I play a Rubner 5 string Bass made in 1981 with Tomastik spirocore strings. My bow was made especially for me by the Ukrainian Instrument maker Slava Martinochenko. I use Nymans Swedish bass rosin.

For composition I use a G5 Mac running Logic pro 7 and Coda's Finale 2007 together. The Logic pro is used to handle samples and the Finale notation program which is the finest in the world, is used to produce scores and parts.

I have a pair of Fostex PM-1 self powered speakers and a SL-990 XP master keyboard by studiologic. All the equipment that I use for composing is supplied by track7music for which I am very grateful and which has speeded up and simplified my creative process.
