Aguilar Amplification is pleased to welcome UK session bassist Dave Swift to their endorsing artist roster. Over the last 20 years, Dave Swift has been one of the busiest session bassists on the UK music scene. His association with Jools Holland has led to his becoming the house bassist for the popular BBC television show, “Later…With Jools Holland” and the “Jools Holland Show” on BBC radio. During this time he has played with artists as varied as Amy Winehouse, Al Green, Eric Clapton and Paul McCartney.
Of his new rig Swift says, “Now that I’ve switched to Aguilar gear I couldn’t be happier. So far I’ve been using a DB751 with a DB412 cab and the sound reproduction is incredible! It’s so muscular and musical at the same time”.
Playing in a wide variety of genres, Swift is often called upon his ability to double on electric and upright basses. “As the house bassist on ‘Later…..with Jools Holland’ I need amplification that is reliable, looks great and brings out the best in all my basses whether acoustic or electric. Now that I’m using Aguilar it’s Job Done!”

Bass Musician Magazine, a Virtual Bass Magazine Designed For Bass Players and Bass Professionals, is unlike any other as far as content is concerned. We feature a world class staff of diverse and extremely experienced bass players in their own field, covering not just the more or less "how to" approach, but looking into the methodology and personal experiences these players have to offer as well to gain insight on what we hope to make the focal point of this magazine, that being, becoming a better "musician".
Bass Musician Magazine features articles on the most influential players (known and unknown) of the day. Our regular columns cover a vast amount of musical territory with a diverse look at any and all pertinent info that will aid what we feel should be the main focus of any aspiring bassist, finding "your own voice".
We also present an unprecedented audio and video architecture within our virtual pages. We blend the "You Tube" experience with the educational process to better enhance your musical awareness and growth.
We feature "up and coming" players. Through our own experience with MySpace, Facebook and Twitter, we have seen, heard and connected with some truly talented players and we will do our best to bring these unknown talents to the forefront and give them the exposure they deserve.
As far as Bass Musician Magazine reviews are concerned, whether it is CD's, DVD's, books, or musical gear, we will take the time to prescreen for our readers whatever has been presented to us, and review only what in our opinion is a viable option for our readers to consider, so it becomes not just a "review" we're offering, but a "recommendation" as well in hopes of guiding our audience to some alternatives they may or may not have known about that we feel deserves attention.
As Bass Musician Magazine continues to develop, we welcome any comments you may have, and look forward to bringing together the "world wide" bass community.
