Traded a couple low end 6 bangers for this big active pupped thing -- love the neck ---
cant find much info other than this

feels a LOT like a Cort product (no issues with the IMHO) plays and sounds REALLY nice ---just curious if any info out there.

SORRY --- pic--- just got home busy playing it!

They were decent basses but just never really took off. I believe they had a higher end model with an aluminum neck of some sort. Most likely built in the Cort factory.

Hmm, Maybe search for Vaccaro. I know Hartke & Vaccaro teamed up on some stuff.

 

[BamaBird]

INTERESTING--- thank you both for the info -- its a decent enough beastie

I bought a Hartke/Vacarro Bass Kit and built it once. It had an aluminum neck. It looked exactly like this.

 

[BamaBird]

I think Vacarro was making the AL. neck ones but the one in post 2 (very Warwick-ish) Im thinking came from overseas --Unsung--Cort--World Musical -- along those lines.........

Looks like a fine bass. Nothing fancy but solid. I approve.

THats a very accurate description JimmyM.
