Bobby wrote a column for Bass Player from 2014 to 2016.Bobby was recognized in the May 2010 Bass Player Magazine commemorating on the 50th Anniversary of the Fender Jazz Bass. Bobby Vega is that good. Put-the-bass-away-work-at-the-gas- station good. Kenna Shaw, BadAssBassPlayer.com Aug 2009 Hold on to your hats! Are you listening? Here it goes... Bobby Vega is the worlds most insanely bad-ass bass player. You see what he does and sometimes the notes you hear and the movements he makes don't make sense. Then you ask yourself, "Self? How did he do that?" That's why he's Bobby Vega, and we aren't. Jim Dunlop Picks, USA September 2009
