Fame Baphomet 5 III - Crunchy 5-string sound from noble Natural Ash
The Fame Baphomet 5 III Natural Ash adds a new model to the Baphomet series, which not only comes with the usual high build quality, but has also been equipped with brand new electronics: On the one hand, the Baphomet III basses, handmade in Gdansk, come with the Delano JC5 HE/M2 pickup set - on the other, a Delano Sonar-2 preamp has been installed, which contours the sound wonderfully and allows individual adjustments to the sound thanks to its 2-band EQ with controls for bass and treble. The ash body and the five-piece mahogany/maple neck also give the Baphomet 5 III a great look, while the grain of the tonewoods is completely unique to each individual piece, making each instrument a real collector's item. Rounded off by an indestructible Hardware, the Baphomet III remains robust and reliably playable even after the most intensive use, making the instrument ideal for every rehearsal room and studio use as well as for everyday touring. On top of that, the Baphomet 5 III comes with further highlights such as Schaller S-Lock strap pins for a rock-solid hold and a GIgbag included in the scope of delivery for safe transportation!
The Fame Baphomet III is made by hand in Gdansk and impresses with optimum playing characteristics and versatile sounds.
The five-piece neck of the Fame Baphomet III is bolted six times to the curved body and offers robust handling.
First-class tonewoods and high playing comfort
Like its predecessor, the Baphomet 5 III comes with a high tonewood quality, which not only provides the foundation for a great look, but thanks to the matt Natural Ash finish, also skillfully sets off each instrument with its individual wood grain. The slim ash body is complemented by a five-piece mahogany neck with maple separating veneers, which ensures robust handling thanks to the six-piece bolt-on neck construction. The "D" neck profile in combination with the 24-fret Pau Ferro fingerboard enables wonderful handling - the matt neck finish additionally emphasizes the high playability of the instrument, guaranteeing a smooth feel for any bass line, no matter how demanding.
The Delano JC5 HE/M2 pickups and the Sonar-2 preamp with 2-band EQ guarantee a versatile sound spectrum.
Delano JC5 HE/M2 pickups and Sonar-2 preamp
The heart of the new Baphomet 5 III electric basses is made up of two Delano JC5 HE/M2 single coils, which produce a great sound with a warm response. The JC5 HE/M2 pickups ("HE" = Hum-free Enhanced) are designed to sound as low-noise as possible thanks to their split-coil humbucker construction in the classic single-coil format, while still fully conveying the basic character of the Baphomet with a transparent sound. The result: a crystal-clear and precise attack as well as assertive mids, tight, contoured basses and clearly defined highs. In combination with the active Delano Sonar-2 preamp, a versatile sound character is created that moves effortlessly between vintage timbreand modern directness.
The Fame Baphomet 5 III has a five-piece mahogany-maple neck and a body made of intensely grained ash.
Five encapsulated WSC JB15 tuners on the distinctive headstock of the Fame Baphomet III guarantee precise tuning.
Robust Hardware for long-lasting use
Rounded off by reliably robust hardware, the instrument is built to last. In detail, a single rail bridge was installed for clean intonation and a robust string action, while the WSC JB15 bass tuners guarantee reliable tuning. On top of that, the Schaller S-Lock strap buttons additionally secure your strap and keep it bombproof on the instrument - wild rehearsal room sessions or extroverted stage performances can be tackled with confidence while the Baphomet 5 III stays securely on your body!
