Current Setup

Basses: Dingwall 3 pickup Combustion 5 string & 6 string; both with Pau Ferro fretboards.
Effects: Boss GT-1B fabulous fretless effect and very good everything else. Replacing it with the Boss GX-100, just haven't dialed it in yet
Amps: GK MB210-II & GK 115MBP. Decent rig that goes loud, thumps and still has clarity.

Influences and Teachers

No teachers for bass, never studied with anyone. The typical list of Jaco, Flea & Victor Wooten but then also Michael Manring (amazing solo player), Krist Novoselic of Nirvana (wrote some AWESOME bass lines). Nick Schendzielos of Nuclear Power Trio is over the top amazing, but also lays down a sick groove.

Hobbies and Interests

Fast cars and loud guitars!! I've been into cars and music my whole life. I take it easy in real life cars (mostly) but let loose in the gaming realm, where there are no consequences for a 500 kph+ crash in a Bugatti Bolide.
