Features:

Time-Proven Tonewood Combination

Ever since the 1950s, alder has been a top tonewood choice for bass manufacturers. The GB-Fusion 5 features a solid alder body for the iconic J-style low-end warmth and punchy midrange growl. The spalted maple veneer on top delivers an eye-catching visual impact on stage and in your home.

J-Style Single Coil Pickups, Evolved

Developed by Cort engineers drawing on decades of coil-winding experience, the Voiced Tone TB-ST pickups in the GB-Fusion 5 deliver the big, robust sound of vintage pickups with modern transparency, detail, and articulation. Combined with the GB-Fusion 5’s active electronics, you’ll hear every nuance of your creative expression.

Primed for Playability

The GB-Fusion 5 boasts a visually stunning hand-selected birds-eye maple fretboard that delivers powerful midrange and high-end clarity. At the upper registers, you’ll find that the Ergonomic Neck Joint gives you unparalleled access to the highest frets, increasing playing comfort while reducing tendon stress and awkward wrist and finger positions.

Advanced Hardware for Rock-Solid Performace

Premium Hipshot® Ultralite tuners and the solid, high-mass MetalCraft M bridge give the GB-Fusion 5 bass exceptional tuning stability and sonic impact.

Ideal Tone Transfer & Tension

The solid, high-mass MetalCraft M bridge combines ease of use with greater tone transfer. The dual string loading system allows the strings to be loaded either through the body or from the top to find the best optimal string tension, resulting in enhanced sustain, greater playability, and focused sound.

Versatile 3-Band EQ & Blend

You have a ton of control over your tone with the GB-Fusion 5 bass. Engage the active electronics with the push/pull Volume control and explore limitless sonic variety with the Blend control and 3-band EQ.

Luminlay Side Dots

The luminlay side dot position markers make it easy for players to see the fretboard position when performing on dark stages.
