	Pirastro Strings I've used Obligatos on all of the recordings I'm on up until 2007. Recently I've made the switch to their Evah Pirazzi set, and I've recently switched to their new "Ultra Sensitive" electric bass strings. I also use Olivs on the G, D, and A strings of my back up bass (which has never sounded better). AMT Bass Mic A great acoustic bass mic that goes with me everywhere. Nordstrand Basses I have a beautiful custom made SC6 6 string that has, among other things, a chambered alder body. I can't say enough about how well this bass is made and how great it sounds.
