Ah okay thanks, is there any difference between the Davie504 model and the standard other than finish? I'm in the Midlands so I'll have to sort a day trip out 😁

Sounds great, I'd love to try one out, will have to scour the local shops, or do you have a UK base where people can try things out? Slim jazz neck sounds fab, always prefer those necks.

Morning peeps, I've had my eye on a Chowny Retrovibe Evo for a while now (the standard one or the Davie504 model), has anyone ever had/played one? General thoughts on it? I'm looking for that Stingray-esque kinda sound and the Evo seems like a good choice over an OLP or a SUB ray4.

I don't know if anyone's already mentioned these but I've listened to Papanegro a fair bit over the years and loved their funky basslines They do sing some songs in English too. I.AM.GOD in particular is a snazzy little number.

I started a topic on this which has turned out pretty funny 😂 All the names of everything I've owned is on there

Hi all, Thought this might be an interesting discussion, does anyone else name their instruments? Guy Pratt's "Betsy" comes to mind. I've always named mine ever since I got a Strat when I was 16 and my subsequent basses, and they tend to be somewhat based around the colour of the instrument. I'll list everything I have owned and named over the years. 1989 Fender Strat, Red - Scarlett Tanglewood Acoustic - Calliope Black Yamaha classical guitar - Jet Mustard Yellow Yamaha RBX - Shielah Schecter Riot 5 session - Kiara Warwick Corvette, Black - Dana Dingwall NG2 Combustion, Red - Rosalie Fleabass, Blue - Katara Marcus Miller Sire V7, White - Cirilla I think that's all of them. Anyone else weird like me? Nobody? 😏

Oh actually I might be off, shifts are being rotated at work so I may be available. Will let you know as soon as I know more 🤞

I'll start one soon 😁

I have checked it out, was thinking about it but I'm afraid I'm working that day. Just after a holiday too so I can't book it off. Would of loved to go

Same kinda thing The new Reverend Raymond Bass looks pretty sweet, other than that I'm interested in the EHX bass mono synth. Was really hoping Sire were working on a MM stingray kinda vibe. Ah well.

*Waves* I'm Chris from Stoke-On-Trent and I'm 26, been playing guitar since I was 15 but predominantly bass for roughly 8 years on and off. Started with a beaten up old Yamaha RBX374. I used to be in a prog metal band Construct where I used a Schecter Riot 5, a Warwick Corvette and a Dingwall Combustion to shove some slap bass into the prog metal genre. Recorded 1 album and gigged a lot. Sold them all now so I have a Marcus Miller Sire V7 and a Fleabass, I mainly play funk, pop, rock etc. Looking to start recording covers, streaming that sort of thing. Damn I miss that Dingwall. Anyway I'm fed up with talking bass with my friends who don't really care 😂 so I'd thought I'd try a forum Peace, Chris P.S. Does anyone else name their instruments?
