I consider myself pretty well rounded. I mean, I'm an honors student, but then again I've also been a petty thug in my youth. I've tapped a phone line or two in my time, I've thrown my share of rocks at that "abandoned house"(which we later found out belonged to Officer Nicholson). I've placed a roast pigs head on a stick on the front lawn of some people I highly dislike. Then again I've played free gigs at school assemblies, nursing homes, and I always take in the mail for my neighbors when they go on vacation. But enough about that stuff. On to the musical side. I play a 4 string Kubicki Ex-Factor which was made during the time period that fender was manufacturing these basees(Mine has been upgraded by Phil Kubicki with the circut board that fender cut back on. You see, fender left out several pickup configurations on the circut board that Phil Kubicki originally designed that bass with. AFter upgrading there are two active positioins, 3 passive, and standby)a Vantage 5 string, and some crappy bass that I don't even know how to identify.I also hope to come into possession of a Fodera Emperor Elite 5 string, with a mohagony body, walnut top, and maple neck this very saturday. It's very very sweet, in both sound and feel. I use a Gallien Kruger 1001RB head, and a Gallien 2X10 speaker cabinet. They definatley do the job.
