Cort Artisan Space 5 SDG

It looks great on product photos and in person too, but there are downsides to this bass. I’ll start with the worst problem - the bridge, I put Warwick 41301 M 5B strings on it, and action of the saddles of strings 3 and 4 can’t go low enough to even get inside the 2.4 mm range that Cort recommends in their bass user manuals. Furthermore, the bridge doesn’t allow to fix scale lengths, meaning the saddle is free to move back and forth, should you nudge it a little bit.
34” doesn’t seem long enough for the 5th low B string, - it is flimsy, sounds weak and buzzes on the frets a lot.
I didn’t manage to minimize the fret buzz, no matter how much I adjusted the truss rod and action. I’m no pro at this, but I can use a thickness gauge and my brain.
Also there are many roughy spots where the top is glued the the body, as if someone st Cort didn’t sand those spots nearly enough.

The sound of strings 1-4 is good, though, worked for me.
