  1. Was bit odd when I got it, the owner said it had been set up. The truss rod was loose, the nut slots were well out. not a very good set up🤔
  2. Yeah clamped and left for about 3 days. Then a very slight rub down feels great now.
  3. Been looking at one of these for a couple years now. Then this one tuned up for good price, soon found out why. New to bass so looking forward to getting started.
  4. Got my 2021 Chowney swb1 couple of weeks ago. Real pleased till I found tge neck had crack that the previous owner did not tell me about🙁 Anyway managed to glue it up, looks great now with a set of Labelka tapes on. looking forward to learning to play it now.
  5. Has anyone fitted la Bella tape wound to a Chowny swb1. If so should they be fitted through the body or through the bridge? thanks.
  6. I have been in touch with Chowney and they are having long delays at the factory, so yeah still going. Looking forward to getting one later this year🤞

    Chowny

    Anyone got a Chowny swb1 fretless? Are there any images and reviews? Thanks 👍
  8. Are there any Chowny swb1 fretless bass owners out there? what are they like? 🤔
  9. Well had a grand anniversary away and time to ponder my tip toe into bass. It was a toss up between the rumbler and chowney swb1🤔 Have decided to go for the chowney, its a good price new condition and close to home. Thought I should let you know my decision, thanks very much, hope you have a successful sale. Cheers👍
  10. What are the views on La Bella black nylon flat wound strings? I know absolutely nothing about bass strings🫤 but do like the look of these and thinking of fitting to a short scale bass. 😬
  11. How do you get on with the strap button on the horn?
  12. I've for one. What would you like to know? Thanks, I have the chance of a used 2018 just wanted to know what they are like? I read somewhere that the head stock is glued into the neck😳 is it? Is there anything I should look out for when inspecting it? what is the fretless like😊 Thanks.

  14. Are there any reviews on the Chowney Scott Whitley swb1 bass? thanks
  15. Thanks, interested but will have to see if you still have it in a couple of weeks, 40th wedding anniversary will have to come first🤣🤣🤣
  16. Hi, is this still up for sale? Thanks John. Thanks for getting back, what would be your rock bottom price?
  17. I have been around the block trying to make a decision on what bass to buy with my small budget. started with acoustic then semi hollow, Jack casady Allen woody and others. Fretless or fretted?? My head aches🥴 now I have found an old Ibanez Roadstar rb760 looks great. Anybody got any info on this model all the reviews I've read are favourable.
  18. Seen a good deal on this Aria FEB-FL/F STBK Still struggling to make my mind up🥴 the aria (do fancy a fretless) Fender kingman, Ibanez agb200 or pos. Jack casady. ????
  19. Well, been looking at semi hollows, some great bits of kit out there. The two I have gravitated to are the Ibanez agb200 or the jack casady, if I can find one for around 400😬 Wish me luck.
  20. Really getting ahead of myself, looking at hollow bodies now, love the Jack Casady and the Ibanez AGB200. Better start saving😬
  21. Thanks everyone, some serious food for thought😬 I will be doing some acoustic and recording stuff, no giging really. I play with a local community Ceilidh band but try to play the fiddle with them. Like the the look of the epiphone jack casady, be lucky to find one in my price range😂 Anyway early days yet lots to learn first. Luvin it👍
  22. Thanks for your replies👍 some nice bits of kit there although Some well out of my price range. surprised to see a 5 string from gear4music, I get most of my stuff from them. Whats the thoughts on that, is it a good buy? New to bass but want to something future proof got 300🥴
  23. Has anyone got acoustic bass experience? What makes are recommended. Been looking at the Fender cd60sce Thanks John.
