Cort GB-Modern 5 String Bass Guitar with Case Clearance Recommend

The Cort GB-Modern 5 String Bass Guitar with Case is designed for J-Bass enthusiasts who want a lightweight instrument with a modern twist. It features a comfortable, lightweight body design that won’t weigh you down, along with high-end features like Nordstrand® Big Single pickups, MarkBass® MB Instrument preamp, and Babicz® FCH5 bridge for superior sound and playability.

The GB-Modern 5 features a cleverly designed body that is lightweight without sacrificing tone. The maple core is paired with lightweight paulownia wings, topped with beautiful burl poplar and ash for a stunning look and excellent sound.

The Nordstrand® Big Single pickups deliver a powerful, full sound. These single-coil pickups are known for their tonal versatility and ability to handle a wide range of playing styles.

The MarkBass® MB Instrument preamp is designed to provide a clean, focused bass tone with a wide range of tonal options. It features a 3-band EQ and a variety of wiring options to give you the perfect sound for any genre.

The Babicz® FCH bridge improves sustain, pitch stability, and dynamic range. Its unique design keeps your strings in place, even when you’re removing them for string changes.

The roasted maple neck and fretboard provide a vintage look, enhanced stability, and a big, bold tone. The roasted maple is treated at a high temperature to remove moisture and increase stability, resulting in a more resonant neck.

The Hipshot® Ultralite tuners are 30% lighter than traditional tuners, which improves the balance of the instrument and makes it easier to stay in tune.

The Cort GB-Modern 5 bass guitar also includes a spoke nut Hotrod truss rod for easy neck adjustments, Luminlay side dots for easy visibility in low-light situations, and an exclusive deluxe soft-side case for superior protection and portability. With its high-end features and stylish design, the GB-Modern 5 is a great option for bass players who are looking for a lightweight, comfortable instrument with a powerful sound.
