Thank you for this, its helped me. In fact I just got back from the shop and took home the Cort C4 Plus ZBMH, my ever first bass (heck I am almost 50 and this is my first ever musical instrument)
I feel like Cort Basses have so much character and are so great. Got a B4 that I used exclusively for 3 years until I upgraded my own "parts" bass. I am in love with their neck profiles. 38mm is where it's at.
Welcome To The Family!!! I Bought A Cort B5 Artisan Plus Last August AND I LOVE IT! I Recently Sent It To A Guitar Repair Shop To Get A Custom Paint Job & Setup And The Owner Told Me That Everyone Who Came To The Shop, Inquired About It. I Have An Ibanez SR505 Bass As Well (Bartolini Pickups On Both, Each One Different Sound). Quality? HELL, YEAAH!!! The Cort Factory Builds The "Boutique Line" Of Basses For A Great Number Of OTHER Instrument Companies!!!! Cort's Own Boutique Line Of Basses Are PHENOMENAL, As You Will Discover. 😁
The tone does sound highly processed and scooped on here but that's Patrick's way of doing things on these videos. Never just a bass plugged into a d.i. clean or into an amp
@@kalidesu the stock pickups are shit. Always have been. I have an older 1991 artisan B5 and the stock mighty mite pickups and preamp were terrible. They sounded weak, processed, muddy, and didn't let the bass speak. Replaced with EMG 40Jxs and the BTS system and I couldn't be happier. Can finally hear the wenge neck growl away. Mark Michelle uses them on his warwicks and the emgs don't take away from the warwick sound at all. Other options are Delano SBCs, Bartolini singularities, and Nordstands. Get the stock mighty mites or Bartonlini MK1s and the preamp out asap and your Cort will immediately sound like the high end bass it wants to be.
To me Cort basses remind me of Arias in the 80s and 90s. By that I mean overlooked and under the radar for the most part, but fine quality instruments that once you play them you love them! 😊👍
I have an aria pro ii magna 5 string jazz bass and apart from a weird 15 mm string spacing and the pickups not being suited for drop g it’s pretty good really good tuning stability
Your're right. It almost looks like an Aria SB body would slide right over it and you wouldn't notice the difference. 'Cause basically...there ain't none!
The Bartolini MK-1 are IMHO pretty good pickups, in a pragmatic way. Yes, they sound a bit boring when you play alone, but in a band setting they shine :) Take the Cort to a rehearsal or gig and you will be surprised! They do not have a ton of character, but they work in every environment, every genre and with every amp. The Bartolinis didn't do it for me, either, in the beginning. But I've learned to really appreciate them.
Indeed, MK1s are really great in a mix, even at lower volume settings the bass doesn't disappear. I fell in love with B4, and boughr B5 also. They're one of the most beautifully and effectively built basses, especially ergonomics wise - it feels like they're a natural extension of my body - check out my cover clips
I think that it's also has something to do with the preamp. The markbass preamp doesn't sounds good to my ears. The mk1 pickup sounds great paired with the mk1 preamp.
I just bought this identical bass. It’s comfortable to sit and stand with. Cort paid attention to the ergonomics. The machine heads are great quality and the overall design and quality down to the finish is really really nice. It’s more than I expected at this price point. The pickups in my opinion are great. They provide a variety of tonal options that make for a really versatile instrument. No complaints here I’m a believer, if you’re looking for a really great quality bass you should seriously consider the Cort C4.
I've the same with Bartolinis! They just never quite cut it for me. Having said that, I'm love the look of the new Natural B5 Element 🤤 Amazing video as always good sir 👏
@@Metalbass1979 I havent tried those tbf. I've just never been blown away by any so far. Will check them out! New pickups are the last piece of that puzzle 😇
Nice groove Patric! loved it! I have owned a few basses including a 70's Vintage Epiphone. I now got the C4 and I just love it! Great look and tone and also weighs lighter that my other basses. It's rocks especially in active mode using the pre-amp for slap techniques. Worth every penny for sure
Bought a used one today; still got the stickers on the preamp; new strings and I can tell you this is a legend; the body feels so good and smooth and through a markbass tubeamp it sounds great
Polyphia is a primarily instrumental progressive rock band based in Dallas, Texas that formed in 2010. Polyphia first achieved mainstream success when the guitar play-through of "Impassion", from the EP, Inspire, went viral on TH-cam. The band continues to grow in popularity and have gone on several national tours sharing the stage with the likes of progressive metalcore giants such as Periphery, Between the Buried and Me, and August Burns Red. Polyphia has featured artists such as Jason Richardson (ex-Chelsea Grin, ex-Born of Osiris, ex-All Shall Perish and All That Remains), Aaron Marshall (Intervals), Mario Camarena (Chon), Erick Hansel (Chon), Yvette Young (Covet), Rick Graham, Nick Johnston, Jakub Żytecki, Lewis Grant, Ichika Nito and Mateus Asato.The band states that their influences come from artists of all genres. The group started out with a heavier shred-oriented sound but has since matured into a more melodic-focused band. When describing the album, Muse, Timothy Henson says that the primary inspiration comes from pop and rap music as to not draw influence from other artists of their genre.
I got a cort B4 11 years ago not too dissimilar to this. Cost me £500 pounds and it has always stayed in tune no matter the weather or the playing. The neck is my favourite thing. Especially at the nut. No bass will ever have a better neck but I do now prefere the old retro p bass or j bass pick ups. Cort is awesome and I'll always keep the one I have even if it isnt what sound I'm after now. Always served me well gigging.
I’ve been playing Cort 5 string basses for a few years now, I even have the economy line Action V plus basses, upgrade to a A Hipshot A style bridge, heavy metal knobs and tuners....these basses play phenomenal for the $$$! The body is ergonomic and neck is so playable it’s easy to log hours in without fatigue. Thanks for finally reviewing a Cort bass!!!
@@RadityoPramAdi just know ahead of time if you buy one, you may have to do some fret leveling and truss rod setup right out of the box...because the come from overseas kinda wonky, but once setup they are hard to put down. This is mainly the economy line the Action series, the Artisan series is so much better right out of the box in my opinion.
A cort A4 was my first bass from back in 2005. I love the headstock notch, because it betrays the woods in the instrument in a uniform way model to model. Easier to compare what's going on.
Cort should have definitely sent you the B or A series rather... Love my B5 Plus! Also not a fan of the Bartolini MK1 pickups though, weakest point of these basses for sure. I'm going to upgrade them later this year. They have a new model, A5 Ultra Ash, it has some insanely good specs! Fishman pickups etc. You should definitely check that one out. Glad you finally did a review on Cort though! Congrats on 40k subs too!
I used to sell Cort products back in the day when I had a store, I liked the basses back then too. Guitars... nah not so much but I am not a guitar player. Unfortunately I had a hard time moving them because the name on the headstock did not say Fender or Squire on them. I found the Cort at the entry level market to be superior (IMO) to at least Squire, Epiphone, Dean at the time. I am glad they are starting to make some inroads into the market. Some day I would like to get the new B4 Element. If you are not into Bart pickups, I would like to see you load it up with Nordstrand DC4 pickups and give another video.
I have one with the zebrawood finish. I prefer the ovalkong. I have a problem with the tuners when transporting in the gigbag, but while playing, there is no problem. It does sound better in Patrick's hands than in mine. Nice video.
I can still remember borrowing a friend's Cort B5 plus approx. 10 years ago. That bass had lots of Mojo. Unfortunately I couldn't persuade him to let me keep it.
I've had a Cort Action 5 for 20 years and its been great. I had a B4 for a few years and really regret selling it. Just upgraded to a A5 plus scms and its the money. I quite like the mk1 barts tbh.
That first shot looked ao damn cool I rewatched it 10 times. When I get better at playing bass this bass is definetly one I will look out for if I buy a new one. I just dig the look so much!
Thank you for this review. It is really welcomed. I am in the market for my very first bass, and there are soooo many great options out there. Unfortunately not all of them are available in South Africa. Of everything i have had a look at, i keep coming back to Cort because of availability and BASS for buck. I would really love it if you could review the Cort B5 Plus AS, a bass that i have had my eye on for quite some time now. That piece you played at 6:30 ... Totally Awesome dude !!! When i eventually will get my own bass, i would love to learn to play that piece. It's got that Maroon 5 ft. Red Hot Chili Peppers ring to it. Again, thank you. I really enjoyed it immensely. 😎🎸👌
I was a bit confused during the wood section. I can see the maple core, but what else am I looking at? Is that the ovangkol, the mahogany, or the walnut? (Wings = Walnut back, mahogany center, ovangkol top?)
6:30 What are you playing here? So nice! Is that from a song or just jaming? I just ordered a Cort A4 Ultra Ash and I am looking forward to its arrival!
Wow! Ive been looking at your channel for a while AND am currently saving up for a cort! Really surprising to see that you are reviewing the brand! What are your thoughts so far? Are cort basses acceptable in modern music?
I have the Cort Action dlx 4 string with the same preamp, I've been really happy with it in terms of bang for buck. I am just about to try my new dödsmaskin II pedal by Pepers pedals with it and I'm pretty excited, it's basically a b3k clone with Pepers pedals version of the b7k preamp
actually, mk1 isn't real bartolini pickups, they just have word "bartolini" on the pickup covers. But Cort make a good instruments for they prices, it's true.
Better springing for the B series as that has licensed Ultralites. Even better try and find an older Korean Cort, sold off my B5 as it wasn't as good as my ancient MIK C5P.
Cort basses are great. they wipe the floor with ibanez's and Jacksons and the like....which i guess cort make...lmao. But seriously i have a b5 artisan, and i will never buy another 5 string. its got the best of everything on it, and plays like a dream, you dont have to fight it.
Hi Patrick. Just bougth a Cort C4 bass. Unfortunately it comes with some finishing issues. I would like to know if it is normal for this bass that the neck near the the pickups is slightly away from the body? Hould apreciate very mutch your feedback. Thank you very much!
One day you should try to play the Bach prelude in C Major and move your head like if you were into Suicidal Tendencies, I'm pretty sure you can do this easily ! :-)
I own a Cort and it's a phenomenal bass but I'd go in this case with the Yamaha. First they make great instruments and second the 600 line just looks gorgeous.
Hello guys, - I've just bought one of these recently and its bad ass, but am I tripping, or does that the 3 band eq not work in passive mode? Does it only work in active mode? As I've never owned a active mode bass before it's confused me, and I feel like a twat - anyone who can answer this question would be appreciated- cheers

Glad to see you trying out a Cort. I find that body shape super comfortable and balanced.
I have B4 and B5, those with more jazz-like hump below the bridge. And yes, the balance is perfect, and neck shape and wood are awesome
I noticed that your bass playing has improved since I first watched you!! Nice work bro

Love that Bass, looks smooth and eloquent. Shame there is no left handed version, their range is pretty limited here.

Cort's are really great. And these new C and B basses are basically cheaper Ibanez SR 500-600-700 models
Oh .. you mean cort C = Ibanez sr 500 ?
I think material and pickups very similar between two bass

The problem is the gig bag.
I needed this review, been curious for a while
I can still remember borrowing a friend's Cort B5 plus approx. 10 years ago. That bass had lots of Mojo. Unfortunately I couldn't persuade him to let me keep it.
I bought one of their lower end Basses about 2 years ago , the neck is butter
I've had a Cort Action 5 for 20 years and its been great. I had a B4 for a few years and really regret selling it. Just upgraded to a A5 plus scms and its the money. I quite like the mk1 barts tbh.
I used to have one of the Artisan A4+ that I absolutely loved. Hell of a lot of bass for the money.
It's worth noting that the hardware on the higher end models gets nicer, the one I had came stock with all Hipshot stuff.
That first shot looked ao damn cool I rewatched it 10 times.
When I get better at playing bass this bass is definetly one I will look out for if I buy a new one. I just dig the look so much!
same as the tobias toby 4 neck thru 20 yrs ago. got one love it
The cut away on the headstock is the letter C for Cort.
I had an Ibanez SR500 with Bartolinis. I think they were MKs as well. Unfortunately I got to agree that they lack something... 🤷♂️
I've got cort Arona 4, is a collab with sandberg, I really love it.
That is a great bass!
Amazing! that's the real speed not increased? You're master of speed!
The 1st Bass I had was a Cort P-bass and I F*#king loved it
Great for jazz and funk. It's good for rock/metal if a good distortion pedal in placed in front of the amp to give the signal some oomph.
upper middle is strong in this one. Build is good. Modern contempory sound
I'm with you...Bart Mk1's are a big "no thank you."
Why? I'm generaly interested. Had them on Ibanez SR505 and Cort A4 and they were cool, a bit to bright and gritty.. but generaly okay pickups
Came for the review, stayed for his playing.
Some nice basses! I did lol when you said they did give me this bass and pay me to do the review but I have no obligation to them 😂
I think its good - dedicated ensemble bottom end bass with contemporary tone

I have the 5 string one, i put it a pair of Nordstrand Big Singles and dayum, sounds amazing
That's the way barts are designed. They're like a blank canvas to allow a good preamp to add color.
I was a bit confused during the wood section. I can see the maple core, but what else am I looking at? Is that the ovangkol, the mahogany, or the walnut? (Wings = Walnut back, mahogany center, ovangkol top?)
You should try with a Cort A4 (or A5) Ultra Ash, that thing is great
Cort bass review at least.. I can sleep well now, thanks!
6:30 What are you playing here? So nice! Is that from a song or just jaming? I just ordered a Cort A4 Ultra Ash and I am looking forward to its arrival!
The B5 and A5 models have Hipshot ultralite tuners, the new B5 has the same bridge as the C series..
The tuners are Hipshot ultralights
Do the singlecuts!
Wow! Ive been looking at your channel for a while AND am currently saving up for a cort! Really surprising to see that you are reviewing the brand! What are your thoughts so far? Are cort basses acceptable in modern music?
Nice video! I have a Cort B5, plays fantastically but the reason I don't play it as often is the Bartolini's. They're too "parpy".
I have the Cort Action dlx 4 string with the same preamp, I've been really happy with it in terms of bang for buck. I am just about to try my new dödsmaskin II pedal by Pepers pedals with it and I'm pretty excited, it's basically a b3k clone with Pepers pedals version of the b7k preamp
actually, mk1 isn't real bartolini pickups, they just have word "bartolini" on the pickup covers. But Cort make a good instruments for they prices, it's true.
Nothing wrong with modern sealed tuners. They are smooth, they hold, and they last forever.
I need this Bass!!!
Better springing for the B series as that has licensed Ultralites. Even better try and find an older Korean Cort, sold off my B5 as it wasn't as good as my ancient MIK C5P.
maybe fancy strings like DR handmade would add guts and character
I have a Cort Action PJ, very basic, but it’s a darned nice bass. I might hot rod the pickups, but it’s fun to practice with (bass newbie).
For which genre this Bass is suitable for ?
I feel the same about these Bartolinis. Bass looks great though
Would love to see a demo of a Schecter Ultra.
You should try one of those Slick P Basses from guitarfetish. Feel like no one covers those
you got a cort
ncie
Hi sir, which one do you prefer? Sire M2 or this one? I'm planning to buy my 1st bass. Thanks 😊
Cort basses are great. they wipe the floor with ibanez's and Jacksons and the like....which i guess cort make...lmao. But seriously i have a b5 artisan, and i will never buy another 5 string. its got the best of everything on it, and plays like a dream, you dont have to fight it.
About 3 hours ago I was at the music store and I saw this hanging on the wall 🤤🤤🤤
Hi Patrick.
Just bougth a Cort C4 bass. Unfortunately it comes with some finishing issues. I would like to know if it is normal for this bass that the neck near the the pickups is slightly away from the body? Hould apreciate very mutch your feedback. Thank you very much!
Looks like my Harley Benton BZ4000-NT. @Patrick Hunter, are they comparable?
What's a good replacement for my Bartolinis in my Ibenez 705 ?
One day you should try to play the Bach prelude in C Major and move your head like if you were into Suicidal Tendencies, I'm pretty sure you can do this easily ! :-)
I have a B4 and the tuners are very good, Hipshot Ultralites. Have to agree with you though Patrick, the Bartolinis aren't the best.
I have Bartolini MK-1's in my Ibanez and I don't like the way my Ibanez sounds. Should I replace the pickups or the preamp?
Cort made great basses ! Try a GB74 GiG...
The GiG is so versatile
I love my C4
I bought one of those micro basses,Ibanez---- PURE JUNK!
nice bass
Could you do the cheaper bass of Cort? Like an Action PJ
Awesome vids, man
This c4 or Yamaha trbx 604 FM?
I own a Cort and it's a phenomenal bass but I'd go in this case with the Yamaha. First they make great instruments and second the 600 line just looks gorgeous.
Anyone able to find a case or Gig bag to fit this Bass? Cort C4 Plus?
Hell yea!!🤘🏼🤘🏼
Where can you buy Cort in the US?
Man that's a sweet friggin bass for 500 bucks
Hello guys, - I've just bought one of these recently and its bad ass, but am I tripping, or does that the 3 band eq not work in passive mode? Does it only work in active mode? As I've never owned a active mode bass before it's confused me, and I feel like a twat - anyone who can answer this question would be appreciated- cheers
Hey man, glad you're digging the bass so far that's awesome! But you're correct, passive mode completely bypasses the EQ controls completely
@@patrickhunter ahh man - thank you for that, - should I be able to blend both pick ups in passive mode however?
I used to have a Cort, very punchy, and very easy to play.
My first bass was an entry level cort. It was in the 80s. It was a piece of crap. They have come a long long way since then.
I have cort c4 plus zmbh
Please review the ibanez sr650/655
No explanation and demonstration of the complex passive/active layout and knobs and DIFFERENT sounds? Is this really a review?
Cort C5 Plus or Harley Bentom Bz5000??? Anyone who knows of both brands?
I don't like the pick ups much either I have them on my Ibanez SR900....
