Buyer Beware, Not True Passive Bass Mode
Ismael M 01.04.2022
Do not buy if you want a true active and MORE INPORTANT passive bass for the Cort A4 Plus bass. This bass requires a battery in passive mode for it to work. If the 9 volt battery is removed or dies on you mid performance or mid recording, the bass does not not work at all if you switch the toggle to passive mode. This bass is described on this Thomann site as an active / passive bass and no where does it say, battery required in PASSIVE to function. This is one of the main reasons for purchasing this bass, to have that passive security, back up if you will, in case your battery dies and of course, to give you an added classic tone in passive mode. I found no distinctive sound difference in sound in either mode , so called active/ passive mode. I contacted Thomann through several emails and several phone calls regarding this issue. They said they needed to contact the Cort manufacturer before making any decisions on what steps to take next. And, just like I said, they confirmed a battery is needed to work in either mode, saying the active mode is bypassed in passive mode, but still needs a battery for the bass to function.
In the 18 years of playing basses, active, passive or active/ passive basses, I have never seen or heard of a passive bass that requires a battery to function at all. There are several other negative reviews regarding this passive mode issue for this Cort bass. Now I'm stuck with this bass.

The last Bass I will ever want
Sven Glitterball 13.10.2020
This a really beautiful bass in every way; great sound (s), great feel, great finish, great looks, great price. The pre-amp gives you easy access to loads of sounds and if the battery goes onstage - flick a switch and you're back up and running old style. The through neck gives a sustain to die for. To play is a very comfortable experience. Cort lead the thinking about all guitars - I have an electric and an acoustic as well as the bass. You get top knotch gear without wrecking your bank account.

Great bass
Old skool no more. 18.07.2023
This is a great bass and at a great price. It has turned my Fender Jazz ino old school wall art. The fell is fantastic, if you have small hands the slim neck feels better than my jazz bass. The sound is also way better than my jazz that has DiMarzio pups on it. I also went and bought the Cort A5 beyond. I am well impressed with Cort basses.
