You could always base it on David Johansen's "Funky but Chic"...Call it "Frumpy but Chic".

I could, but am already going down a darker path...

Go figure.......darker.....can I get a harumph?

 

[Holdsg]

no, but you get a rim-shot and a bump-pah

I'll take and it!....

Or mai tai........

Had to bring it back on subject!

That sequence just made my day after a pretty rough 2 hours 40 minutes of meetings.

+1 that was awesome. Pics coming soon!

 

[RHCP250]

Here they are, taken with my cell phone of course so excuse the mediocre quality. I couldn't figure out how to get the most out of the natural lighting either Anyways:

And the clip:

We were a little pressed for time so there are a couple mistakes here and there, but overall I think it came out pretty good! Yes, those are dueling guitars towards the end

 

[GregC]

Yup...earth shattering

On reality ...only 3 worked....but still a funny looking bass...way over the top.....as spinal tap always was.....

He player this at a national earth day concert.....even more irony ...made especially for that concert

I think Carl told me 4 of the Chis worked. At any rate, he said they couldn't run all 6 at one time because the magnetic pull actually bent the strings!

 

[GregC]

OK....so I finally figured it out!

Doggone windows explorer!!!

Chrome seemed to work.

for comparison:

Blue Velvet (55-07 with humbucking CHis and Marcus Miller rounds):

I know we are playing a bit fast but that is the way the band leader wanted it....

White Lightning (ahem...Greg... does this meet your spelling test?) (PJ with flats and vintage pickups):

Ok - so flats sound good on a recording...

Yes, yes it does meet my test. You were writing it that way every time, so I actually held back for a while, hehe.

Clips sound good!

 

[GregC]

Have I mentioned how much I love the Quote in your sig Greg? Completely agree!

Thanks, Brian! Yep, it definitely gave rock'n'roll a needed kick in the ass, IMO.

 

[overbybr]

This is a great natural light photo...sweet bass too!

 

[MarkusBass]

Nice!

whatever!!! I guess I live for spellcheck...but even THAT did not catch that misspell...

thanks man!

 

[basspraiser]

just loaded up the CHI-love thread with some CHisonic pics I had in my photobucket account...including a "baby" pic of Mai Tai!!!

Too funny, maybe should have been a Jupiter bass instead with that kind of pull

And yes I know that it would be gravity and not electromagnetic

Thanks, Brian! Yep, it definitely gave rock'n'roll a needed kick in the ass, IMO.

Indeed.

 

[RHCP250]

Thanks guys! Pretty sure that recording was done with the bass set flat and all 3 coils active into a VT Bass pedal.

Who do I pm for a number? I know I've seen it a million times but I can't seem to remember.

 

[MarkusBass]

Well...44-94 is off to Belguim! Scheff still available!
