Cort?

Sign in to disble this ad
Bought a Cort Action V a while back. I was just wondering if I made the right decision. I love it, it looks great, sounds alright for being $300 and fits my needs. I just want an opinion. And nothing like 'it sucks because it's not worth $600+'.

I had a Cort B4. It was awesome. I sold it to my dad because I had too many basses. I'm glad it's still in the family.

Cort makes instruments for MANY big names to put their logo on..See a great bass that's made in Korea? Very good chance it came from Cortek(Cort)..I have a Cort ABG that is down to the serial number the same as its Ibanez counterpart. It is a fine instrument,or I wouldn't keep it. Sounds like you made a good choice too.

I have a Cort B4FL that I got for $300 and think it's great. I think it compairs to some basses I've tried that cost twice as much.

What is it with all the B4s? I tried a B4 on clearance at a GC a few years ago and really liked it, great neck and versatile tones. Went back to buy it a week later, but somebody else had bought it.

I'm a fan.

B is Cort's version of the SR500, which is one of Ibbby's most succesful models - so yeah, it's a pretty damn good bass

Why are you looking to us to validate whether or not you made a good purchase? You already said you liked it, that should be good enough for you.

+1
If you "love" it, what other criteria is there?

Theyre bassically very good instruments imo. But its hard to find dealers for most of their lineup.
