Part of the goal of bassfuzz.com is to use a consistent set of tools and equipment while doing reviews, that said I’ve proven in the past that I can’t always stay put with my gear, so I’ll make sure and document everything I can. First list of gear used was April 2008:

Main Basses:

• Squier VM Precision
• Rickenbacker 3000
• Aria Pro II – SB Elite 1
• LeFay Piccolo (Coming soon)

• Lakland DJ4 (Jazz Bass) - Added Oct 2009 – SOLD 06-2012
• MTD Kingston Artist (5 String, Active) – Added Summer 2009 – SOLD 10-2010
• Cliff Bordwell D-Bass (SOLD 9-2009)
• Rob Allen Mouse (SOLD 9-2009)
• Schecter Hellcat VI (SOLD)
• Birdsong Hy5 Shortscale (SOLD)

Update: 12-2012

• Been a year since I updated anything, so quite a bit of change reflected in the last year. 

Update: 1-2012:

• Updated page to reflect current gear.

1. Heil PR40 added for doing mic  work on cabs
2. Replaced amp with GK MB210
3. Replaced CB Ball basses with Lakland DJ4 (Jazz Style) as bass for primary recording.
4. Officially adding mic’d amp segments to all videos
5. Officially adding the MTD Heir 5 to the website (I’ve been using it for awhile though)

Major Update 12-2008:

1. The active J bass (CB Ball) will be the primary bass used in video recording.
   
2. I’m eliminating the ‘odd’ basses from the default recordings.  Listening levels are extremely low, and frankly they are odd basses anyway and serve too narrow a function.
3. The active J will now have samples from three positions, just like the passive P
4. The ‘in the mix’ sample will be recorded with the J bass
