Bass in a pawn shop

[Gianni "Orlandez" Orlati]

My Ibby SR-405 is from the Cort Korea factory and is a nice bass.

My Cort GB94 is a MF of a bass and it comes from Cort’s Korean factory... superior quality for a very competitive price!

The CN serial number throws me off, because I thought CN = Made in China.
If it's Korean, it should be a top-notch build, so if you end up paying full price (you shouldn't) & love it, no harm, no foul.

I can confirm there were Korean CN serials in the 90's.

Worth it, especially if you can get the price down a bit.

So then you don't think it's worth it at that price?

Plan on trying to go back on my next day off. As far as I can tell looking at serial number decoders CN2 would be a 92 Korean from the Cort factory

If that pawn shop gets decent traffic, it will be long gone.

Its a small shop and the last 2 times I have been there was only me and one other person! Friday is my day off AND payday!

Good luck!
Every time I went home to think about it & then made up my mind to go back for that bass or guitar, it was long gone.
The good deals tend to...
but maybe no one else will notice the value in this one

Yes it is, but always try to haggle a bit, never hurts. Just in case there's something wrong with it, then you won't feel so bad.
