o3 Guitars Caesium Pangea 5-String Bass
Custom, Boutique, Electric Bass Guitar
Hand-Made in Spain by Alejandro Ramirez
Luthier Alejandro Ramirez has been hand-crafting his line of o3 Custom Guitars and Basses since 2005. His forward thinking instruments blend modern aesthetic and ergonomic concepts with the art and tradition of classical Spanish luthiery. Rather than revisiting designs from the past, o3 Guitars push boundaries with their organic curves and clearly defined surfaces. Unique construction details include beautiful exotic tone woods, deeply set neck joints (similar to neck-through), magnetically mounted cavity covers as well as high-end electronics and quality hardware. If you are an enthusiast of custom, boutique electric guitars and basses then Alejandro Ramirez’ o3 Guitars should definitely be on your radar!
This particular instrument is the Caesium Pangea bass with 5-strings. It’s the first of the Caesium series and is completely decked out with nearly all options available for the model including; Multiscale, Master Grade Poplar Burl top and back (cut of the same piece with the same figure), 7-piece neck from Flame Maple, Wenge and Purpleheart, Flamed Maple binding, Black MOP Inlay, Matching Figured headstock, Honduras Mahogany body core, wooden pickups and covers, made to measure Jazzbuckers by Haussel (like fat, humbucking, double Jazz Bass pickups which provide authentic Jazz Bass tone when split), and an Aguilar OBP3 preamp to complete these outstanding electronics.
