Product Description
Sleep Token have taken the popular metal scene by storm with their captivating blend of heavy guitar and bass tones, sultry vocals, atmospheric synths and pop and RnB-inspired injection of electronic beats. Driving rhythm is at the core of their unique sound, and the nameless bassist who goes by the moniker 'III' is key to creating groove-driven lines and precise syncopation with the djent-inspired riffs and technical drumming.
III's signature five-string Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas is a high quality, tonally versatile modern bass capable of percussive bright attack and rounded P-bass style oomph in equal measure to meet the scope of Sleep Token's diverse sound.
Multi-scale neck and ergonomic design
The 34.4" to 35.5" multi-scale fingerboard retains outstanding string tension across the low register, letting you strike the strings hard while delivering an unwavering straight and true-pitched note. Multi-scale also allows for a relaxed and comfortable fretting hand as it follows your hand's natural movement across the neck.
A caramelised maple neck and fingerboard combo provides a real luxurious playing experience with jumbo frets and Luminlay glow-in-the-dark side dots glow ensuring you're hitting every note, even when you're playing on a dark stage. The compound 12-16-inch fretboard flattens out the frets as you travel up the neck, making the shorter distance between each fret more manageable for distinct lead lines while keeping it familiar fretting low notes.
Diverse Fishman Fluence tone
Fishman Fluence pickups are arguably some of the most versatile every created and it's necessary for III's wide palette of tones. III often contributes far more than just holding down the low end and filling out the sound – they're contributing to melody, groove and distinct textures.
The onboard Fishman 2-band EQ provides surgical control over bass and treble frequencies, while the blend knob allows seamless pickup mixing for unique characteristics ranging from clacky metallic attack to smoother, vintage-tinged tones in the style of a Precision bass. These traits change again when you factor in the three-position voicing switch, flipping your sound from hi-fi active directness to passive dynamism.
Uniquely mysterious style
Just like the enigmatic II, the Charvel San Dimas is an eye-catching, intriguing design blending old school stylistic sensibilities with modern features. Red Fishman pickups are a rare treat as most you'll come across are only available in black or silver, while the custom question mark inlay is unique to this III signature instrument.
The included Charvel Deluxe gig bag will keep your San Dimas bass safe from bumps and scrapes while you're on the go.
