Cort A5 Beyond Open Pore Bubinga - Natural

The A5 Beyond innovates modern bass concepts to the next level with the tone-enhancing tension that multi-scale design provides, amazing body/neck balance, and effortless access to the highest frets.

- Exceptional Balance and Control
The A5 Beyond’s single-cutaway design maximizes body/neck balance, allowing you to perform expressively while reducing fatigue.

- Experience Multi-Scale Tone and Playability
Higher tension on the lower strings gives the A5 Beyond a tight, focused, and thunderous low-end response even on your open B string. And once you feel the comfortable, ergonomic playability the A5 Beyond’s multi-scale frets provide, you may not want to go back to a traditional bass.

- A Tonewood Combination for the Ears and Eyes
The A5 Beyond starts with an ash body, a classic tonewood choice for solid, well-balanced bass tone. The bubinga top enhances sustain, warmth, and depth, and l ooks amazingly elegant while doing so.

- Bartolini Electronics for World-class Tone
The A5 Beyond is equipped with Bartolini MK-1 pickups with active 3-band EQ, giving you ultimate control to shape your tone for any setting. MK-1 pickups are voiced for robust mids with brilliant highs, with switchable passive/active modes for two distinct sonic profiles to explore.

- Maximized Tone with Thru-Body Neck Construction
The A5 Beyond's thru-body neck allows string vibrations to propagate across the body and neck in a linear manner, enhancing low/mid frequencies while supporting brighter, more articulate highs.

- Focus on Your Playing, Not Your Tuning
High-performance Hipshot Ultralite tuning hardware allows you to play longer with less tune-ups.

- Individual String Bridges for Rock-Solid Tone
Giving each string a separate bridge minimizes crosstalk between strings, greatly enhancing the A5 Beyond's note definition and articulation.
