Band: Slavator

Sandviken / Sweden

Hi!

just visited your leftybass site, it kicksass!

Well im born 1987 in Sandviken, Sweden, my first musical influences where my fathers Black sabbath, deep purple, AC/DC and especialy ZZ Top.
Standing in front of the mirror playing airguitar and screaming. at age of
10 i started serius with music and picked up the guitarr wich was an accustic steelstring somethingguitarr.

but i quickly got tired of the guitarr and droped the music intreset for a while, at december the same
year i belive it was i saw Cliff burton in metallica with his screaming Rickenbacker, and after that i was totally sold on the bassguitarr. i
started on a musicschool where you go afternoons 20minutes a week and play for a teacher.

but by then i wasnt that serious with the playing..at age of 14 i began playing in bands and take it more serious. Today im playing in a band called "Slavator" (www.slavator.cjb.net) wich plays old school thrash metal, and i hope we will get signed soon, wich we according to many, will.


I use an Ibanez GSR200L bass and a Behrigner Fullstack(topp, 410, 115). with slavator i use Overdrive to get it sound alittle bit dirtier and fill
out the guitarr.
