The Markbass MB-1 preamp provides a natural and transparent boost that does not color the organic nature or resonance of the instrument's woods. In the Artisan Series tradition, Bartolini MK-1 pickups deliver a trademark sound with plenty of punchy and warm mids, along with transparent and brilliant highs for superb balance.

The combination of the Bartolini® MK-1 pickups and Markbass MB-1 active electronics are key to the versatility of the Artisan C5 Plus OVMH and its 4-string counterpart. Deep individual slots hold the saddles rock-tight, which provides noticeable tonal improvement by preventing unwanted movement and allowing string vibrations to correctly transfer to the body. Depending on string thickness, the dual-string loading system allows the strings to be loaded either through the body or from the top for optimal string tension that results in enhanced sustain, greater playability, and focused sound.

Putting the high-end workmanship of the Artisan Series on full display, Cort applies a rounder body shape on the Artisan C5 Plus OVMH that not only provides an iconic unified look on the traditional bolt-on (34-inch scale), but also delivers ergonomic comfort. The combination of ovangkol and maple, together with a warm-sounding mahogany body, provide an ideally balanced tone. Ovangkol shares similar characteristics as rosewood and bubinga, with a slightly fuller midrange and a top end that's not as bright sounding, while the strategically placed maple center makes up for the missing highs. Beyond the surface, these tonewoods deliver a perfect blend of balanced tone. Both the 5-string and 4-string models offer a luxurious aesthetic that's hard to resist, given the ovangkol's blend of cinnamon-brown and darker streaks that evoke a classy vintage look.
The Artisan C5 Plus OVMH bass follows the tradition of Cort's Artisan Series, offering premium workmanship that's on full display with a unique body made from an ovangkol top, mahogany wings, and maple core.
