I own a Cortobass and it is an excellent Bass in short scale. Quality PUs, quality electronics and machinery. Quality wood, ergonomics, excellent proportionate weight. Quality styling and construction but most importantly: One Kick ass Neck.
The feel of the neck is simply inspirational. Great bass.
My guess is that Birdsong Cortos, Sadhanas, and Hy5's are the most collectable basses in limited production today. They are ALL "Hand built" in a 2-man shop and will NEVER be mass produced as long as they under the stewardship of Scott Beckwith. He needs to retire someday and may be forced to sell the Company which will use the name but will never be the same instrument again. Word to the wise - IF YOU EVER HAVE A CHANCE TO BUY A BIRDSONG..scoop that fucker up!!!
Scott's an incredible force of nature making incredible instruments. And though I've never sat down for a lesson of any kind with him, I consider him one of my main teachers.
Sadhanas are absolutely beautiful basses. For that matter, anything with the Birdsong name is absolutely beautiful. I really love my Cortofusion and am looking forward to seeing the tenor Hy5 I ordered come to life in their extremely skilled hands. Thanks for the comment and thanks especially for the compliment! Peace.

Thats incredibly catchy! Love the bass and the sound. If you don't mind me asking, how did you pay for it? I've had my eye on Birdsong for awhile.

I really need a Cortofusion... So amazing.
So warm like a P, but has it's own woody tone.
Of course the bass isn't without a great player!
Nice playing

nice basses from a cool company, get one if you like, but there will always be nice products in the future, luthiers building special basses etc.
Don't kid yourself thinking this is an "investment". It's not :-)
