Yeah johnny. Would you consider ordering a few of those cheap basses then upgrade them and you can sell them....maybe a way that's good for you and customers. Keep bass alive johnny. 🎸💥
I love Johnny Lee Long. His personality is infectious and always positive. He’s like the positive Black Pee Wee Herman of bass! And I mean that endearingly. And wow can the man PLAY that bass!
This why I was skeptical about ordering those over seas basses but I’ve heard that alli express was ok and Tolman but I see you get these basses and fix them to where they’re playable, you aught to start selling them Johnny everyone knows your a great Luthier Bro
Despite being badly out of tune along with the ENORMOUS amount of major issues going on with that bass, It’s actually a pretty solid sounding axe (when you’re playing the strings that are actually audible ughh!!).. I cant even imagine how a true Yin-Yang built at the shop in Brooklyn NYC would compare to this headache.. But Hey, at least now you’ve got something you can use for batting rocks down at the beach!!! Hahaha 😝
I’ll be following this journey. I got one myself last year. Same model and finish. I had exactly the same issues. I’m going to slim down the neck, round off the body, fix the stain, new hardware,brass nut, mike pope preamp and Seymour Duncan pickups.
Will you possibly sell it, once you've put those magical hands on it. I definitely would be first in line as a buyer. Prayers always going forth for you and the Queen as well as the hobo depot. 💯😇🙏👍🎸🙌
Dude, I never got the guitars ordered. You can make lemonade out of lemons, so shape that bass like a giant spoon to stir the lemonade with. Lifting you and the first lady up.
Awful service and product. 2 years ago I ordered a Mayones Viking 4 and paid for it upfront. Mayones were about to do a run of them so picked my colour and finish. Iwas told approximately 3 months for delivery, 4 months later it turned up - absolutely stunning, pure quality right through and well worth the wait.
i have a 6 string ltd bass the g and c string goes low when i play it the others are loud with higher output.Could it be the pickups belongs on a 5 string?I brought the bass used and it sounds good except for that.
................my DH Gate guitar took 7 months .......but it was during the pandemic.....a lot of shipping delays were going on......so i gave them some slack.......but for anyone who is getting one of their guitars or basses....stay in contact with the builder.....they will send you pictures of your guitar being built.......if you see something you want changed...they will do it to your satisfaction.....you can be unvolved with the building every step of the way....... contacting the builder directly is the key to receiving a guitar more to your satisfaction.....
Thanks for the heads up, and sorry for your trouble, but you know you'll make lemonade out of that lemon! I ordered a thru neck Chickenbacker that just looked too good to be true from AliExpress a few weeks ago after watching you wail on your REAL Rick, I was inspired to get into that funky slap bass thing you do. I'll let you know what happens... Peace.
They sent me the wrong guitar, I did the right thing by shipping it to its right owner they were supposed to send me my money back never heard anything else
Where did you find this company??? Sorry you kinda got ripped off, your a repair man so you can make it work, some how. May God continue to Bless you and yours.
Johnny, are you on Instagram or Facebook. I can refer you to a better company I have dealt with. Incredible how long it took you to get your bass. Oh boy!!! God Bless you bro.

Appreciate your wisdom and your prayers

Thank you for this video! It will be cool to see how this bass turns out after it's been "Hoboized"!

WOW! I saw one of these pop up on Facebook Marketplace for $500 and was shocked until I looked closer. Never thought I would see two in one week!
LUV u Johnny... but all you need is good P Bass with a fresh set of strings...U fonky mon!!
You should do a video or videos with all the work you are going to do with that bass so we can watch something a little different on your channel.
Thank You for letting us know about this company. I will keep you and your family lifted in prayer.
havin the same issue with a " guitar center" outta china whos claiming my bass was delivered NOPE oh well $45 bucks
lol yeah, knockoff electronics usually never work...just the volume. I only buy them to save money and remod

I bought my copy from a store on Aliexpress and it was good out of the box.
How did you find this company?
If I have to do all that to a bass to make it play, I would just throw it in the trash.

Best to avoid DH Gate basses completely. I bought two in the past and same old song and dance. Took months and arrived unplayable.
IF anybody can make it sound good... it's you
Johnny, are you on Instagram or Facebook. I can refer you to a better company I have dealt with. Incredible how long it took you to get your bass. Oh boy!!! God Bless you bro.
Facebook & Instagram
Whats the company? I'd like to know...
