A Bass Legend While guitarists tend to be a dime a dozen, a decent bassist can be a real challenge to find. And few bassists have ever captivated audiences quite like Stuart Hamm, aka Stu. While Stu came from relatively humble beginnings, his life changed forever in college when introduced to Steve Vai, who later led him to other talented guitarists like Joe Satriani. Partnering with some of greatest musicians in recent history, Stu carved a reputation as a skilled session performer and has since gone on to pursue his own successful solo career. Custom EMG X Series Pickups Stu Hamm, Washburn USA Custom Shop, and EMG worked together to develop the EMG X series Stu Hamm pickups found exclusively on this bass guitar. It has an EMG X series pickup based on the EGM Musicman pickup in the neck position and one based on the EMG XJ pickup in the middle position. There's also a piezo pickup in the bridge position, with independent volume control, that can be used to simulate silky smooth upright bass sounds. Such a diverse pickup configuration grants this bass a wealth of tonal possibilities from grinding heavy metal to "unplugged" jazz bass.
