Species 3

The pre-production prototype that preceded the G1 and G2, and the first Maverick guitar to feature a single-cutaway body design. Shared the same string-through bridge, pickups, and electronics as the Species 1 and 2. Featured 24 frets and a 3+3 headstock. Available in black only, with a retail price of £449. "How cool is this? The new Species 3 is a real departure for Maverick – it's their first single cutaway. The guitar packs a two-piece basswood body, one-piece maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and a pair of fat humbuckers. It will be available in black only. The Species 3 will retail at £449. We'll be taking a closer look at the Species range in a forthcoming issue of TG." [Source: Total Guitar magazine — issue and date TBC]
