Chownybass Posted June 6, 2018 Author Share Posted June 6, 2018 With the impending release of our new Bass-Mopshere Chorus/Reverb pedal, we thought we'd tease out what we are making next. The FUNKYO pedal will be a monstrous envelope filter for maximum Funk! Estimated release about October/November. Definitely before Christmas. Updates to follow! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chownybass Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 (edited) New video this morning! We're actively looking for people to come in and film stuff if anybody is interest. Come alone. Bring a drummer. Come with your band. Whatever you fancy doing. We're happy to use the might of the Chowny empire* to promote your stuff. *actual size of empire may vary Edited June 8, 2018 by Chownybass 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chownybass Posted June 11, 2018 Author Share Posted June 11, 2018 New CHB for 2018 being painted as we speak. That flame though! 😍🔥 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_lefty Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I quite fancy a Bassmosphere pedal, just what I'm looking for - or should that be "listening for"; for my fretless. Do you do them in left handed? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chownybass Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share Posted June 19, 2018 New video this morning. Scott Whitley (on SWB Pro) and Danny Sapko (on Retrovibe Volante) lay down some funk in our studio. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burns-bass Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I can tell you which bass sounds the best... (The Chowny!). Found out you guys use Sico Simon for your bass set ups. No wonder they all play well, that guy is a legend and an incredible workman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found out you guys use Sico Simon for your bass set ups. No wonder they all play well, that guy is a legend and an incredible workman. SWB Pro is clear and warm. Volante is growly on the bridge pickup. And yes - Simon @ Sico Setups does EVERY single bass we sell - be it to a dealer or to a end customer. We'd be lost without him.

Nice looking bass and I'm a big fan of Aguilar pups and preamps. What's the thinking behind the unusual scale length? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One finish (Red Cedar / Maple / Walnut composite body, 5 piece walnut and maple neck, walnut veneer on the headstock and in a matt finish). Probably a free case.

Ideally wanted to do a shorter scale and 32.7" is sort of at the cusp of what works well with a low B. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
