5.'79 Ric 4001 (converted to a fretless by ME! *Oh, the HORROR!* modified in '86 with EMG J & HB w/EXB tone control, then added DiMarzio X2N-B to the mix (on a separate output) THEN yanked it all and put a Seymour Duncan 1/4 Pound J pickup in the bridge. Now has Duncan Rick replacement pickups with a Barcus Berry BB Jr. contact piezo into another PA2 on a separate output. Oh, did I mention I made it FRETLESS?!! Sounds AMAZING!!!

Effects:
Lots and lots of effects.

All the above into a Sansamp RPM and RBI, 400w Crown stereo power amp into an old Peavey 1x15 and Ampeg 4x10 with tweeter.

Previously Owned Gear
No name EB-O copy and Univox amp when I started playing in '80.
Ibanez Roadstar, black (2+2 headstock) modified with a Badass bridge, new P pickups and added humbucking bass soapbar to bridge position
into a Peavey Basic40.

Got my Ric. Then a Riverhead bass, can't remember the model...it was nice, had a cool 2+2 headstock that was slotted for two of the tuning keys like a classical guitar and the other two were like a normal headstock mount. Had an Ovation semi-hollow fretless.

Had a Marshall solidstate bass head into a Peavey 1x15.
Had a Mesa/Boogie Bass400 into (2)Ampeg 8x10's and a Bagend 18" cab when I was touring/playing A LOT.

LOADS of different effects pedals through the years. First pedal I ever bought at age 12 was an Ibanez Tube screamer...not a bad choice for a 12 year old, huh?

That's pretty much it for bass gear I've owned.
