            early on, i think it was a p bass and laney amps. then it went through a bunch of changes over the years. rickenbacker, john birch, yamaha, bc rich, vigor, lakland... ampeg, hartke and ashdown amps at times. slap an emg pup in a pbass through an ampeg svt and youll be there

              Geezer is the most underrated bass player in rock history.

                  You need to be loud, with a good fuzz pedal, as well as a ParaPedal wah. My favorite Geezer playing was post 1980, with the Dio albums.

                        And pluck those strings really really hard. Geezer used a lot of different basses over the years, from P basses, to Jay Dee, to BC Rich Iron Birds.
