Bill’s a great guy and a mighty fine bassist. He was nice enough to come to one of my clinics in Chicago quite a few years ago and since then I’ve run into him many times at NAMM shows and such. We’ve played together a bit, too and it’s always a pleasure.
I’ve had a few students who have come by with lots o’ strings. I do my best to help them achieve their goals!
