[pic=Mike on the cover of Bassplayer]123012_bassplayer.jpg[/pic]Currently, Mike Dirnt is featured on the cover of the January 2013 issue of Bassplayer Magazine in an article entitled "21st Century Bassman."
Green Day bassist Mike "Dirnt" Pritchard earned his nickname by treating--or tormenting--his high school peers with bass jams that would make any proper headbanger proud. Nearly 25 years after forming Green Day, Dirnt is still doin' it. We talk tone and technique with the punk-pop powerhouse as the band preps to release the last installment of its trio of new albums, ¡Uno!, ¡Dos!, and ¡Tré!.

You can pick up a copy of the magazine for yourself now on GuitarWorld.com for $5.99.
