Z3 OVERVIEW
Here is a bass that can literally do it all. We combined the Z1 and Z2 pickup layouts with a simple and intuitive switching system resulting in an astounding range of tones that can cover any musical genre with ease. The streamlined neck and body shape result in ergonomic perfection.

one word hot damn
This is the bass I’ve been waiting for!
My Z3 is all I dreamed it would be. I can’t imagine how, but the neck is thinner and faster than the AB series! Beautiful low action, spot on intonation and a bountiful palette of tones to sculpt with make this the last bass I will ever need! Thanks Sheldon!
Awesome instrument. After methodically finding and eliminating most of the rattles produced by other basses in my music room, I brought this home and have given up. Great action. Very complex sound full of overtones. Very good purchase experience (except for the whole “MOP shell” customs thing).
That purple Z3 with the purple position markers is out of control! Incredible!
And the clip of Lee Sklar playing his is the best he’s ever sounded, IMHO…

The interview is quite hilarious, as well.
Keep up the great work, Sheldon.

I played this bass at a show a few years ago and I still think about it. It was one of those “standouts”. Tone, playability, and a B that was amazing. Congrats, Sheldon, on some innovation that really does make a difference!
Cheers,

Hi Sheldon,
I’m the guy who was at the Guitar show in Montréal last friday afternoon who is looking for a kind of John Entwistle tone. I can say that this Z3 is just great. I will definitly put regularly some money on the side in order to buy this Z3 that just made me want to play bass again. By the way it’s been a pleasure meeting you Sheldon. your stand was one of the coolest
Lord have mercy!!! great work.. whats the price on this one.. i want one….
