Lamb of God Bass Player John Campbell.

John Campbell, born on September 30th, 1972, is the bassist and a founding member of the metal band Lamb of God.

He uses Jackson basses and he plays with a pick exclusively. He also uses a Mesa 400+ all tube bass amp and two Mesa Roadready 8x10 cabinets.

John is known for being able to double the notes the guitarists are playing despite the larger length and width of the bass guitar's fretboard and the fact that his strap is incredibly low and placing strain on his wrists.

Campbell is also one of Lamb of God's two vegetarians, the other being Chris Adler.
