Influences

When I was a kid I listened to and played a lot of jazz fusion so I'm heavily into Jaco Pastorius and Stanley Clarke. On the heavier side I like listening to Pantera and Metallica so I especially dig the playing of Robert Trujillo and Cliff Burton. Paul McCartney has also been an influence on me.

For basses I currently have a Fender Jazz, a fretless Precision, and an Ibanez SR500. The amp I use to play out is a super reliable crate B200 solid state head with a Peavey 410 cab.
