Basswood is very light weight and produces a fairly even and full to mid-range response throughout the entire band width. Many guitar enthusiasts agree that it's well matched with humbucking pickups because basswood produces a lot of the same frequencies that pickups easily recreate.

Read More »Basswood is one of the most frequently talked about tonewoods out there and there are many factors that go into the choice of wood for our instruments here at Ernie Ball Music Man. Our design team prefers to use grain heavy wood to accentuate the look and sound of the instruments, but not all tone woods have such a nice aesthetic, basswood being one of them.

Many guitar enthusiasts agree that it’s well matched with humbucking pickups because basswood produces a lot of the same frequencies that pickups easily recreate. Basswood’s pale white to light brown color is mostly uniform throughout the face grain of the wood, and knots and other abnormalities are very uncommon. We choose lightweight cuts of basswood because they tend to sound much better than the heavier ones. This is something that holds true for most tonewoods, but especially basswood. At Ernie Ball Music Man we have sourced and produced dozens of prototypes and the basswood prevailed for specific instruments with its ideal weight and tonal qualities.
