Greetings from Memphis Tennessee

[Ronnie B]

My name is Ron Berenato, former bassist for the Memphis bands Steeler and Medieval Steel, and Christian rock band Pentecost from Birmingham Alabama. Favorite bands include the Allman Brothers Band, Grand Funk Railroad, Blackberry Smoke, and early Van Halen. My #1 bass at the moment is a '93 Ernie Ball MusicMan Stingray. My backup is a Rogue precision copy modified with Gotoh Tuners and EMG Geezer Butler pickups. I'm a dedicated 4 stringer. My current rig is a Hartke LH500 head and two Peavey Headliner 210 cabinets. I also have a Behringer 210 for small gigs (it has a tweeter which makes it a little sweeter when I'm only using 1 cabinet). 

 

Basses I've owned previously: 1974 Fender precision, 1965 Fender Jazz, Fender Jazz Plus 5, Carl Thompson fretless, Rickenbacher 4001, G&L 1000.

Welcome aboard!

 

I have a soft spot for "Southern Rock", as it gets called, and I do like Blackberry Smoke. They played my home town of  Birmingham,  England last year and I missed them. ☹️

I’ve always wanted to walk down Beale St wearing my pyjamas.
 

Like the Chuck Berry song.

Welcome, you will find us mostly s friendly lot, but there are a few rogues. I have done Bourbon Street N'Orleans, so Beale Street is a calling.
