FS: P-Bass copy, Black 'n' Maple, CHEAP!

rojo412 · #1 08-22-2011, 04:06 PM

Up on the chopping block today is a bass that is neither near nor dear to me. It's a bass I bought for my girlfriend's nephew to learn on, but he liked another bass I had better and now, this has to go!

CORT P Bass copy
Made in Korea
I'm guessing early 90s
1-5/8" nut width
Classic feeling neck (fat and chunky!)
Has a micro-tilt adjuster, skunk stripe, and some birdseye
Weighs 9-10 lbs
Schaller Licensed Tuners
Electronics are quiet and functional
Has massive output.
Lots of dings, chips, and dents (former owner was into metal)
Perfect for a beginner or a backup or a relic project.
I cleaned the hell out of this bass when I got it, so the neck is nice and polished, the pots were cleaned out, and it's ready to play. The action can be set lower, if needed, but it was for a beginner, so it's a little high. The truss rod works fine, though.
It's also intonated.
Sorry, no case or bag available.

For sale only. I hate trading (unless local!).

$90 obo + shipping. Paypal ONLY.
I'll go international if you want, but it will be in pieces, due to size restrictions.

I had one of these briefly. Cort makes some really good stuff and at this price point you can't go wrong!

Every Korean made bass I've had was a pretty darn good player. I certainly don't need another P bass in the collection, but here's a bump for a good deal

Thanks, man!
I will definitely say this about this bass: It's put together very well.

I've had Squiers and other cheap, cheap basses before. You see a lot of corners cut in some basses. Chintzy hardware, crappy wood, and lack of structural integrity... but not here!
The tuners are on par or better than MIM Fender, the bridge is solid, the body is full-sized, the neck has birdseye! This bass easily matches the quality of a lot of MIM Fender stuff, it just happens to be cheaper and a bit beat up.
I wish I liked the P Bass, because this makes for a great player's bass.

Offers? PM! Include a zip code.

I had a Cort P that was excellent.... This price is great, and I'm not too far from you in Cincy.... Verrrry tempting..

Neck pocket dimensions were requested, so here they are for anyone to see:

At the 20th fret, it's 61 mm or 2-7/16", give or take a few microns.
At the 15th fret (beginning of the pocket), it's 2-5/16ths or 58.5mm.

In the (neck) pocket bump!
