EQUIPMENT

2 Ibanez Iceman... (set neck), both broken more than twice and repaired by me.

3 Brownsville "Bat Bass"..., Yeah I know what you're thinking, they where cheap, didn't sound have bad and by the time I was done "Hotroding" them other musicians wanted to know where they could get one.

1 Rickenbacher (copycat)..., I bust my real Rick' years back and found this POS on Ebay, I rebuilt it and whip it out when ever I need to cover some Motorhead tunes, THE ACE OF SPADES!!!

Amps..., currently a GK 750 watt model, I was going to put together a 1400 watt monster but by then I got sick playing with A-holes,

Also I ran thru a Crate G600 full stack, yes it's a guitar rig, I used to do a lot of BiAmping (the Crate ran dirty with a Wah pedal)to cover the lack of a rythym guitarist.

Pedals..., Distortion, Chorus, Flanger, Echo, Wah, Tuner (I hate being out of tune), and some other one that I messed up that made some of the coolest noises.
