JOHN NORWOOD FISHER plays a Warwick thumb bass with a bubinga and wengewood body, a fretless Fender bass and an Alembic bass, with Dean Markley Blue Steel strings, through an EBS-1 preamp and a Trace Elliot MP-11 mini-programmable preamp and an Eventide H-3000 SE Ultra-Harmonizer. with a Rockman Mini-Octopus for the switching. He also uses EPS-600 and Trace Elliot RA-500 SuperX power amps and two SWR Goliath speakers.
