I've been playing bass since the early 90's and my influences are mainly Geddy Lee, Steve Harris, Gene Simmons Jaco Pastorius and John Myung, although I listen to a lot of different styles so I'm probably influenced by a whole lot of players I don't even know about..
My main bass is a Rickenbacker 4003, and I love the sound of it since I mostly like the progressive music from the 70's and especially the early works of Rush. I also play an Ibanez btb 670, a Fender Jazz Bass and a fretless Washburn Rock Bass.
