In a major milestone for the alternative metal powerhouse, Sleep Token’s guitarist IV and bassist III have joined forces with Jackson Guitars and Charvel to launch their debut official signature instruments.
Designed to the exact specifications of both musicians, the collection features the Jackson Pro Plus Series Signature Sleep Token IV Monarkh SC and the Charvel Sleep Token III Signature Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass V. Built to capture the band’s balance of crushing heaviness and atmospheric clarity, the custom builds allow players to tap directly into Sleep Token’s distinctive sonic identity.
IV’s Jackson signature features an extended 30-inch baritone scale length engineered for whole-octave-down tunings, complete with an EverTune 6 bridge and custom Fishman Fluence humbuckers. Meanwhile, III’s five-string Charvel bass introduces a multi-scale design paired with custom red Fishman Fluence soapbar pickups and Luminlay side-dots for dark stage environments.
Highlighting the partnership, Justin Norvell, Chief Product Officer at Fender Guitars, noted:
“Sleep Token’s sonic and visual identity is so distinctive, and the Jackson and Charvel signature models are a huge part of shaping that sound. These instruments let players tap directly into that tone… We’re always looking for artists who redefine what a signature instrument can be, and Sleep Token does exactly that.”
To celebrate the unveiling, IV and III released a special playthrough video performing an instrumental rendition of their track Vore using both signature models. Both instruments are available to order now directly through Jackson and Charvel.
