Mike Dirnt is best known as the bass player in the band Green Day. He's lived a tough life and it's good to see him doing well in one of the largest bands around. A less know fact is that Green Day's Mike Dirnt is also the bassist in another band called The Frustrators. Mike has some pretty cool bass gear.
Let's look at what gear and equipment has been seen in Mike Dirnt's Bass Guitar Rig.

I recently bought the Squier bass that he uses. It is absolutely incredible.
I NEVER set it down, and when I'm not playing it it's securely locked up in a Coffin Case.
I've seen them live before, and I looked through some of my pictures to see if there were any where I could see what amps and such he was using, and this looks very accurate.
Great job.
