About Me

I play bass. Currently between bands, but I have a few things on the go, including a Pink Floyd tribute show (if I can ever get everybody together at the same time).

My Interests

Fellow musicians from around the world and local muso's and producers who need some freelance bass work done :)

Rules of acquisition

Bid high, and bid late. I'd been watching a late 90's Ibanez ATK 300 bass on eBay. They're quite rare, as they were discontinued, and recent re-issues are a bit of a let-down in terms of quality. The ...

Folks who know me are aware that I _really_ love my Warwick bass. Well, it had a bit of a mishap, where a small but crucial component broke. Being a fairly handy sort of guy, I did some home luthiery ...
