    Richie Kotzen is one of the most prolific musicians in rock. This is a guy who recorded an album of 50 songs to celebrate his 50th birthday, an artist whose material has evolved from hard rock and shred to blues, R&B and fusion, a band member who breathed new life into Poison and Mr. Big, and who made up one third of The Winery Dogs, a classic rock-influenced supergroup with Billy Sheehan and Mike Portnoy that gave us three killer records.

    One of my favourite instruments in my collection is my Squier Vintage Modified Bass VI. I wanted a Bass VI ever since I first learned about the instrument via its appearance in This Is Spinal Tap – remember the guitar that Nigel wouldn’t even let director Marty Di Bergi look at? – and finally pulled the trigger when funds allowed a while back. The current Squier model is part of the Classic Vibe series and it’s an affordable way to get in on the Bass VI phenomenon.
