Favorite Genres
Jazz: mainly modern mainstream or early '60 stuff. All good music in general. Rock from the seventies: the real rock, obviously!
Gigs and Ensembles
Stopped being part of a band. Not gigging much anymore since years.
Previously Owned Gear
Too much, sorry!!! Dig this: a (beautiful!) black Guild Les Paul hollowbody sold to buy a cheap cherry red Gibson SG and an original '72 blocks-binding Jazz bass, sold to fund an... Ibanez RB885 in 1986. AAAARRGGGGHHHHHH...!!!
G.A.S. List
Epi Rivoli and Gibson EB2D.
Influences and Teachers
Every good musician I listened to in my life!!! Mostly jazz players: they definitely KNOW how to play an instrument and more important "when and what NOT" to play!
Hobbies and Interests
Biking, movies, books, sleeping, fighting with the wife......
Signature
Bass players rule the world. Let the glory to somebody else. We DO KNOW what it feels like being in charge!!!
