Having now binge watched all of your videos, I'm qualified to say that you are most excellent. While I love the playing videos, I also love the talking videos. Really looking forward to more from you!
Having more than 10 guitars-but less than 20, seeing this vid rid me of some of my 'acquisition guilt' (as I cross the living room they all scream,'play ME'! )I love the variety ,dislike the confusion,but you've made a success of it all ! Kudos !
Great job explaining what you like about each one, was very entertaining! Would love to see more videos like this of you talking to camera about music related things :)
To think this feature was pre-Warwick! An amazing collection that would be the envy of any bassists who enjoy variety in their instruments, and their varied tone. Now that Warwick rules the roost. Well done. Cheers.
@@CiciVonStrangelove That's so very kind of you to say Cici, and has made my evening! 🥺♥️ Thank you so much for the subscription too! (It's eventually going to be a music review page and stuff in the future!). 😊
@@CiciVonStrangelove That's so kind, thank you! 😊 I'm hoping to eventually do interviews down the line, podcasty stuff. Who knows, maybe one day we can speak in person, the rest of the trio too! 😃
Hey Cici, about a year ago a certain Dave Simpson did a video showcasing your Bass VI. It would be great to see you do your own video showing where it fits musically within your crowded and growing instrument toolbox. Cheers!
Lovely collection, Cici ! That's cool you have an Ibanez Roadstar - my first electric guitar was an Ibanez Roadstar. Hope you do an amp collection video as well. Cheers !
Hey Cici, I have the same Ibanez SR700. I am thrilled to see someone who has the same bass...and... THE SAME COLOR!! Mine is a 2012 SR700. Same exact controls, Bartolini pick ups. Yes, that bass is my favorites also and yes it almost plays itself. Congrats!! Thanks for the video.
Hi... Cici!!! I'm a Rhythm guitar but player... Been practicing with the Trio for months... Can't wait to audition, For the Trio lol, and just found out I'm a Demon on Bass, got a Jackson, and I'm Looking at a Esp Ltd RB 1005, Do you Know Anything about That Bass??? Troy from Alantic City 🌆
Hi Cici, it's Greg here lol Awesome collection and you're one of the best bassists I've met and seen and I am glad to know you as a friend as well as a musician.
The first bass I owned was also an Ibanez Soundgear, though I was pretty quick to get rid of it after a few years. It just couldn't compete with the Jazz I got! Great to hear all these stories though! I would love to hear the Satellite bass sometime!
I like guitars that make you play differently and challenge your sort of musicality haha - I bought a Fender Strat in 2019 and hated it at first but it's grown on me a lot! I still prefer my Ibanez guitars but after being forced (by myself) to use the Strat in both the London Calling and Skaardvark sets (due to bothj the tone and aesthetics), it has become a defiite keeper and I look forward to buying a second one! :D Anyway, great video! Please do more! :D
I know exactly what you mean!! And it’s always a nice feeling when an instrument grows on you as well :) Thank you so much, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch! Lots more on the way :)
Nice collection, great video! I had a relic vintage P that I liked a lot too, despite not being a P player of any sort. Stuck an anodized gold scratch plate on and it looked great!
Love it! When you said your Ibanez is a Roadster/Roadstar I think it's the second one - 'STAR' not 'STER'. Weirdly they made 2 different basses with those 2 different names. Who ran their marketing back then ?! I only know this cos I have a fretless Roadster which was my 18th birthday present; I thought I was going to grow up and be Jaco - guess what - I didn't 🙂 Keep up the great work - love your vids & fab playing
En verdad te felicito C C !. asombrosa colección de bajos. 🎸🎸Wow en verdad te gusta esto y se nota. Supe de tí por tik tok, y ahora te encuentro en RUclips. Estoy muy feliz de mirar y disfrutar tus videos .te mando un abrazo 🤗 y bendiciones. En verdad es un verdadero honor compartir una pasión como es tocar música 🎶💙👌 con alguien cómo tú !. Saludos desde México 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🍻estaría chingon 👍 que mostrarás también tus pedales para bajo que tu usas. 👏👏👏❤🤩🤩🥰👋bye !!!.........
Thank you so much! I’m really glad you enjoy the videos :) I have a video on my pedals from a while ago titled ‘how I get my tone part 2’, but I’d like to do an updated version sometime :)
Oh wow that's so cool I got into bass because of the Paul Gray DVD as well always wanted one of his basses but could never get my hands on one absolutely gorgeous bass
Nice bass collection! I would love to hear your thoughts on bass playing for guitarists. As you play guitar as well, I'd bet you have some insight. I would love to add more bass to my backing tracks, but really struggle trying to get a good sound and what exactly to play with the rythm. You do make it look really fun the way you dance around and headbang!
Brilliant, great feel and sensitivity, consummate expertise/playing ✌️😊💜 Love your collection and music room very cool✌️👍 I wish I'd kept some of my old six strings and bass' I'm down to four amps and three guitars, that's a luxury these days🧐😳😄😄
I will bet that Thunderbird weighs nearly as much as you do! I have a Vintage bass, and they really do sound great. You don't have any Laklands, apparently, but you should try them. Excellent basses!
Damn xD I'd not imagined you as a Slipknot type, tbh! XD Lovely collection, though! Also that a good bunch of your bass-guitars, have some quite nice stories! XD Cheers! -S
Beautiful playing at the beginning. Really nice collection, and the Ibanez Roadster would be early 80s I agree. Great description of your basses. SR basses from Ibanez are awesome to play they have super slim neck with amazing tones and can play any style of music. The higher the number the more expensive they become, but worth every cent. Thanks heaps for showing your bass guitars 🤗
Dear Madam, it would be great, if you list the Bass brands and models in the commentary text, as for some people its hard to understand what model exactely you show. Otherwise superb video thanks a lot.
I used to own a natural ATK because of Greg K from offspring but...heavy on stage for a guy who like to dance around ;) Now I stick to my player Jazz and Precision whi cover all of my Marcus Miller or Mark Hoppus urges :p Nice collection you have!
fine collection of basses but I didn't see your upright? Also seems you don't have a hollow body or acoustic elec bass? I used to have a Steinberger 5 string bass but now just have the Yamaha 5 string...which I love...I had a knockoff beatles violin bass I gave to my son awhile back...great sounding bass with flatwounds that were ancient...
Thank you! :) I’ll be doing a video on my double bass soon! I did have an acoustic bass but sadly don’t have it anymore, I’m hoping to get another one soon though! That’s a really cool story and a great gift for your son :)

My, my... those are some beauties! I have a handful of basses (I'm more of a guitar player and my obsession with collecting gear is only rivaled by Mr. Dave's), but none are quite as impressive, visually, as yours!

I am a terrible bass player, it basically sounds like a weird pentatonic riff when I play, but I love playing that Peavey. I really enjoy your videos Ms. Cici!

Thank you Kevin, I’m glad you like them as much as I do! :) Wow I bet that’s an awesome looking bass, and if you love hearing it then that’s the most important thing. I would rather hear someone play with feeling than someone who is technically brilliant but isn’t necessarily enjoying what they’re doing. I’m really glad you like the videos, thanks so much :)
That was fun, but it seems many of your basses are similar to each other. I owned a SoundGear SR800 fretless back in the day, an it was amazing but... Have a look at a Ric 4003, or 4001, and original Steinberger L...or a Gittler fretless. I've a 4003 and original L, but if I was still playing bass guitar today, I'd have a Gittler fretless. (I have a Gittler titanium guitar) Cheers!
Now I feel less bad about owning a bunch of basses. Oddly enough most of my basses are ibanez as well lol. They're sooo good! Love your videos! Keep up the awesome work!
No need to feel bad, they all have their own voice, and they all feel different and express differently :) Ibanez really are amazing, I don’t know how they make everything so good (and so comfortable haha!). I’m really glad you like the videos, it means a lot to hear that :) thank you so much!
nice roomful you got. I only got a squier affinity PJ, wouldn't really know what to look for in a bass other than, well, I picked this one because cos it's kinda like what duff mckagan uses and I always liked his tone and his PJ is stunning. I've always been more into guitar, but there's been some times I've heard a bassline and thought it be good to have a go so I gotted one for the crack. what are the main things you want in a bass?
Thanks so much! :) That’s as good a reason as any to get an instrument I’d say! If it feels and sounds good to you, and it means something to you then that’s what counts. Generally I want an instrument I connect with, that sounds nice even if it’s not necessarily versatile, and one that feels comfortable to play, although I can budge on that to an extent because I like how different basses make me play and think differently depending on how they feel to play. Also if it looks nice that’s a bonus!!
The only basses to ever be in my collection will be jacksons, i did have a similar thunderbird. Agreed on the "not best bass to play" statement, my issues was the weight it was BIG, heavy, for a skinny dude like me, it put some really bad stress on my shoulder.
Hii CiCi 👩 that was a cool video, very interesting your bass guitar library, yes each one has thier own personality, their own each unique purpose, from: Scranton, Pennsylvania 👩
I'm a bit late to this video, but what a cool collection! I have a question though: you mention that some of your basses are very heavy. I'm having the same problem and my back isn't the best. Do you use special straps to handle the weight better? And if so, which straps do you use?
One suggestion I have is to get yourself a Bass VI. Talk about making you play different! I got a Squire Bass VI classic vibe for very little on Reverb. The only caveat is you have to use the La Bella strings or else the low E just flops every where. I’d love to see a review!
@@CiciVonStrangelove i think I may make a video demonstrating how it can be used beyond the tic tack country western style. I think it’s awesome for ambient work. It’s not easy to play with chords and such but it can be so beautiful. I’d love to see a video of you playing it. There aren’t that many bass Vi vids out there.
@@CiciVonStrangelove the other thing you could do would be to split the signal in two. Send one signal to an octave pedal set an octave down with no “dry” signal and send the second signal into a chorus before combining the two for an 8 string bass type sound. I love piccolos!
Great vid, thanks! Love the Roadstar - they're awesome... So do you not have a 5 string? I'd have thought as a pro you'd have to resort to one at some point, or do you just have a detuner/octave pedal or something?
@@CiciVonStrangelove Yeah, yeah, I know I know... but Jaco never had to deal with a singer who decided to transpose from F# to flipping D# just before the bride and groom's first dance...
I like how she slaps all the basses while showing them (pun unintended), and wow, how come you have so many 4 strings? not a single 5 or 6 string for the variety possibilities haha
I didn’t even notice this habit haha!! Well, I’ve had and tried 5-6 strings in the past, but I didn’t really click with them, and didn’t find that there was anything I could do with them that I couldn’t do with a 4 string
My brother had a Satellite short scale bass in the early 80’s. It was a terrible sounding thing. It had been strung with flat wounds which made the E strung sound super thuddy. I am not sure what he did with it in the end.
look out for the old 80/90s made in japan levinson blade basses used,the old japanese ones were mostly hand made,and have fender shaped headstock,current blades are made in china/korea with different headstock,and are more like production line guitars,but the old japan made ones are great,this guy reviews a lot of made in japan basses ruclips.net/video/bN7xwGaJlHY/видео.html

At some point we’ll have to get a Ragamuffijn in your hands
Nice.
My brother had a Satellite short scale bass in the early 80’s. It was a terrible sounding thing. It had been strung with flat wounds which made the E strung sound super thuddy. I am not sure what he did with it in the end.
Oh wow, I bet the flat wounds didn’t do it any favours either, haha!
@@CiciVonStrangelove no, but we didn’t know better. 😂

Thunderbird hate will not be tolerated
look out for the old 80/90s made in japan levinson blade basses used,the old japanese ones were mostly hand made,and have fender shaped headstock,current blades are made in china/korea with different headstock,and are more like production line guitars,but the old japan made ones are great,this guy reviews a lot of made in japan basses ruclips.net/video/bN7xwGaJlHY/видео.html
