Sleep Token's New Jackson & Charvel Models

Sleep Token’s bassist III and guitarist IV unveiled signature instruments on 2026-08-26: a Charvel Pro Mod San-Dimas Bass V and a Jackson Pro Plus Series Signature Sleep Token IV Monarkh SC, built to their playing specs.

The two Fender-owned US models are aimed at players chasing the band’s low-end weight and precise low-register stability. The Charvel five-string bass is fitted with custom Fishman pickups to cut through dense mixes; the Jackson guitar ships set up for a whole-octave-down tuning and comes with an EverTune 6 bridge to lock intonation and setup under heavy low tuning and aggressive playing.

Prices are listed as follows: the Charvel Pro Mod San-Dimas Bass V is £1,399, $1,599.99 US and €1,649; the Jackson Pro Plus Series Signature Sleep Token IV Monarkh SC is £1,949, $2,199.99 USD and €2,299.

“Sleep Token’s sonic and visual identity is so distinctive,” Justin Norvell, Chief Product Officer at Fender, said.

To demonstrate what the instruments deliver, Sleep Token released an instrumental version of "Vore," the single from their 2023 album Take Me Back To Eden. The track highlights the extended low register and tight midrange clarity the new instruments are designed to provide, with the bass and guitar parts foregrounded so players can hear the rigs without vocal layers.

Sleep Token formed in 2016 and built an unusual profile: anonymous stage personas led by Vessel, a mix of ambient, pop and heavy metal textures, and a rapid rise to arena sizes after a string of singles in 2023. Their fourth album, Even In Arcadia (May 2025), hit number one in the UK and US and fuelled a run of headline sets at major festivals.

For musicians who want hardware tailored to extreme low tunings and modern live reliability, these models are a direct plug-in option from two major OEMs. The Jackson’s EverTune system targets players worried about detuning under whole-octave-down setups, while the Charvel’s Fishman pickups promise the kind of clarity producers want when low bass frequencies meet dense arrangements.

Both models are now available at the listed prices and will be of particular interest to players copying Sleep Token’s low, polished yet heavy palette.
