Custom "Gehenna" Pickups: Unleash Your Sonic Power

Hagstrom’s exclusive “Gehenna” pickups offer exceptional warmth, clarity, and balance in both active and passive modes. These passive soap-bar humbuckers are ideal for a diverse array of sounds, from powerful riffs to melodic lines.

Creativity in a New Dimension

In addition to the 34” scale length, the CNC-machined brass bridge of the Nekromant bass provides rich, long-lasting sustain and clearly defined tones. This newly designed construction optimizes energy transfer, and response, projecting your sound across all frequencies with impressive presence. Along with its aesthetically pleasing design, the materials used and the individually adjustable saddles ensure optimal intonation and tone transmission.

The name Nekromant, Swedish for "Necromancer," embodies the mystical power and precision of the instrument. Unleash your creative energy and make a powerful statement with a bass that combines exceptional functionality with stylish elegance.
