Influences
My era is late 1960s to mid-late 1970s. I suppose that encompasses most of the great (and less great!) bands of those times. It’s impossible to name everyone!
During Covid I taught myself to read music and, more recently, I’ve revisited music reading by playing sections of classical material. It’s an interest rather than it being part of playing in a band.
Instrument experience:
- Bass Guitar:
- Advanced
- Upright bass:
- Beginner
EQUIPMENT
I play fretted and fretless basses: two Takamine basses, three Fenders and six Hofners. There are one or two experimental basses, incl. an upright bass. I’ve a Genz Benz rig and a Trace Eliot setup (because it’s a bit lighter to carry!)
