Cort Space 5 Headless 5-String Bass Guitar

The Cort Space 5 revives a revolutionary spirit, bringing the compact, headless bass concept back with modern refinements. Designed for bassists who value mobility without sacrificing tone, this instrument combines a nostalgic nod to the 80s Space line with the premium specifications of Cort's renowned Artisan series.

Whether you’re traveling between gigs or looking for an instrument that relieves shoulder strain during long sessions, the Space 5 offers a balanced, lightweight experience with a sound that punches well above its weight class.

A Palette of Premium Tones

At the heart of the Space 5 is a commitment to sonic versatility. The instrument is crafted to deliver a wide dynamic range, ensuring you can find your voice whether you are laying down a thick groove or taking a melodic solo.

Bartolini MK-1 Pickups: These pickups are known for their superb sound quality, preserving the natural tone of the woods while delivering punchy, warm mids and transparent highs.
Active 3-Band EQ: Fine-tune your sound on the fly. The active preamp allows you to boost or cut low, mid, and high frequencies, giving you control over your mix presence directly from the bass.
Poplar Burl on Maple: The soft maple body provides a tight, focused low end, while the poplar burl top adds complex visual character and balanced resonance.

Engineered for Comfort and Balance

The most immediate benefit of the Space 5 is its headless architecture. By removing the heavy headstock, the bass shifts its center of gravity, eliminating neck dive and allowing the instrument to sit naturally against your body.

7-Piece Reinforced Neck: Built for stability, the neck combines roasted maple, walnut, purple heart, and maple laminates, ensuring resistance to warping and delivering a focused midrange tone.
Ergonomic Body Contours: The redesigned Space body shape features deeper contours and bold cutaways, providing easy access to upper frets and a comfortable fit whether you're seated or standing.
Compact Form Factor: Its shorter overall length makes this bass travel-friendly, fitting into overhead compartments or tight spaces, all while maintaining a full 34-inch scale.

Smart Hardware for Solid Performance

Every component on the Space 5 is selected to improve the player's experience, from maintenance to performance stability.

Zero Fret System: The Space 5 features a zero fret to set string height, ensuring open notes sound as clear as fretted ones. It also lets you change string gauges without adjusting the nut.
Custom Bridge & Tuners: The proprietary headless hardware ensures excellent tuning stability, accurate intonation, and quick string changes, even during intense performances.
Convenient Truss Rod Access: The spoke-nut truss rod adjustment at the base of the neck allows quick and easy neck relief adjustments without the need for special tools.
