This was a fun one to film! Love jamming with Lee and it was great to have the drums too :)
The mini switches are series/single and the single coils are the ones nearest the bridge. I know this because I bought one and tapped the pole pieces with a screwdriver before/after flipping the switch. Has to be series for both coils due to the volume jump and boost to lows and mids at the expense of highs.
Reminds me of the old Roscoe Beck bass almost identically?!
Spot on, it's exactly what it's trying to mimic
100% even the switch layout!
Roscoe Beck with a Schecter headstock without a doubt...
Fender RB from around the early 2000's I believe? Looks great tho
Having owned a Roscoe V for a time, one pretty sure I'd be underwhelmed by one of these. The R and D that went into the original was extensive, and you could tell. My biggest ever regrets letting that one go.
Yep… looks just like it. But the neck on the Roscoe Beck 5-er I had was an absolute nightmare- way too thick to be comfortable. Let’s hope these don’t replicate that feature if they make a 5 string!
Excellent video Andertons! I love watching these two. More bass videos please!!!
Roscoe Beck vibes, notch notch!!
Very much a Roscoe Beck copy. If they had a five, I’d be on it
I was just getting ready to say the same thing!!😂
The intro jam is sweeeet !
love that last jam you guys did.
Gibson's semi-hollowbodies like the ES-335 and ES-339 have tops and backs constructed of layers (either 3 or 4) of maple veneer. My understanding is that the veneers are assembled in successive cross-grain layers with the top layer having its grain longitudinal to the length of the guitar. The tops and backs are approximately 1/4" in thickness after layup.
top notch guys, CC ON POINT AS ALLWAYS, LOVRD THE VID GUYS.
Lovely video, thanks. I would have enjoyed a side by side comparison with a comparable price Squire
Seems like a nod to the Stingray Special with a couple of toggles added. Great intro and outro jams!
Wow! Fantastic. 👍 Cici rocks
Thanks both for a great demo of these basses, they certainly do sound & look good. How is the neck balance ?
Wow! Seems like Cici certainly had her Weetabix before that opening jam! 🔥👏👏👏
Agreed. First time she's really given Lee a run for his money I think. Rock on Cici!
@@TheStratpickerThank you! :) for what it’s worth, I do stuff like this on my own jams (like Strangelove etc), but jazz is one thing that isn’t 100% my forte just yet, bar learning specific songs like teen town 😂 hope that makes sense
Thank you so much :)
Blimey - even with a Jazz bass in my hands, Teen Town is a Pipe Dream for this bass imposter! In my day we used to wish folk a Happy Christmas, but, in the name of modernity, I'll say Happy Holiday😃@@CiciVonStrangelove
@@TheStratpicker Haha you’re no imposter! I don’t doubt that you’re awesome :) Teen Town is one of those things I set myself out to learn on a fretless when I was about 15 (I don’t even really play fretless), completed it, and then went ‘okay I’ve done it’ and never really played it again 😂 here’s the finished result if you are curious though haha!! If I were to pick up a fretless now you’d think I’d never played one 🤣 - th-cam.com/video/WdmM0FMCFmI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jrKBYrleE-QHL4Q1
Merry Christmas to you and thank you again for the kind words :)
Woman by wolfmother for the end jam!
Maravilhosa Cici!❤🔊🔊🎶🎶
Loved the jam at the start
I got one today, it was delivered on a Sunday! It looks gorgeous and you can't really see the sparkle in the paint on the video, wasn't quite set up properly but it was decent, the neck profile needed a tweak as did the action, but then again I have never had a new bass or guitar set up to the best it can be. The switches just silence the neck side coil, one for each pickup. The old screwdriver tap solved that. No sharp fret edges and the only thing I would change is the Pot covers. I couldn't find the scale length mentioned anywhere but it's 34".
How is the tone?
Great looks.. reminds me of the Roscoe Beck Fender signatures.
AMAZING JAM WOW WANNA SING🎉
Looks more like a Fender Roscoe Beck IV
It is yeah, they refer to the switch as a boost, it's a single to humbucker, so I suppose that's kind of a boost.
Big Bottoms pt 2 for the intro jam. Spinal Tap would be proud 😂. Seriously though, awesome stuff.
Sounds like they might be coil split switches by the boost? The bass it’s bass-ed on those switches were three way with series/split/parallel for each pickup…. But if it’s only a 2 way it sounds like it might just be a coil split?
But yeah, looks great, sounds great, has heaps of configuration and it’s cheap.. what’s not to love.
Meanwhile fender are still using pay ferro and jacking up prices …
Damn...!!!😃
Great intro😎👍👍
😎✌👍❤🖖
Affordable Fender Roscoe Beck signature bass copies. Love the consept. Wish they were more common world wide...
Are those just leftover fender dimensions?
The switches are most likely series/parallel for each pickup
I don't own one (yet) but, from the sound, I think the switches are coil taps.
Yes, we need a 5!
Finally, some fresh looks and not the boring ass j and p style budget bass
More Jams all the channel
Two basses and drums sounds Great :*/*:
The switches are coil splits. one for each pick up.
Like it.
The Fender Urge ii was wild. Like a JPJ, three pickup thing. Heavy as a Chevy.
this is an exact copy of a Roscoe Beck Fender
oh my goddess Cici !!!!
SOMEONE RESURRECTED THE ROSCOE BECK. HELL YES.
if it's based on the old RB signature, it's series/split/parallel for both pickups. really wish they had the 5 string version as well.
the stu hamm "urge" was a mix of P bass and both jazz bass pickups. similar time period, different guy. both instruments discontinued.
This is a clear copy of Fender's Roscoe Beck signature model, not the Stu Hamm one. On the RB bass the switches are 3-way and swap between parallel humbucking - single coil (only neck side) - series humbucking, so I'm assuming that they probably do something similar here (not sure whether Soloking removed the series or the single coil option, hard to tell from just this video). Considering how much you have to pay nowadays to get Fender's RB bass this looks like a really nice option!
"Rose wood" can mean many things- true rose wood, the rose wood we all know and love- is Brazilian and is now unbelievably difficult to put your hands on. It was called rose wood not because of the color but because it actually had a very pleasing sweet fragrance to it- that lasted for years. East Indian rose wood is considered second best- and is also getting very expensive and difficult to get. But- now they call several different hardwoods that have a rich, brown hue- rose wood. So, I highly doubt this instrument has real rose wood on it- not for 250 bucks. It's going to have some other hardwood that has that rose wood hue to it- but isn't really rose wood. If I'm not mistaken the Japanese bought all the Brazilian rose wood from Brazil- not just what they had on hand at that time- I mean all of it. Brazil is not allowed to sell it to anyone but them. And you can bet they're not putting it on a 250-dollar bass guitar. Madagascar rose wood is becoming extremely popular- has a reddish hue to it. They're currently trying to slow down the harvest of it but- it's not working. Ppl are poaching it and apparently the trade is lucrative enough for ppl to and companies to risk imprisonment and/or serious sanction.
Reminds me of a Fender Roscoe beck bass.
I notice it has a pickup close to the bridge and I don't see that on many basses while it's basically on every guitar... Why?
Oh plenty of basses do, but it's not the ideal position for most bass tones, middle to neck is traditionally more desired for more low end. The bridge pickup is in the same position as a thunderbird and jazz bass bridge placement.
@@ChaelaThompson interesting 🍯 forgive my ignorance but are basses traditionally more focussed on getting a bright tone to cut through in the mix with drums and a guitar?
I still wonder why this has a bridge and 'middle pickup' and no neck, if that's where the 'spot' is
Sounds like your new to the bass, so I hope this doesn’t sound patronising. Most common basses don’t have a pickup close the neck like on a six string. On a Precision style bass, with just one central pickup, albeit split, if you want a warm full sound, simply finger the strings nearer the neck, and for a more mid-range sound finger the strings nearer the bridge. The tonal range you can get this way is surprising. When used alone, the tone from a pickup close to the bridge is very specific, a kind of nasal sound best suited to certain types of jazz. On my P/J bass, I sometimes blend in a bit of the bridge pickup when I need a less warm sound. Hope that helps.
@@LilSirAxolotl
Sorry, having reread your question, the bridge pickup on a six string often has a higher output and has a more trebly sound better suited to soloing. That’s not to say you can’t solo on a neck pickup, but that would have a warmer sound. A Fender Jazz style bass, or P/J (a mix between a Precision and a Jazz) will have a bridge pickup.
Oh those basses are based on the Roscoe Beck design fender discontinued
Except for the headstock, they're identical!!👍
Looks like a Fender Roscoe Beck model.
Oh snap I knew I woke up for a good reason.
This bass looks a bit like the Fender Roscoe Beck Signature bass.
The headstocks let me assume these basses are made by Cort?
No sir, soloking is a china brand, it's pretty famous in Indonesia and maybe some other southeast Asia country
@@totokaura9166 Thx for letting me know. I mean Cortech has some factories in China as well, far as I know. But ok.
I'm not a sir but a lady, btw.
That's a lot of bass for the price. Roasted neck, truss wheel, hi mass bridge. What's the catch?!
Now play Big Bottom
I need BASS
Can I you do a Sid vicious white with black pick guard rose wood fret board. And give it a funny British slang name. Like the dodgy skag or something funnier but in that direction. I’m here with other great ideas if you need any.
Please
with my bad eyesight, I almost read Sadowsky :)
Imagine apologizing for mentioning Stu Hamm while doing a bass video....... Are you kidding me, it's Stu Hamm???...!!!!.!!!!!!
Cici is just smoking 🔥 hot 😂
Trouble with basses - fine and worthy though they are - you just can't make them sexy as foreground instruments, however engaging and skilled the presenters.
I disagree ;) (lighthearted obviously! 😂) - th-cam.com/video/VnSm8N5KYvs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=3FiCdT2p3Jt8uaVf
Awful.
You guys think way too much of your meager abilities
You think way too much of your garbage opinions
