Scott Goodhart has over 30 years of experience playing bass for all varieties of music including, but not limited to country, Motown, soul, pop, 60's-90's rock. He has a solid style and works to keep the pocket with the drummer, as well as add some tasty licks where appropriate.. Scott has a powerful rich tenor voice for lead vocals and harmonies come naturally. Scott is currently the bassist and singer with the band "8 Mile Bend", but is available when schedule allows. Scott is strong in music theory, can adapt quickly and is familiar with Nashville charts and number system.

EQUIPMENT

I have a Gallien-Krueger MB 500 and a choice of cabinets to choose from from a small 12" JBL, to an 18X20 (18" plus 2 10") Peavey Black Widow Cabinet (preferred)

My main guitar is a Peavey DynaBass 5-String. I also play a Yamaha BB1600 fretless, and an electric/acoustic bass guitar when the venue or song calls for something different.

I use the following effects processors.
-Zoom B1Xon multi-effect processor with expression pedal
-Boss OC-2 Octave Pedal
-Electro-Harmonix Bass Micro Synthesizer

My voice is good for low/mid harmonies and low tenor range leads.
