Chick Corea, Michel Camilo, Herbie Hancock, Jan Hammer, Eddie Van Halen, Dave Grohl, Dave Weckl, and Eric Johnson... and a whole lot more!
Instruments:
My heart lies with the bass.
I play 4, 5, and 6 string bass guitars as well fiddling around on both classical and electric guitars. I also make noise ..boards (synths) and a little bit on drums.
The bass tools I am currently using...
Fender Deluxe Jazz - 5 string bass
MTD Kingston Z5 - 5 string bass
Carvin LB76 - 6 string bass
Zon Sonus (Billy Gould) 4 string bass
I have been using a Carvin BX1200 amp head and Carvin cabinets and I am very impressed with the sound and power I get with it.
Deep, solid, powerful, and clear.
The bass holds it all together.
"...The trouble with the maples
(and they're quite convinced they're right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
and they grab up all the light.
But the oaks cant help their feelings
if they like the way they're made
And they wonder why the maples
can't be happy in their shade?"
"When the ebbing tide retreats along the rocky shoreline. It leaves a trail of tidal pools in a short-lived galaxy. Each microcosmic planet a complete society.
A simple kind mirror to reflect upon our own. All the busy little creatures chasing out their destinies. Living in their pools they soon forget about the sea...
Wheels within wheels in a spiral array a pattern so grand and complex.
Time after time we lose sight of the way our causes can't see their effects..."
