Is this Trotty's?

Post by bassduke49 »

I'm pretty sure this bass and the photo are Darren Trott's. Can anyone confirm?

Has anyone heard from Trotty lately?

That is indeed Darren's bass. I chatted with Trotty a couple of days ago on FB chat. He has been dealing with a lot. My heart goes out to Australia. They have had a lot of natural disasters all in a row and Darren because of his job, is right in the middle of the aftermath of each one.

Thanks, guys. I hope to hear from him. I'd like to use that shot in the project.

Tony, I did get your message. I would like to see photos of what you have. Thanks!
