Bass Player for NJ based Medlodic Death Metal band Dead City Crown, Anthony Ponce is also a live sound and recording engineer and likes to play a viking in the summer (not joking). He is a foodie and fancies himself a pretty damn good cook!!

Describe your rig or instrument of choice. Spector Rebop 5 fitted with Nordstrand Dingwall Pick ups. Darkglass Electronics Microtubes 900 and Hartke Hydrive Cabinets. Also an avid user of MXR, EBS, TC and Darkglass pedals and Shure Wireless systems.
How did you discover Nordstrand? I played a Dingwall bass and fell in love with the wide range of tone. As I was a diehard Spector fan at the time I wanted to get the dynamic range of the pickups but with the natural tone and growl of a Spector bass and the Nordstrand pickups absolutely nailed it to a T. I couldn't be happier!
