Hey all!

I have been playing bass for over 30 years. I've played all styles (except disco) and in all kinds of bands. Most recently a 3 piece in NW Indiana doing Hendrix, Zeppelin and originals.

I currently use a Warmoth j-bass body (corina) with a Fender HM neck outfitted with active Bartolinis (sp?). I use my trusty 1982 P-bass as a stage back-up (it weighs a ton!) My amp is a Hartke 3500 with a Peavey 4x10 bottom and a Peavey 1-15 bottom (Blackwidow). This set-up can handle almost any venue size from local bar to outside festival.

I also dabble in rhythm guitar and drums (See below).

I also have a virtual Band, The Wendels. There are only two of us "Wendels" Skip (that's me) and Hobart (known around here as .....um.....Hobart or....Hobes)

We have identical digital recording set-ups (Roland VS880EX). I live in Illinois and Hobart lives in Santa Cruz, CA. We used the telephone and the US Postal Service to complete our musical ideas. You can check out the damage at www.thewendels.com if'n ya like.

Good idea to let the rhythm section chat, alone, for a while.

All the best,

Skip Wendel
