Cort Persona 5 Blue Resin Burl 5-String Bass Guitar Overview:

In response to demands for a smaller body electric bass guitar, the Persona 5 bass is developed. Its unique body and headstock shape has never been used by Cort before, and the stylish curves are smooth and elegant looking while keeping the body as ergonomic as possible. For Persona 5 Blue Resin Burl, a special epoxy resin is added to the top-tier poplar burl top to create that magnificent “desert oasis” effect. The process to build a resin top is so unique that only an extremely few number of Persona 5 Blue Resin Burl will be built, and each bass guitar will look different.Poplar Burl Resin Top on Alder BodyWe begin with a top-tier burled poplar wood and apply special mixture of epoxy resin that turns opaque when cured; creating a visual illusion that resembles “an oasis in the desert”. The unique process to build resin top enables each top to look different from each other. Besides the magnificent visuals, the combination of poplar top on alder body produces a strong, clear and full-bodied sound with thicker mids and cleaner lows.5pcs Roasted Hard Maple & Panga Panga NeckBy treating the maple in an oxygen-free oven at a high temperature, the wood stabilizes and develops a golden-brownish look for enhanced stability as well as a more vintage type of look and a big bolder tone. Addition of Panga Panga reinforces the stability.Macassar Ebony FingerboardAn ideal wood for high-gain applications, Macassar Ebony provides a cutting high-end to get your playing heard through the dense mix as well as fast and smooth playability.Bartolini MK-1 PickupsThe trademark Bartolini sound is preserved in the MK-1 while providing superb sound quality and value. The MK-1 delivers plenty of punchy and warm mids along with transparent and brilliant highs for a superbly balanced sound.Bartolini HR-5.4 AP Preamp SystemBartolini HR-5.4 AP Preamp System is comprised of 1 Volume (push/pull for active/passive), 1 Blend, 3-band EQ, and 3-way mid frequency toggle switch that can set the mid frequency to 250Hz, 500Hz, or quickly flip to 800Hz for a solo.
