Hay is for horses. James, not Jame's...:p;)

 

That ARtisan is a really fine bass. The real Steinies from the early 80's are a totally different beast entirely - one piece graphite, no wood at all.

 

The more recent models are all wood, usually bolt-on necks, though the latest Synapse series are partially graphite. They are still very fine instruments.

 

I love headless basses as they are small, lightweight, easy to transport, and balance well. They are somewhat of a dated look though that not many people care for anymore.

 

If I were you, I'd stick with the Cort, if for no other reason, the fact that if you ever get bored with bass, or wish to upgrade, a "standard" looking bass would be easier to sell.

Today, its not your grammar. Its your spelling!:)

 

Cort's Artisans are mass-produced instruments. The best Steinbergers were comparable to the best things out there, far beyond even the Artisan series. I don't know how the current ones compare.

 

They aren't anything like the Artisan in feel. Just too different to even compare.

 

Strangely, Cort made a Steinberger copy in the 80s, and they turn up from time to time on Ebay.
