old_school_ska

I play all styles but my favorite is Reggae. I love shaking the room, and finding clarity in the low end. I use a variety of different basses depending on the situation. I'm always changing my setup. I used to be super into flats, now I'm super into rounds. Used to stick foam in my bridge, now I dampen with my hand. Always still learning, always experimenting!!
