Condolences to Will's family and friends. I always enjoyed chatting with Will.

Well crap. I wasn't expecting this. I haven't been on here much at all for the last 18 months or so. Was looking forward to chatting with Will too. Bummed!

The other thing I forgot to mention was that a few weeks ago I got to play an Ibanez SR505 for the very first time (with the Barts, very nice) and Will was the first person that came to mind when I started playing it. Ibanez should fork some cash over to Will's estate for him being a very real ambassador for the SR505.

My name is Gary. Will was my stepfather.
I’d like to thank you all for sharing your kind words, thoughts and memories.
I will absolutely be sharing the link to this memorial onto my family. They will really enjoy the reading.
If anyone can offer assistance on identifying and re-homing some of these guitars, please reach out to me at

Thank you all

Gary, your step-father’s contributions to this forum community were always welcome and valuable. Wishing you and your family the best.

Good luck with everything and make sure you are getting honest feedback on the values of his equipment and instruments, as it sounds like you’re working on repurposing his bass gear. The TalkBass community is generally a tight, respectful and honest community. Maybe one of the site administrators can offer an assist if needed.

I glad you found this. I called your family after finding out about him. He is very much missed here!

Noooo. I am rocked. We didn't talk much, but I remember him cracking me up quite a few times. Loved him some Sitka. This is sad..
