My friend

Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: Life long passion

Reviewer's Play Style: Metal/Rock, finger/ pick strum style

I have owned a Cort Curbow bass for 8 years before having to part ways with my old friend. The best EVER! Nothing has ever compared to Curbow 4 String bass. The tones are great, especially if you like to use distortion or any other pedal for that matter. Being one who has short stubby fingers, playing this bass was a breeze and gave way more options in tone quality than any other. I continue to search to replace my old friend with another. This bass is a great model to learn on and to grow on for that matter. You will never go wrong with Curbow, nor will you ever wanna play anything else after that. Curbow for LIFE BABY!!!

Great Bass

Posted by OMW from Maryland on Sep 17, 2008

Reviewer's Play Style: Contemporary Christian, Jazz

This is a very good bass, not too heavy, very good range of playability. Wide rang of tones you can get just tweeking the EQ. Good action and the slap switch is a great option. This bass can get very fat or thin. I have the 4-string fretless, the 5 string and a 6 string Cort which I'm totally satisfied with. I also own a Fender, Spector, Ibanez and Gibson Ripper Fretless. The Cort stands up the them all. A must buy if you like the looks of this unusual looking bass.

Not Shabby

I bought this bass a little while ago. The extended fret broad is really fun to play around with. It looks fantastic, even better in real life. I get a lot of compliments on how the fret board looks. It is small, the only downside being that the lower horn is a pain when sitting. It is very thin too. A little buzz on the A string, but nothing bad. The electronics are nice, but don't have a very large range. Not a bass for reggae. It sounds very good though. Easy to play. Wide-ish thin neck. The slap switch is nice. It basically just gets rid of some mids. Pretty nice buy!

Best Bass I own and one of the best I've played

Posted by Kosmoburns from St. Pete, FL on Jul 15, 2007

Reviewer's Play Style: Classical, Jazz, Funk, Rock, Metal

I've owned one of these for a year now, been faithful as my main bass through slap/funk and now metal, the extra overdrive on the switch is handy to cause a natural distortion (which I'm a fan of) very nice to play and very nice to step off from a larger bass when I started to have wrist problems (which have since gone away on the small bass)

good bass for the price

I purchased this bass and have had it for around a year. The bass hass an amazing tone, with the small body it's easy to swing around on stage. This bass has been very reliable besides the fact that I've had to replace the input jack...(no big deal).. It's now starting to drain batteries fairly quick...other than that it's a very good bass for the price
