scrumpymike Posted August 18, 2017 Author Posted August 18, 2017 And here's a demo by Scott - you'd better sit down first! [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geuOuoVWQDM&feature=youtu.be"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geuOuoVWQDM&feature=youtu.be[/url] Quote
Rollin Thunder Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 they look like they make some nice bass's like this one but would prefer the squared head not the P bass type. great value, do they play well. http://chownybass.com/product/retrovibe-by-chowny-vantage/ Quote
crez5150 Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 They can have my money as soon as they bring the 5 string version out Quote

The ones I tried certainly played well. Quote

Really wish I hadn't sold the Evo Quote
three Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 Looks really lovely - Chowny's take on the Brown Bass and an impressive job. Soundly Lovely in Scott's hands too Quote

Really wish I hadn't sold the Evo [/quote] David and I have redesigned the EVO from the ground up. New manufacturing in India, better headstock, angled tuners, stinger pre-amp as standard. You should check it out. ;-) http://chownybass.com/product/evo-standard/ for the standard EVO or http://chownybass.com/product/evo-davie504-signature/ for the new Davie504 Signature EVO. Quote
kodiakblair Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 Those are stunners alright The house here is overrun by Peaveys so I doubt there'll be more basses. Dave-K can be very persuasive so the Super-P is going nowhere. Quote
Fisheth Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 Oooft, I like the look of these. Five string version would mean a sale of a couple of my other basses I'm sure. Quote
Trueno Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 Rather lusting after various short scale basses at the moment... Chowny basses are on the radar. Quote
Elfrasho Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 is it just me or are he frets chocking a bit in that youtube demo? Quote
TheGreek Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 (edited) Lovely...In a few years time these will be ridiculously cheap on the second hand market so I'll wait and steal one then. Edited August 19, 2017 by TheGreek Quote
LeftyP Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 https://youtu.be/VX4GiaVQcdk I've ordered one of the standard bases in the hope I can do what Scott does - some hope! Quote
Chownybass Posted August 23, 2017 Posted August 23, 2017 Thanks for the kind words all. We worked REALLY hard on these. Quote
