EQUIPMENT
I've had my '57 Precision since 1996 -- it's my main bass now. I have owned and played Fender Jazz, MusicMan, Hofner, Gibson and a few other brands over the years.
I play through an Ampeg combo amp, with a Sansamp Tech21 Preamp. This rig works great in clubs, and hooks up to the Mains for larger venues.
I also play a Taylor 310CE acoustic guitar through a Fender Acoustasonic amp, processed with a Fishman Aura.
