![Why aren't more basses like this?! | Yamaha BB434M [Review/Demo]](/img/n.gif)
Man, Cort has really been stepping it up in the past couple years. This is killer.
Sure. Bought Cort A4 OPN about a year ago as my second instrument for reharsal room -- and was so pleasantly surprised. Love it. Of course it doesn't sound like airplane-costed Corvets of Mayoneses, but still more decent than any I've heard at the same price category.
I've always had a soft spot for Cort basses, and this one is probably the best Cort I have ever heard. Sounds like a jazz AND a Stingray!
It's like: do you want a jazz bass, a precision or a music man? YES
That split coil pups just perfect
I was about to say the same thing about their guitars.
Couldn't agree more!
My soft spot for Cort started with their Curbow basses - absolutely wild designs, great tones, and you get a Curbow bass at a fraction of the cost of the boutique made by Greg Curbow.
This bass looks absolutely stellar - I have a buddy who was looking at buying a P-Bass...I might need to point him toward this bass!
I’ve been waiting for this bass to come out for a good while now. Thanks for making this!
thank you!!! i was looking at this but couldnt find a worthwhile demonstration of its true capabilities. god send of a video at perfect timing!!!
I actually own a Cort and really like it, but be careful, Lars can make anything sound great!
@@corvusmonedulas4895 the bassist is always more important than the bass! 🤓
I played one of these yesterday. Really nice traditional feel and the tones are all there. Good bass at any price.
Probably best suited for rock because the tweakability means that you can find a useable drive tone with anything.
Wow talk about versatile! Very nice looking too!
Good video. Nice bass. Interesting pickup configuration too. Thanks.
Great looking bass and great review!
I really enjoyed listening to that piece at the end! Was that his own arrangement? It sounded familiar at certain parts. I think that single coil was as close to a classical guitar tone you could get on a bass. Great review/demo, as always. Cheers!
hi! thank you very much! it is my own arrangement indeed, however the chord progression is pretty "standard" - it must have been used hundrets of times by various artists ... hence the bellringing, i guess! :-)
Awesome video! good job.:) pretty solid and punchy bass indeed!
Finally a nice looking and sounding alternative to that damn fender. I am very interested in this bass.
That split pups is just perfect.
Estos bajos van mejorando con el paso de los años 👌🏾
Did I just watch some muted vintage P-tone with muting with the LEFT HAND ?!
HAVE NEVER SEEN THAT ! So cool
Check out Rocco Prestia! Tower of Power! 👍
Eggs from the Eierlegende Wollmilchsau can only be cracked with an Eierschalenbruchstellenerzeuger
Other than wanting a rosewood board it’s hard to find anything to criticize here! Sounds lovely!!!!
Ah! Much awaited review! Thank you so much Greg ❤️ #sugataroypalodhi
I would love to hear Gregor play sometime
Thats awesome!
Just bought one, this video and the deal I got was the clincher, such a versatile bass. I paid £379 in the UK....the bass was already good value IMHO at the RRP of £580.
Cort basses are really great But Lars is the best he should give some on line lessons I still listen to him and pick up something every time he plays and add to my teneque Thanks Lars and Bass the World!!!
That body shape is so cool
This, in 5 string (and 24 fret) I would get it in a heartbeat.
I think they do make it in that configuration, it’s the gb75 I think
@@carloslara7452 that’s a different pickup configuration (and a different preamp)
@@carloslara7452 and it doesn't have 24 frets
Lovely solo at the end 💙💕💛 what is that? The composition?
thank you very much! It's basically just pretty "standard" chord progression that hit me during our session. :-)
Love my Cort GB-34-A, It's got the Jazz neck and MM bridge. I swapped in the EMG SJ and MMCS with the active EQ and man, this thing plays like a million bucks!
Totally agree! I also have GB34A but with seymour duncan jazz and humbucker pickups and custom diy electronics... Got to say, best value for the money basses. Probably have it for 6 years and still not really considering in moving to higher priced instrument.
@@tautvydaskuras7060 Totally agree. I've got a GB44 (Korean made, 2001), single MM 'bucker, MM style-bridge, flat neck....it's a great bass, so easy to play :)
Looks and sounds great....so, how much?
What's generating the strings like synth/reverb sound in the final piece? Is clearly related to the notes played, so a it should be a pedal I guess...
Great review as always. I wish more reviewers would weigh basses though.
I own one. The weight is not bad. 8 to 8 1/2 pounds perhaps. Excellent bass for the price group! Killer neck! And I totally agree with you. I’ve had neck surgery and 2 back surgeries so I’m always interested in the weight. Check out Cort’s new Modern basses which the wings are made of Paulownia. Nice & light. Better yet check out Sandberg California SL (super light) basses. Less than 7 lbs. I own both of these. No complaints! 👍
That's a VERSATILE bass!
Hi Gregor, could you make a video comparing this bass with the B4 Plus RM which you love? That's the one I wanted to buy, now this new one looks very interesting
I like the B series’s a bit more. The roasted maple and the better pickups make a difference
@@basstheworldofficial oh, are they? So of I like my bass to go from awesome metal growl to awesome slap tones, would the B4 Plus still be your favorite of the two?
Or would you have 1, 2 other recommendations for that on this price range?
I love this bass, it's so versatile! I'd sell both my basses to buy one of those lol but people aren't buying instruments here in BR lol
Could you please review vault pj bass?
Ich dachte immer, das war eine Vollmilchsau, nicht "Wollmilchsau"... Ist aber trotzdem lustig, egal wie. Gute review!
Id have to sandblast that Cort name off of the neck! Its a solid looking bass though 👏👏👏
What string u used?
The only downside with Cort instruments is their name. Cort is seen as a beginner brand even though they offer one of the greatest value for money...
Yeah, but then again it depends on wether or not you care about superficial people. Seriously, if its sounds and feels good to you(and there are no restrictions by the kind of gig you play, like you wouldn't take an instrument covered in satanic black metal stickers to a classic wedding gig), then it doesn't matter if it says Cort, Fender, Squier, Fodera or Vision on it. People who point with their finger at you can shove it somewhere else.
@@haxenheimer9707 oh I totally agree! Just saying that a good sounding Cort will always be "less cool" than a crappy Fender in terms of sales and brand image...
There are bass players and then there are brand players.
Well the market value is important when you resell an instrument. Most of the people follow brands. Another good example is Bacchus. Apparently they are great basses but people prefer Fenders instead
@Igor Vinícius i think mose of the brand players are pretty good bass players. Just my opinion
I used to think Corts were...well, what everybody else thought, and couldn't imagine owning one.
Now I have a Cort bass and their MBC1 guitar, and am home. Like, "if you were on a desert island..."
The build quality is excellent on both, as are the pickups. I love the aesthetics, and as far as value for money, neither can be beat.
It may take a few years for the rebranding and reputation to kick in, but in the meantime...Play On
Passive mode is great
Dunno about their guitars but Cort basses always been solid.
I kind of regret that I didn't buy a Curbow about 10-12 years ago. Cort has some very nice basses!
I still have my Curbow that I got 20 years ago!
@@derekbrown2583 and you don't see them very often being sold...
Word up!
cool, was looking for someone else who caught that Cameo bass line.
1:20 dam dat lick
i had one this killer bass..no regrets
2:38 Word up!
Great Channel! I'm looking for a versatile bass for my home studio, so here's my question!: this or the Harley Benton Enhanced MP-4MN?? Can't decide!!
Word Up!
I had a GB75. I still miss it.
Holy shit, it's *only* 615 euros ???? DAmn, that's perfect because I want a bass with all the pick up options lol
Eierlegende Wollmilchsau😂 👍 Super!
I want it :(
I had a Cort B4 ASRM Plus & it was an amazing bass for the $.
Same bass Brett,,,,as well,,it can be out front,,, or just sit, beautifully back in the mix.
@@floydlay9189 So true Floyd. I got so many comments like "I didn't expect a CORT to sound like that!" I have since upgraded to Fender Ultra Jazz & there is definitely a difference BUT there should be for that $$! Hands down Cort basses are probably the best value for $. Especially here is Australia, nothing got close to what the B4 offered, spec wise, in that price range. Love that Bass The World showcase them too along with that big $ brands like Mayones etc
@@brettb7000 Hi,Brett,,my mate just bought fender ultra p bass,,what a bass,,I nearly fell over tho when he told me the price,,,,,but it is one beautiful Bass,,
@@floydlay9189 Yeah I got made redundant from my last job after 15yrs so with some of my payout I decided to sell my Cort & my Fender acoustic & purchased the "Texas Tea" Ultra Jazz. Its a next level instrument, now just need my playing to do the same! Haha
@@brettb7000 Well a very worthy investment,,I'm sure they will climb in value,,in years to come!
If there’s a 5 strings version I’m totally sold!
Thats a total package bass. Very cool but I miss the Cort Curbows
The P is spot on. The bridge pickup leaves a lot to be desired in both J and MM modes.
Edit: It's because you ran it in series. Big difference.
Beautiful Lake Placid Blue body, versatile pickups, headstock not so gorgeous but I can take it :D
When you hear the call you have to get it under way
The bridge pickup is in the wrong spot but it's still pretty cool.
I wonder if they do a 5 string
Where's the GB75 GIG???
Sounds great. The biggest problem with Cort basses is finding them in a store.
Because Cort keeps discontinuing them. I’ve had to buy them in other countries. You get hit with shipping & Customs. SMH!
@@leedodson3136 yeah, I'm not going through all that when there are other basses available.
@@Grumdot Exactly!
I'm a sucker for these kind of flexible basses. Only wish it had 24 frets😅
It’s only 3 frets off. 21!
I WANT ONE
Anyone remembers the times that Corts have those 2-piece massively useless bridges that cannot be properly adjusted and buzz all the time? Seems like they came long way from there
Their guitars 10 years ago were complete crap
Had their X1 as my first guitar dropped it accidentally and the wood showed up. Poops no solid wood not even 2 or 3 pieces of wood
It was thin small wood chips glued together 😕🙄 no surprise the guitar had 3 seconds sustain. They are still cheap looking/feeling guitars and basses, but for people with no specific wishes it will do the job.
@@savanaviolenta When cort restarted in Indonesia? Yeah those were utter trash from the transition era.
The EVL's were pretty craptastic aswell.
Unfortunately Cort doesn't make any short scale basses.
Shame about the lack of colour options. Black or sunburst with black pickguard and I'd be all over.
Black with tortoise pickguard... a dream.
Cort Basses are the best! After I bought Cort Action V Plus I sold my Fender JB and going to sell my Warwick Thumb.
Zahnstocherhals :-( ansonsten cooler Bass
Nothing funnier than hearing a German attempt to say the word "squirrel".
wauh
But then I'd have to buy a Cort...eh
...and it's proudly Made In Indonesia
this video felt like a commercial
Bass sounds good, but it doesn't have impressive pickups just a plain preamp. I'm sure this bass is pretty expensive.
Nope!
made in indonesia ...local ppl in indonesia mostly using made in china, lmao
In the other side of the coin you have the Joe Dart bass, super expensive and zero versatility.
I hate cort basses, dont ask me why
Don't worry, we won't :)
@@drewlawrence696 ask me please
Very artificial sound, sucks
It's just well assembled bass with 3rd party hardware. Nothing innovative here. Doesn't sound anything special.
