I am based in Tauranga, New Zealand and have been playing bass for 40 + years.
Playing on festival stages with the likes of Talking Heads, Prentenders and Simple Minds on the bill in the 80s and Joe Satarani in the 90s , through various bands in the 2000s 

Playing in various bands and genres have enhanced my feel for the 4 stringed instrument. 

I have been using the Schroeder cabs now going on 20yrs and my 212PL is my go to cab , light and articulate through any of the heads or guitars I have used which has been extensive as I love to try new equipment. Some over the years ,Galien Kruger, Mesa Boogie, Markbass, Ashdown, Genz Benz, Hartke.
My go to amps currently are my Darkglass and Aguilar DB751.
Basses have been , Fender, Pedulla, Rickenbacker but I have always had my trusty MM Stingray. 
Currently have just recorded and up on Spotify is our Indie/Alt rock three piece The False Waltons, check it out.
