And what used to be called their "all about the bass" series. It looks like Nathan King isn't doing so much of that as it mostly seems to be Lee and Cici these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassmanPaul Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 The guitar player seems to be singing slightly below the note. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverinebass Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Ashdown seem to be getting quite a lot of the YouTube type bods to do content for them. Daisy Pepper seems like another who seems to live at Ashdown HQ. Maybe they keep them all in a freezer and wheel them out of cryostasis when they need a new pedal or amp demo filmed. I guess it's a smart marketing move to get folk in who the kids know. After all, most of their original endorsees are either dead or well into their 60's. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marketing 101.... *NB: this is not a personal comment aimed at Cici. It is a 'general' comment on the clearly visible marketing approach of many companies at the moment.

CiciBass Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 (edited) Cici here! Well, sadly I can’t help being a girl, and I have long hair because I like it. It has nothing to do with my playing, and I’ve never rested on my looks to gain followers, nor am I interested in anyone who does. I take great pride in being the best musician I possibly can be, and it’s about the music for me. I also dedicate a lot of my time to trying my best to help other people pick up the instrument, sharing any info I have, and seeing where I can push the instrument in my solo bass jams. I’m not interested in being an ‘instagram girl’ so please don’t diminish me to that, and take the time to truly look at what I do (whether you like it or not is fine). Thank you.

Hellzero Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Hi @CiciBass, glad to have you here and, of course, welcome. 😊 PS: Could you tell Nathan to stop turning all knobs he sees in all possible positions just for the sake of turning them? 😉😂 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linus27 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Welcome to Basschat @CiciBass and thank you for sharing your Ashdown video with us. Have also enjoyed your Andertons videos with Lee although I wished you'd asked me to do the recent fretless one you did 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
