You got that right JJ!! Spoke to John, worked out the details of the strap, and it arrived yesterday. He knocked it out of the park! IMO. I love it! Pics to come. Hope to check out your band on 5/26 JJ.

Guys,

Could you provide me some feedback on the sonic qualities of the Chi Sonic single coil and humbucker pickups?

Many thanks!

Hey Holdsg - The tone almost brings tears to my eyes. I’ve been chasing a sound in my head - and now it’s been manifested.
But “There’s no crying in rock and roll”

Has anyone seen the new Skyline Ice Blue basses in person? I'm loving the color and inlay and would like opinions and pics if anyone can oblige.

Not me, Tex, but I'm definitely curious!


I see Bass Club Chicago has them in stock now. Unfortunately, their hours these days don't work well at all with my schedule (closed Sat.-Mon., open till 6 or 7 pm Tue.-Fri.).

I saw them at NAMM. VERY NICE COLOR and the abalone inlays were unique

One of my favorite colors for sure...

Here's a poor picture of my Ice blue JOCS-5 ( yes.. That's the model number) with my other blue basses..

The single coils are like a bit hotter j pickups on steroids....imho they have more lows and highs. I played mine the other day ( first time playing it with the in ear monitors) and it definitely has the most " grind" of any of my basses.

The double coils sounds fantastic ( imho) in dual coil mode... The single coil mode is ok...but they sound best in double coil mode. They are very thick and meaty sounding...

Hope that helps..

I believe they will take appointments for the weekend, but I think all the guys working there now are gigging players, so they have to balance it somehow.
