David Bronze
Session Bassist
"I was looking around
for something a bit different when I spotted the Rimini.
I immediately loved the look of this bass, and also
it's relatively light weight due to the semi-hollow
design. The neck is really comfortable to play, the
finish is absolutely superb and the bass balances very
nicely on the strap. Amplified it has a lively &
versatile tone, with a very useful range of classic
sounds available between the 2 pickups." –

Dave's involvement in music began in his teens as a
harmonica player in a blues band. The band never gigged
and never even had a name as far as he can recall! However,
he soon switched to bass and began treading the time
honoured path of playing in a succession of local bands
which eventually led to his first offer of a professional
gig.
With the support and agreement of his family he decided
to give music a try for a year or so. That was over
30 years ago and he's still at it! During those three
decades Dave has appeared, on record or on stage, alongside
such household names as: The Art Of Noise, Joe Brown,
Belinda Carlisle, Paul Carrack, Eric Clapton, Roger
Daltrey, Bo Diddley, Duane Eddy, Dr. Feelgood, Bryan
Ferry, Robin Gibb, Bryn Haworth, Nik Kershaw, Jeff Lynne,
Paul McCartney, Gary Moore, Billy Preston, Procol Harum,
Ringo Starr, Solomon Burke, Ben E King, Joe Walsh, Paul
Weller, Mary Wilson, Paul Rogers, Percy Sledge, Bill
Wyman's Rhythm Kings, Tom Jones and many others.
He can be seen playing alongside Eric Clapton in the
"Live in Hyde Park" DVD, and the multi-platinum,
Grammy award-winning tribute to George Harrison, "Concert
For George". He has also produced several albums
for various artists. Currently Dave is proud and delighted
to be working with his good friend and hugely talented
singer/guitarist Andy Fairweather Low, touring and recording
as a member of The Low Riders, alongside some of the
finest musicians he has ever worked with; drummer Paul
Beavis and saxophonist Nick Pentelow. Dave can currently
be heard on the highly acclaimed new Tom Jones gospel/roots
album, "Praise & Blame" produced by the
great Ethan Johns.
