Description

Affordable but loaded with quality materials, components and craftsmanship, the Action Series basses define value for the aspiring bass player with versatile features as PJ, JJ and soapbar pickup options and active EQ electronics. Action DLX AS features The Markbass MB-1 EQ providing a very natural and transparent boost that does not color the organic nature or resonance of the instrument’s woods. The crystal clarity and natural warmth combined exude a passive feel with smooth lows, full-bodied mids, and bell-like highs.

ASH BODY A livelier and more resonant wood than poplar, swamp ash is characterized by a scooped-mids sound with a bigger low-end and clear highs for a more balanced tone. The open-pore finish enhances the resonance even further and the wood’s natural light weight and good-looking grain patterns are other positives of swamp ash. An ideal match for the Markbass 3-Band EQ system.

MARKBASS MB-1 EQ The Markbass MB-1 EQ provides a very natural and transparent boost that does not color the organic nature or resonance of the instrument’s woods. The crystal clarity and natural warmth combined exude a passive feel with smooth lows, full-bodied mids, and bell-like highs. The Markbass 3-Band EQ brings out the best acoustic nature of the bass instrument.

DUAL SOAPBAR PICKUPSDeveloped with tonal flexibility in mind, the PDX soapbar pickups deliver a strong fundamental low-end that is ideal for classic and traditional bass sounds. The front pickup exhibits a firm midrange ideal for fingerpicking classic rock sounds while the rear pickup provides more power and focus for aggressive music as well as for slapping with greater force than J-type pickups.

ERGONOMIC BODY SHAPE Found only on the Action Series basses, the ergonomic body shape, which fuses the best elements of classic and modern designs, was designed to reduce fatigue and enhance playability for extended playing sessions.

Our Thoughts

The Cort action series of basses represents some of the best value products we sell, not a penny goes to waste in their construction. They are by no means flashy but they don't need to be.

What you get for your money is a pure instrument with no frills. The Action DLX takes the original Action PJ and supercharges its electronics with the addition of Passive/Active pickups and a Pre-Amp Circuit with 3-band EQ, not only does it punch above its weight in playability but also now tonally it's pushing well into the mid-range bass category while still being a budget-friendly price.
