 string (fretted or fretless) - Lakland, Fender P's, or Spector (czech made)
Feel free to offer others but I am partial to maple or ebony fretboads and greens, reds and blues

Here are some pictures:





Headstock nicks:


Finish crack:





Thanks for looking and offer up!

Man ... I just dig that green.

Sweet deal on this one ... a couple quick upgrades and you can have yourself an Elrick on a budget. Whoever snags this one will be a happy camper. Makes me wonder why I got rid of mine ... oh yea ... GAS.
