Guest teacher profile: Johan Volman
Hi, I'm Johan Volman from Nijmegen, the Netherlands. I started playing the bass guitar at age 15. Since then I played in all kinds of bands, from bluesrock to Joe Satriani covers with guitar player Marcel Coenen. I am currently playing in two bands: Sweet Shade (indie rock, original material) and Slashback (coverband). I also would like to expand my work as a bass teacher. My main influences on the bass are: Jaco Pastorius, Geddy Lee, Bootsy Collins, Les Claypool, Flea, Billy Sheehan, Pete Trewavas and MarloweDK :-) Recent recordings: Viteffe - a tribute to Herman van Boeyen's Vitesse (2CD/DVD, Fonos 2008), featuring Michael Riesenbeck, Rudy Englebert (Herman Brood & the Wild Romance, Vitesse), Otto Cooymans (The Scene, Vitesse). I use a Fender '75 reissue Jazz Bass MIJ, a Music Man Stingray, Ampeg amplification, EBS Multicomp, Tech 21 SansAmp VT Bass, Korg DT10 tuner. You can always contact me for more information or questions. Cheers, Johan

: Hey Marlowe, I bought the L253 in order toget the backing track. However, there is no backing track without the bass. Is there a way to get this?
: Thanks Marlowe! I guess I better start saving up. I can't wait to get one. I'm positive if I get one then my playing automatically gets funkier right? 
: Hank: my sig bass will be presented at the Frankfurt musik messe in march. I dont know of the price but i guess it will be priced in the same range as Sandbergs California models. There is a couple of american retailers, check Sandbergs site.
