Our take on the Cort 5-String Headless Space Bass

The Cort Space Bass is a modern headless 5-string with a maple body, maple neck and 24 frets. Headless construction removes the headstock, which shifts the balance toward the body and keeps the tuning hardware at the bridge. It suits players who want a compact, contemporary instrument with a low B and a clean look. Against conventional 5-strings it trades classic styling for lighter balance and easier transport, and its active electronics and multi-scale options in the wider Space Bass line give it more tonal range than most basses at its level. Owners rate it highly, though some note the headless hardware and setup take getting used to.

Questions and answers

Is the Cort Space Bass good for beginners?
It is playable and comfortable, but the headless hardware and 5-string spacing suit players with some experience. Beginners who want a low B will still find it manageable.
How does it compare with a regular 5-string bass?
It is more compact and balances differently because there is no headstock. Tone is bright and modern rather than vintage, and string changes work differently.
Does it have active or passive electronics?
The Space Bass line uses active electronics with onboard EQ, giving more tone shaping than a passive bass.
What is the scale length?
The Space Bass uses a multi-scale design in the wider line, with longer scale on the low strings for a tighter low B. Check the exact model for its scale figures.
What comes in the box?
You get the bass itself. A gig bag, strap and tools vary by retailer, so confirm the included accessories before ordering.
Is the low B clear?
Owners report a usable, defined low B, helped by the longer scale on the low string in multi-scale versions.
