Gear
Here's a list of the gear I use
Basses
Fender Highway One™ Jazz Bass
(made in the U.S.A. in December 2005)
- Alder body, rosewood fretboard
- Crimson Red Transparent
- Leo Quan BadAss Bass Bridge II (slotted)
- Fender Custom Shop ’60s Pickups
- Dunlop Straplok® Dual Design
- tuned EADG
This is my main bass and was my only bass for many years. I bought it new in 2006 and upgraded the pickups and the bridge soon after. I played hundreds of concerts with it and it is currently my main JazzyBIT bass.
Fender ’62 RI Precision Bass
(made in Japan in 1997)
- Alder body, rosewood fretboard
- Ocean Turquoise Metallic
- Blackstar Guitars pickup & wiring harness
- Dunlop Straplok® Dual Design
- tuned EADG
My Precision Bass which I use with Urma, Amalia Gaiță and Paperjam.
Warwick Corvette Standard 4
(made in Germany in August 1996)
- Ash body, wenge fretboard
- Honey Violin
- Dunlop Straplok® Flush Mount
- tuned BEAD or BbEbAbDb
I got this bass from eBay in 2012 because I needed a more aggressive sounding bass for Sunset in the 12th House. Also I did not want to get a 5 string, so I strung it BEAD or BbEbAbDb.
Amplifiers
Markbass Mini CMD 121P
(made in Italy in February 2011)

Got this very light and good sounding bass combo in 2011 and played it a lot since then. Very portable!
Markbass Traveler 102P
- 2×10” extension cabinet, 400 W, 8 ohm
Pedalboard
- Line 6 HX Stomp™

Loving the pedals, but the musical context must allow their use.
