Cort Space 5-String Headless Bass – Star Dust Black

The Cort Artisan Space 5 w/Bag is a testament to musical innovation, combining state-of-the-art features with the practicality of a headless design. Embracing the pioneering spirit of Cort’s early headless models, the Space 5 has been crafted to cater to bassists seeking a compact, lightweight instrument without compromising on sound. Its visually striking poplar burl top on a maple body is not just aesthetically pleasing, but it also contributes to the instrument’s resonant tone and dynamic range.

The instrument’s heart lies in its electronics and construction; featuring premium Bartolini MK-1 pickups and an active 3-band EQ, players can sculpt their sound with incredible precision, whether on stage or in the studio. The seven-piece roasted maple, walnut, purple heart, and maple neck not only provide outstanding stability but also enhance the tonal character, ensuring the Space 5 stands out in any mix. Shipped with a protective gig bag, this bass is a ready-to-tour powerhouse, perfect for the modern musician on the move.

Headless design

The Space 5’s headless design offers numerous ergonomic benefits, making it an ideal choice for players who value comfort and portability. The elimination of a traditional headstock means the instrument is more balanced and lighter, reducing strain on the player’s shoulder and back during long hours of playing. This also makes transporting the bass easier – perfect for musicians on tour or those with limited storage space.

7-piece neck for stability and tone

The multi-laminate construction of the Space 5’s seven-piece roasted maple, walnut, purple heart, and maple neck ensures it remains stable in even the most demanding playing conditions. This exceptional level of rigidity translates into a focused sound with impressive sustain and unparalleled resonance. Whether you’re playing intricate basslines or laying down some heavy grooves, the Space 5 delivers unparalleled performance and reliability.

Bartolini pickups

The heart of any electric bass is its pickups, and the Cort Artisan Space 5 w/Bag boasts a premium set of Bartolini MK-1s. These high-quality pickups provide rich, expressive sound with exceptional clarity and definition. Whatever style of music you play, the Bartolini pickups will deliver a powerful tone that cuts through any mix, making it an ideal choice for recording or live performances.

Active 3-Band EQ

To further enhance its tonal capabilities, the Space 5 is equipped with an active 3-band EQ. This allows players to shape their sound with incredible precision, offering plenty of options for dialing in the perfect tone for any musical situation. Whether you want a bright and punchy tone or a deep and warm sound, the Space 5 has you covered.
