* Attention Asia Fans! A note from Stu: "I am really excited to be part of Joe's touring band again! I look forward to seeing alot of my fans around the world. Unfortunatley, I had to cancel/re-schedule many commitments that I had:Clinics in Beijing, Hong Kong, Indonesia and Japan. To my fans and friends in Asia I would like to apologize, but I'll be touring Asia with Joe early next year, and we will re-schedule the clinics.
I am also going to miss teaching the the guitar workshop in Toronto on July 21-22nd, but my good friend Billy Sheehan has agreed to take over!
Thanks Billy!

"They Stu Him, Because They Love Him"

Swept away by the innovations of Larry Graham,
Stanley Clarke, and Jaco Pastorius, he begins to
explore the outer limits of bass technique, trying
out combinations of slaps, pops, taps, slides, and
harmonic chords...
Bass Player, 1991

Hello, and welcome to Count Zero - the only web-site on the Internet, dedicated to Mr. Stuart Hamm! This is the only site that is approved by Stu.

Who the heck is Stu Hamm? - He is quite the bass player. If you have listened to the likes of Joe Satriani or Steve Vai, then chances are you've heard him. He's played with many, many people and bands over the years and is well respected. Chances are you may not have heard his "impossible" bass solos or songs, if this the case, check out the listen section for some mind bloggling clips. A Berklee graduate, a former teacher at the Bass Institute of Technology, and just an all around good guy (who happens to be very good at playing bass guitar!)
