Sha Mo 3000 (軍鶏参千, Shamo sanzen) is a studio album by Japanese noise musician Merzbow. It was released in October 2004 by the Brazilian label Essence Music in standard and deluxe editions, and is his first release for the label.

The title is a reference to the shamo, a Japanese gamecock and Módulo 1000, a Brazilian psychedelic rock band. The label presented Masami Akita with some South American psychedelic LPs, which inspired the album. These included Não Fale Com Paredes by Módulo 1000, and Paêbirú by Lula Côrtes and Zé Ramalho.

The standard edition comes in a gatefold sleeve. The handmade boxset edition includes the standard edition of the album, a 3" CD-R with bonus tracks, a silkscreened hanging wall scroll, three printed cards, a sticker, and a bookmark.

All music composed by Masami Akita.
