Cort

collapse expand iconDescription

The A5 Plus FMMH is the reference Cort bass designed and built for the working musician who requires excellent performance and rock-steady reliability gig after gig. Featuring neck-thru-body construction, premium tonewoods and Bartolini pickups and electronics, the A5 Plus FMMH delivers the sound and playability a working pro needs. The mahogany body’s warm and emphasized low-midrange is complemented by the high-midrange and treble of 5-piece maple and wenge neck for a balanced and coherent sound. The flame maple top on the body adds a high-class upgraded look and a touch of tonal definition. The trademark Bartolini sound is preserved in the MK-1 while providing superb sound quality and value. The MK-1 pickups deliver plenty of punchy and warm mids along with transparent and brilliant highs for a superbly balanced sound. Plus, Bartolini’s renowned MK-1 preamp provides powerful yet transparent boost along with its trademark crisp high end.
