Influences : T-Bone Walker, Buddy Guy, Hubert Sumlin, Brian Setzer, Charlie Baty..... pretty much just loves the Blues

Kit : Bert is a Fender man ( " it don't mean a thang if it ain't got that twang"), loving Strats & Teles, but thinks a Les Paul is okay with a P90 in the bridge.

Amps: solid state Fenders - indestructible. '59 Bassman reissue

Pedals- Marshall Guv'nor for clean boost.I found a DOD Mystic Blues in my bag and it's now my overdrive of choice. Big Muff if I'm feeling antisocial.

Detests Marshall Amps with a passion.
