{"product_id":"193467488","title":"【used】Cort \/ Elrick NJS5 White 4.200kg #IE241207821【GIB Yokohama】","description":"\u003cp\u003eCort is a leading guitar brand from South Korea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey own their own factory and have a global presence, particularly in OEM manufacturing. For example, Ibanez and PRS guitars are famously manufactured at Cort's factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis in-house brand utilizes the knowledge gained from OEM manufacturing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Elrick NJS5 is a collaboration model between Cort and Elrick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElrick is a handmade brand by builder Rob Elrick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in the United States in 1992, it has garnered support from many musicians due to its high quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe relationship between Cort and Elrick dates back more than 20 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey jointly developed the Elrick e-volution Bass model, which was very well received.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NJS series was created to commemorate Elrick's 30th anniversary, building on this relationship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNJS stands for New Jazz Standard. It literally aims for a modern JB style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is made of alder, and the neck and fingerboard are made of maple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar features a classic wood construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is made of beautiful quarter-sawn maple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to flat-sawn wood, it produces a tighter, more direct sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile sound characteristics are a matter of personal preference, I think it perfectly matches the modern JB-like feel of this model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, leveraging the advantages of having a large in-house factory, the fact that they specifically selected and used wood at this price point demonstrates that this is a product with a clear purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar features 24 frets and a 12\"\" fingerboard radius.\u003cbr\u003eThe headstock is angled to ensure proper tension on the nut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA unique feature is the inclusion of a zero fret.\u003cbr\u003eThis design assigns the function of the zero fret (usually the nut) to the fret itself, unifying the sound of open and fretted strings. It also offers greater flexibility in gauge selection and reduces unnecessary friction at the nut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fret edges are incredibly smooth; no one should experience any discomfort here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original pickups, called Voiced Tone, were designed by Cort's engineers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey typically work with top brands like Nordstrand, Bartolini, and PRS, and the quality of these pickups, designed with their accumulated knowledge, is comparable to those brands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe preamp is a custom design by Bartolini and features a 3-band EQ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt powerfully and flexibly shapes and outputs the signal created by the vintage-inspired pickups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tuning machines are the globally renowned Hipshot. Ultralite.\u003cbr\u003eI think it prevents head dive and at the same time adds a light and rich midrange to the sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you actually hold it, you get a JB-like impression. It is an excellent design that allows you to concentrate on playing because it is very well balanced and does not put any strain on your body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sound created by high-quality electronics is very impressive, and it is truly a modern JB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA masterpiece that carefully incorporates excellent hardware and tone wood.\u003cbr\u003eSince it is made in Indonesia, it seems to have an advantage over other brands in terms of price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a must-try item for those who have the impression that low-priced basses or basses made in Indonesia are of low quality. I think there will be some surprises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApproximately 80% of the frets remain.\u003cbr\u003eThe condition of the truss rod is good.\u003cbr\u003eThe condition of the neck is good.\u003cbr\u003eThere are some small scratches scattered throughout the body and paintwork.\u003cbr\u003eThe electrical system is in good condition.\u003cbr\u003eNo obvious modification points were found.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControls: Master volume, balancer, treble, middle, bass, preamp gain (inside cavity)\u003cbr\u003eNut width: 48.2mm\u003cbr\u003eBridge string pitch Dimensions: 18.0mm\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 34 Inch\u003cbr\u003eYear of Manufacture: Unknown\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Manufacture: INDONESIA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring setup, we use our original GIB BASIC \/ Standard Bass Strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese strings are characterized by their straightforward sound and stable playability, naturally bringing out the instrument's inherent character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are highly reliable strings that we actually use in our repair and setup workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease enjoy these strings, which aim to be a new standard for bassists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivered after being adjusted for easy playability by GIB craftsmen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccessories: Original gig bag\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eText: Mizune Ishikawa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspection 담당: Hirayama\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduct Photos: Higashie\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGIB 3-Month Warranty Included\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e●Price includes VAT \u0026amp; Duties \u0026amp; Shipping Fee\u003cbr\u003eFree Shipping Worldwide.
