Channel the Massive Tone of Metallica’s Robert Trujillo
As the fourth member of Metallica since 2003, Robert Trujillo puts down massive bass lines with a distinctive combination of sound, dexterity, and attitude. Known for fingerstyle playing, Robert relies on an articulate tone with a tight bottom end, plenty of midrange punch, and highs dripping in harmonic overtones. Partnering with EMG, Robert has put this collection of qualities into his signature EMG J Set. With its broad tonal range, low resistance to inductance ratio, ceramic bar magnets, and custom steel caps, the Robert Trujillo signature set delivers a dynamic playing experience that has captured the attention of bass players at Sweetwater.
