The West Pole
- Gender

- Occupation
- [s]Sales[/s] Retired
- Current Setup
- Fender American Std Jazz V into Gallien-Krueger amps-- old Sunn 2000S cab w/ JBL K145s-- might still be a little Ashdown combo kicking around-- I may be the last all-analog bassist left-- also been playing the blue JCS that Jack gave me--
- Favorite Genres
- Whatever forces people to dance
- Gigs and Ensembles
- Currently unaffiliated
- Previously Owned Gear
- All kinds of crap-- EB3, Ibanez guitars/basses, Fender basses and amps in profusion, used to have an old Acoustic 360-- mostly Fenders now, but remembering how much I dug the Guild Starfires-- Epiphone JCSes now too-- after fifty years we've tried damn near anything we could think up
- G.A.S. List
- Looking for a reliable octave gizmo that will track all the way down to the low B-- also still looking for a pair of Darkstars-- forget the octave, little Boss rig works great
- Influences and Teachers
- Jack Casady, James Jamerson, Duck Dunn, Domingo Balinton, Karl-Heinz Stockhausen, John Cage, Arnold Schoenberg, Jack Bruce, J.S. Bach, J.P. Sousa, Mack trucks, the M14 rifle, Keith Emerson, Alberto Ginastera-- everything I hear, but mostly Jack Casady, then as now
- Hobbies and Interests
- Does it involve food, beer, music, aviation, scuba, astronomy or any damn thing else? I'll be right there--
- Disclosures
- I started life as a drummer, but I got better
- Teaching Credentials
- No one should EVER try to learn ANYTHING from me
WABass #122 -- Danelectro Club #95-- Gallien-Krueger (FTW!) Club #1123-- Flatwound Club #588-- Epiphone Club #191 -- Ric Club Probie--Fender Club #6.02×10^23--Probably Older Than You Are
"It's your bass, of course, and you may do as you please. I like and respect you regardless. But seriously. And happy almost Friday. This is all the brain cells I have left at the moment. I ask your forgiveness in advance." --Thuzzlefump
