About Me
- About Erwin Maussen
- Musical Background
- Originally playing (classical) guitar, first 'obliged' to play bass in a jazz combo, and then got hooked on this great instrument.
Currently a bass and keyboards teacher, playing bass in a big-band and -if requested- any other band (from cover band to jazz ensemble). - Location
- Belgium
- Additional Information
- It must be somewhere in the late 80's when I first got a 6-string Ken Smith bass in my hands, and I've been dreaming of one ever since.
- Your Gear
- In short...
Alembic Epic 4-string (my slap monster)
Peavey Grind 5-string
Custom made fretless 6-string
Belgrado custom made fretted 6-string (it was made for my hands, so what can I say: magnificent)
Ken Smith 5-string BSR-J (even this 'low end' type is a heavenly instrument, so don't be fooled when looking to buy one of these 'cheaper' models from Ken, they surely play great great great!!!!);
Ken Smith MD7 (7-string) - a wonderful piece of art
Ashdown MAG-250 rig
(incl. 4x10 and 1x15), Harkte 2.5XL (mainly for slap bass playing style),
Other stuff, like Roland GT-6B, etc. - Why you joined Ken's Corner
- Was dreaming of owning one when I joined... and now I keep on dreaming of adding a Ken Smith 6-stringer to my collection (since one never should stop dreaming at all)!
