Timeline
Tetsuya (テツヤ)is a Japanese musician, best known as the bandleader and bassist of the rock band L'Arc-en-Ciel.
In 2001, he started a solo career under the name TETSU69 (1969 being his birth year).
From 2005 to 2006 he was a supporting member of Morrie's solo project Creature Creature.
Tetsuya plays with a melodic style.
Many of L'Arc-en-Ciel's songs involve him playing counter melodies with guitarist Ken while still holding a groove with the drums.
Tetsuya's composing can be seen as more "poppy" as compared to Ken's, who has a heavier and sometimes bluesy approach.
He frequently uses slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs in his playing.
He plays with a pick most of the time, but uses finger style occasionally when a particular song requires, such as in "Winter Fall", "Jojoushi" , "XXX" and "Mirai Sekai".
In a few songs he can be heard using the slap style of playing, such as in the L'Arc-en-Ciel songs "The Nepenthes" and "Twinkle, Twinkle".
Tetsuya has also used distortion, such as in "Stay Away" and "Butterfly's Sleep".
Formerly known by the stage name Tetsu, he started using his birth name professionally on December 1, 2009.
He also performs backup vocals in L'Arc-en-Ciel and has composed many of the band's songs, including "Link", "Ready Steady Go", "Finale", "Driver's High", "Stay Away", "Pieces" and "Good Luck My Way".
He was seen using variations of this bass at the band's recent 20th anniversary concerts in aid of the 2011 Japanese earthquake and tsunami tragedy.
Tetsuya has primarily played a 5-string bass since L'Arc-en-Ciel's 15th anniversary, but is known to occasionally use 6-strings.
Such as in "Neo Universe", "Time Goes On" and "Get Out of the Shell," where he plays the lead melody.
In "Perfect Blue," he used a 6-string baritone guitar (an electric guitar between the range of a bass and a standard electric guitar).
Tetsuya also uses a guitar/bass double neck in the song "Trust".
Even though Tetsuya is endorsed by ESP Guitars and has several signature models, he has used his Zon bass for most of his recording work.
Tetsuya is an avid collector of basses and guitars, owning over 120 basses and more than 20 guitars.
Tetsuya now also endorses Lakland basses, and his signature model is the US Series 55-69 Tetsuya.
