About Me

My name is Rodney, my friends call me Rod and I play the bass I get my musical background from my older bro...bless him. I remember listening to Kansas, Boston, Zeppelin, Styx, Sabbath in his 68 f100 on 8 track, thank you Ron!! I always wanted to play the bass, and I absolutely think its the coolest instrument ever invented. I have a deep respect for other musicians, especially anyone going for it in their music scene....................I am a fingerstyle player that can play many styles of music. I am a huge fan of all music, and my listening background is diverse. I play Fender basses, 4 string through an Ampeg rig and various pedal effects. Long live the bass!.....................
