Woody's Bassic Tips #16- EDC!!
EDC stands for EveryDay Carry...those things you absolutely carry every time you step out...whether on your person or in a bag...for a live gig, studio session, etc. Sometimes it might change slightly, but it's a good idea to take stock of these things and be prepared and dependable for every musical situation you encounter.

Pocket Knife
