Cort Launches the Artisan Space 5 Bass

[robassable]

How much do these typically weigh in at?

 

[InhumanResource]

Nordstrand big singles perhaps??

Waaaaay preferable to the MK1's. Preamp would probably have to go too, though!

 

[Mike Sorr]

Where are these available in the states? I'd love to get my hands on one.

Yep. I like the audere pro z and Aguilar obp3 preamps myself. I've been upgrading this bas in my head. Lol

This looks very good, but I still want a reissue of the Space Arrow

 

[Appogee]

Ibanez called. They want their EHB design back

 

[comatosedragon]

Wow. $800 sounds like a steal for all the bass you are getting.

 

[Mark Ambler]

Excellent value, fretwork really good, etc. If it was 19mm instead of 18mm spacing I'd have kept it.
Would make a great suitcase travel guitar, the 34" 24 fret neck is actually shorter than a Fender Mustang short scale neck, so would easily fit in a suitcase, (I really don't need to say you have to unbolt the neck from the body, do I?). Pickups are fine, I preferred the bass with the mid and treble rolled off as its quite a bright bass. If you're ok with 18mm spacing, it's a steal!

FYI 8lbs

I'd like to swap out the Bart MK1s in this with a pair of Nordstrand PolyVox pickups.

I've never pre-ordered a bass before this one. And of course, it got delayed. It is supposed to ship late August now, from the original mid-July date. Regardless, at that price point, I couldn't not give it a try.
