SEEKING

Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Keyboard.

ABOUT

Experienced bassist. Prefer a working band, but a startup is an option. Not looking at it as a primary source of income. I enjoy cover bands that are more interested in entertaining, than showcaseing originals or their talent, My belief; If you aren't making the crowd happy what's the point. If there's no crowd... that's even worse.

Influences

No specific artists. The bass players I really enjoy listening to aren't marketable. The ones that I feel are doing the best job are those that aren't trying to impress, but entertain the crowds with good music.

Bass Guitar:
Advanced
Acoustic Guitar:
Moderate

EQUIPMENT

Basses: Too many according to my wife, but I think I need at least one more... Of note, a vintage Jazz bass, Ric 4003, A couple G&Ls; Musicman stingray, a lot of Peaveys, some of them are unicorns, some are low budget basses. Theres a bunch of others.Several very good Ovation acoustics, Fender FB55 Banjo, Fender Mandolin. Several Keyboards. Mutiple amplifiers and speaker cabinets. Complete QSC PA , some Lights and a trailer.
