“I’m a fan of many different styles of classical and symphonic music.”

I’ve been an amature inventor for a long time.

I’m very honored and thankful if someone says something nice about my playing, but in general I’m very critical of what I do.

I plan on doing a lot more work on my own, and discovering and doing more.

I didn’t follow the standard rules of bass playing, and many musicians on many different instruments who became noteworthy for their unique or particular style did a very similar thing.

I listened to many different types of instruments and music, and have always tried to look at the bass as an instrument as opposed to only a bass.

And no again: My studio is not a first or any step toward becoming any type of businessman on my part.

It’s not art, it’s science.
