Bassist, composer, music educator, researcher

I use DR “Lo-Rider” bass strings on both my guitars, and D’Addario Helicore Double Bass Medium Tension Hybrid Series on my double bass.

I currently play a Yamaha TRB-5 fretless bass, and a Yamaha TRB-6 fretted 6-string through Universal Audio preamps.

I have used a Hartke 12” Kickback bass amp for some years now; it’s small and portable and doesn’t colour the sound overmuch.

I use Sibelius software for scoring, and Cubase with plugins from Universal Audio and Waves for sequencing.
