Question Cort Action V DLX vs Yamaha RBX375

Hi all, I'm a new member here, and I'm not entirely sure whether this belongs here or in the Basses forum, but anyway, here goes;
I'm looking to get a five string bass (have been playing a Yamaha RBX270 for close to three years now) and I really like the RBX series and have heard great things about the 375, but recently Cort have caught my eye and I like the look of the Action V DLX, and i am now torn over what to get...
I mostly play metal and hard rock, but I also like to play funk and a fair bit of slap, so basically I want an all round bass, and I'm wondering which bass would suit me best?
Also, what is the Australian RRP on the Cort, as well as any details anyone can give me about it (like how the pickups are, tightness of the B string etc)?
Cheers

Never tried that Cort model and unfortunately we're not a Yamaha dealer.

Contact us (via PM here or email/phone to the store) and we can help you find a bass that might fit your needs.

Im in brissy and recently got a fender squier 5er for the same amount as the 4 string. looks and sounds briliant and came perfectly setup from fender aswell. I only paid i think 400 from billy hydes cause the lady who served me rocks (she also plays bass) and gave me 100 off Great sounding bass. Only problem with it it as the same with all Fenders, they never go up to 24 frets which i love. think mines a 21. Still a great bass though especially for the money.
