Artisan C4 | Cort Bass Guitar Review

Cort Artisan C4 review - A 'gig-able' bass guitar at its cheapest

Why do we all play bass guitars? I mean, we want to play in front of people, right? But if you want to play in a gig, your bass guitar needs a minimum standard to make sure that the bass guitar won't let you down.

Cort C4 is just another typical Cort bass guitar - cheap but excellent quality. If you want to play in a gig, but your bass guitar is not up to the task, maybe you should consider upgrading it to Cort C4. Compared to its quality, Cort C4 goes as cheap as you can go, around $300.

Cort C4 has a 2 band EQ pre-amp on it, so during a gig, you can change how your bass guitar sounds with ease. Also, when playing in a gig, its horrible when your bass guitar goes out of tune - Cort C4, with its solid tuners, won't let you down. Maybe you aren't happy with the fact that there's no control for middle frequency - Cort C4 instead has a mid-boost switch to take care of that.

Although being in the lowest of the Artisan bass guitar series, this bass guitar is far from having low quality. If you are rather short on cash, but have a burning desire to play in a gig, go for Cort C4. This bass guitar will not let you down.

Artisan B4 | Cort Bass Guitar Review

Cort Artisan B4 review - under rated Korean "gem"(so cheap but so good)

Many bassists love the growl and the power of Warwick bass guitars. The only problem is that Warwick bass guitars cost a fortune - usually $4000 plus. Cort B4, which is almost 10 times cheaper than Warwick bass guitars - at around $500 - is really a wonder. Although Cort B4 doesn't manage to equal Warwick bass guitars, it gets somewhere close. This is incredible, as Cort B4 is so so cheap.

Specs are identical to that of A4, except that B4 doesn't have a neck through construction. You can see my review of Cort A4.

Being an active bass(it has a preamp in the guitar), Cort B4 is able to produce really powerful sounds compared to other bass guitars, and it is only beaten by Warwick bass guitars really. But just compare their price tag... B4 is simply amazing. The reason for this cheap price is that Cort bass guitars a mass produced in factories, but despite this, Cort bass guitars all have flawless quality with excellent factory settings.

As with Cort A4, Cort B4 is able to produce a variety of tones thanks to its Bartolini 3 band EQ preamp. Just fool around with those knobs and you will find the tone you want. This bass guitar is suited for any type of genres of music.

Cort B4 is a great bass guitar. At such a cheap price, the bass guitar manages to almost flawlessly copy Warwick bass guitars. At this cheap price, no bass guitar can beat the Cort B4.
