Basses:

1989 Guild Pilot 602 - "Everona" rosewood neck, EMG active pick ups. My second bass ever. I love it because it is very versatile and dynamic in tone. I can get a crunchy heavy metal tone or beautiful jazz tone with a turn on the knob.

 

2000Yamaha B4N - "Gandalf" - all natural wood, passive pickups. Great funk bass. It has a really nice clean woody tone. The frettboard is 24 frets which gives a little more room.
Strunz Bohemia - "Galadriel" - my beautiful upright, I am still learning more and more. I have an adjustable bridge and a Barcus Berry pick up and preamp. Life long dream to play this thing. I like making dreams a reality.    

Amps:

GK Backline 115 - great amp, it can cause a bowel movement if set up properly! Sounds best when in a large room full of dancing girls and cranking out the funk. It tilts back if I can't hear myself due to screaming guitars! Yorkville 50B - amazing little amp, I use it for small jazz gigs too! Nice warm tone and actually has some kick. The head phone jack is great too.

Effects: Boss Bass Chorus, Digitech Synth Wah, Boss Octaver
