About this listing
8.80 lbsSpecialty Traders is an Authorized Dealer! New!20 years ago, Cort® joined forces together with world-renowned luthier Rob Elrick of the Elrick Bass Guitars® and developed a Cort® version of ‘Elrick e-volution Bass’ that gained popularity among serious bass players. Now for its 30th anniversary year, Elrick Bass Guitars® has partnered again with Cort® to release the new Cort® Elrick NJS basses. The NJS, short for New Jazz Standard, are modern j-bass styled basses with unique features such as angled headstock and 24 frets with zero fret, a “heel-less” body design with extended treble access, and Voiced Tone VTB-ST pickups with Bartolini® preamp. Loved by many aspiring and experienced bass players alike throughout the years, the innovative design and superb playability of the NJS basses is sure to satisfy high-end bass aficionados.The Alder body provides a perfectly balanced tone while giving a slight boost on high mid range. It's one of the most ideal tonewoods for solid body basses of major bass makers since the 1950's.The new Voiced Tone VTB-ST single-coil pickups perfectly complement the big robust sound of the bass with modern clarity, transparency and vintage warmth while eliminating noise with its hum canceling design.The same specially designed Bartolini® preamp that are installed on the US made original Elrick NJS basses are equipped, featuring 3-band EQ, 2-way push/pull mid select, and push / pull active bypass for a variety of tone combinations and manipulations.The solid, high-mass MetalCraft M bridge was developed with more focus on ease-of-use and greater tone transfer. Specially adjusted for Elrick NJS, the bridge offers string loading from the back of the bridge for easier operation as well as greater tuning stability and focused sound. Another big improvement for the tone transfer is the deep individual slots that hold the saddles rock-tight, preventing any unwanted movement and allows string vibrations to correctly transfer to the body. MetalCraft M4 and M5 now come with string spacing of 19㎜(0.750”) for the 4-string M4, and 18㎜(0.708”) for the 5-string M5.SpecificationsConstruction Bolt-OnBody Material AlderTop Material NoneScale Length 34″ (864mm)Neck Material Hard Maple 3-ply LaminatedNeck Shape Elrick Custom ProfileNeck Thickness 1F : 21.8mm, 12F : 22.5mmFingerboard Material Hard Maple 3-ply LaminatedFingerboard Radius 12″ (R305)Number of Frets 24 FretsFret Type Small (2.0×1.1), Nickel SilverInlay White Pearloid Block with Black Side DotsNut Material BoneNut Width 1 21/32″ (42mm)Truss Rod Two-way AdjustableTuning Machines Hipshot® UltraliteBridge Metal Craft M4 (String spacing : 19mm)Pickups Voiced Tone VTB-ST 4-String Pickup SetElectronics Bartolini® Elrick NJS Special PreampControls 1-Volume, 1-Blend, 3-Band EQHardware ChromeStrings D'Addario® EXL165 (.045 .065 .085 .105)Neck Finish MatteBody Finish GlossAccessories Deluxe Soft-Side Case Included
