Gear

 

So I've been a professional musician for 20 years now!! Wow that is right, time flies lol

I am not supper picky about gear. If is working for me I am happy. I also don’t like using too much stuff specially live.

Here is what I use live and on studio.

For live gigs:

Live I play bass guitar and sing usually.

- My Basses

Live I mostly use my 4 strings Fender Precision Bass Rosewood Fingerboard.

Again, super simple but super versatile. I can play rnr and make it sound supper strong but at the same time I can play something warmer and groovy. Love that bass.

I also own a 5 strings Music Man Sting Ray that I usually use on acoustic shows. I love that bass, but is a vintage one so I try to keep in my house :)

Recently I got a Fender Player Plus active Jazz Bass maple fingerboard. I can't wait to take this ababy out to try!

- Amps

I use the Fender Rumble 200 1x15" 200-watt Bass Combo Amp in smaller gigs.

I like it because I think is a very versatile amp, plus is very light and can do the damage.

It has 3 button voicing palette that helps to sculpts the sound even further.

Bright, contour and vintage.

I also love that it has a XLR line output so is easy to deal with sound checks etc.

Lattely for bigger shows I am using the 2 4x10 bass speaker cabinet 500 watts by Tech 21  

plus the VT Bass 1000 head also by Tech 21.

- Bass pedal

I’ve been using for a long time now the Tech 21 Bass Fly Rig Bass Multi-effects Pedal.

I like it because it has everything I use and a bit more.

A complete SansAmp, boost, chorus, compression, octafilter, tuner, and an XLR output connects directly to a PA system or your recording device.

Plus is small, witch is great! The pedal was inspired and built right after my husband developed with the company his RK Fly Rig witch I also use when I am recording guitars etc. 

I love the pedal and if you are like me and don’t like to carrie too much stuff I recommend it! 

- Microphone

Live I usually use a Samson Q7 usually or a Samson Q8X.

- Studio

I have a small home studio that I write and record my music.

Nothing special but it does the job!

I use Pro Tools form my music.

Also, I record trough a Focusritte Scarlett 2i2 audio Interface.

I run my vocals trough a TF pro p2 - dual channel mic preamp, di, compressor and eq. 

The mic I use is a AKG Perception 420

Guitars and basses I run trough the Tech21 RK Fly Rig.

Hope I see you guys around so we can chat more about gear :)

Much love
