I'm primarily a bassplayer looking for other players who are interested in sharing ideas and maybe writing. My primary goal is to have fun but I enjoy sharing good material with the public. I used to play professionally and not a stranger to the stage.

EQUIPMENT
My primary bass is a Marcus Miller Sire M7 5 String. I can also be found playing my Fender Jazz fretless 4 string, or my Ibanez SR 4 string.
I also use a gibson sg when I play guitar.
My bassamp for gigging is an classic ampeg svt head through a hartke 4x10 cab (though I don't gig much anymore and carting this crap around is a pain in the arse). My rehearsal/practice amp is a warwick sweet 25.1, which is far more manageable. For guitar amps, I have a guilty pleasure for line 6, so I have a spider 3.
