Cort Bass Serial Numbers
Click to expand.What is the serial# of the A6? What is the Cort Guitars serial number dating system? This is a common question we see quite regularly on the forums. Cort model serial numbers are usually found on the headstock of the guitar and can often be used to identify the date of manufacture. The most common current dating system has been in place since around 2000 and is YYMMXXXX. Thus, a serial number reading 02046572 means the guitar most likely manufactured in April 2002.
I have Google image searched all the listed bass models and none of them match mine. It has Cort, serial number and 'made in Indionesia'. CORT bass GUITAR, SERIAL NUMBER 313829. CORT GUITAR, SERIAL NUMBER 8014787 AND THE MODEL.: THANKS.

In early 2005 Cort serial numbers gained an extra identification digit, and so some models manufactured after this date are in the style of YYMMXXXXX. The older known dating system was implemented in the early 90s, and is YMMXXXX. If you had a serial number 7064381, then the guitar should have been made in June 1997.
Please not that there are variation of this rule and the above will not hold true for all guitars. @ 4$$ Tnx man!
So,my serial is 0061370,that would mean that bass is manufactured in June of 2000? The bas is still in great shape,and I bought it here in Europe for 400eur (used of course),do you think that is fair price? And what would be class level of this bass? (like,amateur,semi pro,pro? And similar) This pictures I've posted are about seven days old after I bought instrument (that would be February of this 2008.). I'm really happy with it,but I didn't tried other 6strings here in Serbia,except my friends JM2.
I'm not thinking of changing it soon and I would be happy to join your Cort club! Err,can I get number.
So I found this sort of strat knock off at a flea market, and have so far found exactly one google result that matches it, and that told me absolutely nothing beyond 'Cort, probably 80's'. Got it for about 50. The headstock says 'Cort electric guitar' and there's two stickers on the back with a serial number, WO20785, and 'Fabrique en Coree', which I guess means 'made in Korea' in French. As you can see from the photos there's no pickup selector switch.
Instead it has individual volume controls (I took two of the knobs off because they were broken and needed to be replaced) The neck is certainly not maple, but looks kind of light in tone for rosewood (nota bene, I've never had a rosewood neck at all, so I'm not sure what one would look like). The fretboard is strangely matted (perhaps from age), and I don't think that's its natural colour, rather, the wood looks like it has been stained dark. So, any guesses? Is there any way of telling when this thing was made, if it has a model name, and if it has any kind of value today? (I mostly bought it for kicks and giggles since the price was trivial, but all the same, inquiring minds.) Album of pics: Linked pics. Thanks for all the replies.
I figured it'd be pretty obscure (I doubt the guy selling it knew what it was, let alone could play it), but it's always nice to have some input. The feel is not terrible. Keep in mind my regular guitar is an OLP MM4 (Musicman Silhouette copy) so I'm not comparing it to anything particularly expensive anyway.
It's a bit rough around the edges, the frets do tend to snag if you run your fingers along the edges of the fretboard, but it's nothing that'll trouble me personally when actually playing, and the strings were riding very high when I bought it. That's not a huge issue for me speed wise (I'm slow, d'uh), but it did make it hard to tune properly. Lowering the bridge made it tune way better, but now it's rattling instead, of course.
I'm going to try to find a happy middle. If I can't I'll just take it to my local store and let them have a go at it. Sims 3 pc iso torrent. The sound seems pretty standard single coil to me. It doesn't have that strat cluck at all though, but more of a direct, slightly sharp sound (I probably wouldn't care to play it clean too much). By comparison, my OLP is more rounded when you turn on some overdrive and has a sort of singing bass that gets a bit muddled (lots of overtones I guess). On the Cort the bass is snappier, but also is thinner, and getting a smooth bluesy lead sound from the neck pickup seems difficult. Rolling off the tone knob does get you some of the way there, but it has virtually no effect at all until it's already down to about 2-3, so there's not a whole lot of play there.
