I try to find my own sound, but some people said you can hear Billy Sheehan's influence in my playing very much. I take that as a huge compliment! Besides that, I'm trying to bring out sounds that you would not expect from a bass guitar. Ok, others have played basses with distortion pedals before too, but have you ever played your bass with a toothbrush...?
Anyway, here's some examples how I sound like (and look like ;-) ...):
Uli Jon Roth, 2008 US tour
House of Blues, Chicago
BB King's, New York City, NY - feat. Alex Skolnick and Joe Stump
"Ghostbusters" with Eleanor Academia - Ray Parker Jr. on vocals
"Hallelujah, I love him so" with Beauty and the Bass

Classical style: "Bach Cello Suite 1 Prelude in G Major":
