Not only does have such coveted items as an IN-2, he has a 70s Superfilter equipped custom and a Fender with Series guts. He needs an invite to our little party! Anyone know him? hieronymous Senior Member Username: hieronymous Post Number: 1021 Registered: 1-2005 Posted on Thursday, January 12, 2012 - 9:13 pm:    I was going to post about this too! Love the Jazz with the Alembic pickup at the neck and crazy guard for the extra controls! afrobeat_fool Senior Member Username: afrobeat_fool Post Number: 411 Registered: 7-2009 Posted on Thursday, January 12, 2012 - 11:23 pm:    That is one sick SII lefty. Think the extra switches by the horn are for ???? LED's for sure. He's definitely SWR sponsored. I really like those blue combos. He is a San Fran player. I looked at his website and no pic's of him but there is a big one of that custom headless 6st bass.

He was a fellow Fender man at the Blue Bear School of Music circa 1972-73 at the old Ocean Ave. location. When I first arrived, a whole slew of bass players had modified their J Basses with Alembic stuff, though I couldn't tell you what, exactly, except they all had millions of knobs and a really thick, rich sound. I ran into Jerry at a NAMM show a few years back and he told me he's teaching, among other things. I remember him as a great guy! Those were magical times, with Chris, Kevin and Bonnie Hayes; Mark Needham (producer for several industry giants), etc. dfung60 Senior Member Username: dfung60 Post Number: 535 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Friday, January 13, 2012 - 7:18 pm:    FYI, the bass he's holding is a headless through-body Modulus Quantum. I was pretty sure of the shape and configuration, but asked Geoff Gould who confirmed it.

A man with excellent taste! Then again, it might be the 250 model, as it does seem a bit small when I look at it again. They have LED meters, too. I still have a complete set of them (Including the 100 watt) packed somewhere in my music storage room, and spare 750's, too. Way too heavy to use, though, for this old guy these days. He does have a lot of cool stuff!
