The Fame Baphomet 5 III adds a new model to the Baphomet series, which not only boasts the usual high build quality but is also equipped with brand-new electronics: Firstly, the Baphomet III basses, handcrafted in Gdańsk, come with the Delano JC5 HE/M2 pickup set – and, secondly, a Delano Sonar-2 preamp has been fitted, which beautifully shapes the sound and, thanks to its 2-band EQ with bass and treble controls, allows for individual sound adjustments. The Black Limba body and the five-piece mahogany/maple neck also give the Baphomet 5 III a stunning look, whilst the grain patterns of the tonewoods are completely unique to each individual instrument, making every one a genuine collector’s item. Complemented by indestructible hardware, the Baphomet III remains robust and reliable even after the most intensive use, making the instrument ideally suited for any rehearsal room or studio session, as well as for everyday life on tour. What’s more, the Baphomet 5 III comes with further highlights such as Schaller S-Lock strap pins for a rock-solid hold, as well as a gig bag included in the package for safe transport!
Like its predecessor, the Baphomet 5 III features high-quality tonewoods, which not only provide the foundation for a stunning look but, thanks to the matt natural finish, skilfully showcase each instrument’s unique wood grain. The slim Black Limba body is complemented by a five-piece mahogany neck with maple inlays, which ensures robust handling thanks to the six-bolt neck construction. The ‘D’ neck profile, combined with the 24-fret Pau Ferro fingerboard, offers superb playability – the matt neck finish further enhances the instrument’s playing comfort, guaranteeing a smooth feel for even the most demanding bass lines.
At the heart of the new Baphomet 5 III electric basses are two Delano JC5 HE/M2 single-coil pickups, which deliver a magnificent sound with a warm response. The JC5 HE/M2 pickups (‘HE’ = Hum-free Enhanced) are designed, thanks to their split-coil humbucker construction in a classic single-coil format, to produce the lowest possible noise whilst still fully conveying the fundamental character of the Baphomet through a transparent tone. The result: A crystal-clear and precise attack, along with assertive mids, tight, well-defined bass and clearly articulated treble. Combined with the active Delano Sonar-2 preamp, this creates a versatile tonal character that moves effortlessly between vintage timbre and modern directness.
Complemented by reliably robust hardware, the instrument is designed for long-lasting use. Specifically, a single-rail bridge has been fitted to ensure precise intonation and stable string action, whilst the WSC JB15 bass tuners guarantee reliable tuning. What’s more, the Schaller S-Lock strap buttons provide additional security for your strap, keeping it firmly attached to the instrument – so you can tackle wild rehearsal room sessions or high-energy stage performances with confidence, whilst the Baphomet 5 III stays securely in place!
