I use Spector Bass guitars exclusively..and my main weapons these days, are a 5 string Euro LX Custom fretless and a 6 String Euro LX both fitted with two EMG Soapbar pick ups,and my basses are only ever laid..with Rotosound Jazz strings....Roundwound Jazz bass 77's on the custom fretless,and Swing Bass 66's on the 6 string.

I use Hartke Amplification exclusively also,which includes a HA5500 head and two 4x10 XL cabs.
This rig will be joined by the equivelent Hartke "Hydrive" very soon.
I also use a Hartke "Bass attack pedal/DI box,and a Harke HS 1200 1X15 kickback combo for practice work.

I also use a BOSS GT-6B bass effects processor,which is really being put through it's paces at the moment....Great tool !!!

I use KLOTZ cables at the moment and also for live work,an Audio Technica wireless system.

I have been working on a new website,but as yet it is not up and running...bear with me on this one eh.Having said that...You can find out more of what's going on in "Biscuitland" by checking out( www.myspace.com/biscuitandbass4 )I look forward to hearing from you there.

Over the years i have played Mozart to Metallica..Jazz,Blues Soul,Rock and most in between.If it has bass,i wanna play it,and if it has'nt,then i wanna add it.
With regards to my solo efforts,i would best describe my work as "Varied" i can't really be pigeon holed,and i like to constantly suprise the listener ha ha.So be prepared.

My thoughts right now are on getting the job done...whether that is taking care of my family and friends and working on those musical projects for myself and other wonderful musicians out there.And hoping that life gets that little bit better everyday for those who are much less fortunate than ourselves,and anything i can possibly to to help that come to pass,i will do...Hopefully through the language of music and reason.
Peace,Love and Respect to all of you...from ya BISCUIT.

I am known as "BISCUIT" and i am a self taught bass guitarist of some 19 years now.I play 5 and 6 string Spector basses exclusively,and have used them all with many bands during live and recording work over the years.I am predominantly a "Solo" artist these days,but will play with any musicians if the circumstances are right.I am an endorsee/Artist for SPECTOR bass guitars and also an Endorsee/ambassador for HARTKE bass amplification systems,and have recently been invited by Raul at Bass musician magazine to become a mediator for the magazine.All of the above recognitions,i am very proud of,and to be recognised by the likes of Spector,Hartke and BMM is very flattering indeed and i thank them all for their friendship and support.I have achieved much in the world of bass,and music in general but there is still a long way to go yet.I am currently working on material for my second solo album,which is keeping me busy at the moment.Having said that...If anyone out there should require some "Biscuitised" bass on their projects,please do not hesitate in contacting me.
I am very much looking forward to making contact with as many of you as possible.

My Influences are so Varied,that there is not enough room here to list them all,but in the world of Bass,my Top 3 are Jaco pastorius,Billy Sheehan and John Myung.

Bands and Artists are way too numerous,but i would say my biggest influences are from the world of rock,with the likes of...Thin Lizzy, Whitesnake,Journey, Iron Maiden,Judas Priest and more recently,and probably the best of all are Dream Theater.
Having said that,I love the great jazz,blues and Soul artists too..i.e. JACO,Luther van dross,Marcus Miller and the like.If you would like to get deeper,then drop me a line and i will be glad to give you the full range.
