{"product_id":"192607774","title":"【new】Cort \/ Elrick NJS4 Black 3.88kg #IE240901200【GIB Hyogo】","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eCort is a leading guitar brand from South Korea.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis in-house brand utilizes the knowledge gained from OEM manufacturing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Elrick NJS4 is a collaboration model between Cort and Elrick.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eElrick is a handmade brand by builder Rob Elrick.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFounded in the United States in 1992, it has garnered support from many musicians due to its high quality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe relationship between Cort and Elrick dates back more than 20 years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey jointly developed the Elrick e-volution Bass model, which was very well received.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe NJS series was created to commemorate Elrick's 30th anniversary, building on this relationship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNJS stands for New Jazz Standard. It literally aims for a modern JB style.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe body is made of alder, and the neck and fingerboard are made of maple.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis guitar features a classic wood construction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe neck is made of beautiful quarter-sawn maple.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCompared to flat-sawn wood, it produces a tighter, more direct sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile sound characteristics are a matter of personal preference, I think it perfectly matches the modern JB-like feel of this model.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis guitar features 24 frets and a 12\" fingerboard radius.\u003cbr\u003eThe headstock is angled to ensure proper tension on the nut.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe fret edges are incredibly smooth; no one should experience any discomfort here.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe original pickups, called Voiced Tone, were designed by Cort's engineers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe preamp is a custom design by Bartolini and features a 3-band EQ.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt powerfully and flexibly shapes and outputs the signal created by the vintage-inspired pickups.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe tuning machines are the globally renowned Hipshot. Ultralite.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt seems to prevent head dive while simultaneously adding a light and rich midrange to the sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen you actually hold it, it naturally gives a JB-like impression. The balance is excellent and it doesn't strain your body, making it a superb design that allows you to concentrate on playing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe sound, crafted with high-quality electronics, is very impressive, truly a modern JB.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA masterpiece with excellent hardware and tonewoods carefully incorporated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs expected from an Indonesian-made instrument, it seems to have a price advantage over other brands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a must-try for anyone who has a negative impression of low-priced or Indonesian-made basses.
