Have not seen a thread dedicated to him yet but I always will remember him for his work with Mad Season and Layne Staley.

If anyone knows more about the gear he used or any other stories relating to him please share.

I dug Mad Season, I haven't listened to it in quite awhile, time to dig it out.

Just bumping this thread, can anyone ID the year of his Fender Jazz bass?

I think it was a 71. But someone here on TB owns that Jazz Bass now.

+1. There were rumors that another disc was in the can, but never released. Anybody know anything about that ? One of my fave songs to play is "Wake Up". Ultra simple, but sounds sooo sweet.

Still one of my favorite albums, so he got that tone with a jazz bass? I always wondered what he used.
