Bass - Nu Metal Gear

JamHQ | Table of Contents

This list features bass gear selected for nu metal — a genre known for its heavy grooves, hip-hop influences, downtuned aggression, and genre-bending experimentation. Whether you’re slapping, scratching, or locking into syncopated riffs, this gear is chosen for low-end power, flexibility, and the ability to handle effects-heavy or percussive playing styles.
