Cort C4-Plus-OVMH Electric Bass 4 String Antique Brown Burst
Description
The true workhorse of our famous Artisan series, the Artisan C4 Plus receives some significant improvements that will satisfy both the usual fans and the new performers, including the well-known rounded shape of the body that was only found in our models Artisan A high-end, a new Metalcraft M bridge with a versatile rope loading system and a gorgeous Ovangkol lid in antique burst brown for that classic, natural vintage look.
Ovangkol cap on mahogany wings with maple core
It's hard to resist the luxurious aesthetic of Ovangkol, cinnamon-brown with darker streaks. Known as a large, general-tone wood, Ovangkol shares Rosewood and Bubinga-like tone features with a slightly more complete midrange and a top end that isn't entirely bright, but the strategically placed maple in the center makes up for the missing trebles. The combination of the Ovangkol top and the maple core, together with the mahogany wings, of warmer sound, provides a perfect blend of balanced tone.
Bartolini® MK-1 pickups
Bartolini®'s signature sound is preserved on the MK-1 while offering exceptional sound quality and value. The MK-1 offers powerful and warm media along with bright, transparent trebles for extraordinarily balanced sound.
Markbass® MB-1 preamp
The MarkBass® MB-1 preamp provides a very natural and transparent enhancement that does not color the organic nature or resonance of the woods of the instrument. The combination of crystal clarity and natural warmth exudes a passive feeling with soft, mid-length, bodied and bell treble.
Metalcraft Bridge M
The solid Metalcraft M bridge of great mass was developed focusing more on ease of use and greater tone transfer. Depending on the thickness of the strings, the dual string loading system allows you to load the strings through the body or from the top to find the best optimal string tension, which translates into an improved sustain, greater ease of execution and a centered sound. Another great improvement for tone transfer is the deep individual grooves that hold the rock-proof seals, preventing any unwanted movement and allowing the string vibrations to transfer correctly to the body. Metalcraft M4 & M5 now come with 19㎜(M4) and 0.750″ (18㎜),(M5) string spacing.
