The Dood On The Bass

About Me

Please check out www.danveall.co.uk

I am interested in making the sound of the Bass as dynamic and expressive as possible. With a view to using and developing different musical techniques. Be it, tapping ala 'Chapman Stick' or Slapping playing styles, to name just 2.

I am endorsed by and play Jon Shuker 6 & 7 String Basses ** NEW CUSTOM SIGNATURE 7 STRING ARRIVED! Click Shuker link to see it!** ( www.shukerguitars.co.uk ) into Powersoft D class power amplifiers, TECH Sound Systems Neodynamic cabs, TC Electronics FX and Alesis EQ / dynamics controllers and Roland MIDI Footboards.

When I'm not messin' about causing minor earth tremours, I am a moderator on the biggest UK based Bass Guitar forum, www.basstalk.co.uk

Those who I have played with/shared the stage with/supported with bands.... REAL, Paradise Lost, The Wildhearts, Feeder, Jim Martin, Xentrix, JoyRider, Captain Sensible, The Heavy Metal Kids, The Godfathers, Glenn Hughes, GUN, Paul Di'Anno, Dog Eat Dog ... just a few..
