Douglas Allen Woody (October 3, 1955 – August 25, 2000)[1] was an American bass guitarist best known for his eight-year tenure in the Allman Brothers Band and as a co-founder of Gov't Mule.

After having studied at Vanderbilt University's Blair School of Music,[2] Woody joined the Allman Brothers Band along with guitarist Warren Haynes upon the group's reunion in 1989.

Haynes and Woody decided to leave the Allman Brothers Band in 1997 to put a full-time effort into Gov't Mule.

Gov't Mule continued on after Woody's death with Andy Hess assuming bass duties after a three-year period that saw a rotating group of bass players including Mike Gordon, Dave Schools, Oteil Burbridge (Woody's replacement in the Allman Brothers Band), George Porter Jr. and Les Claypool.

Epiphone posthumously released an Allen Woody Limited Edition Bass, a semi-hollow arch-top similar to the Rumble Kat.
