The Chowny Davie504 EVO Bass comes equipped with a single humbucker, reminiscent of other modern bass guitars. It has been wired up to a Retrovibe Stinger ’77 preamp, which gives you increased control over the bass and treble frequencies along with an overall sonic expansion. With its range of controls, this makes the Davie504 a very versatile bass instrument. Like his online music, the signature model bass will be perfect for funk with great clarity in chordal playing. Its versatility will also adapt easily to other styles of music.
It's not just the pickup/preamp combination that helps to deliver such stunning tone though. Alongside the electronics, the quality tonewoods help to enhance this model's overall sound. The neck, fingerboard, and top are all designed with maple, giving bright overtones, strong fundamentals, and great note articulation.
The Chowny Davie504 is designed by a relatively new guitar company keen to promote their brand by taking onboard new musicians with real popularity and artistic presence. Along with his more ‘whacky’ videos, Davie504 uses his bass guitars for funk music along with detailed chordal playing – much like a guitar at times. He knows what makes a good bass and has called his signature model “The Best Bass Ever”. It delivers a high specification at a remarkable price-point so would be ideal for beginner and pro players alike.
