Details

WOW! I think I have lost my mind...but I reserve the right to gain it back!

Super clean SJ5 natural ash/maple with killer baltic amber picguard!

Bass plays like a dream and the Glock pre is so musical and transparent at the same time. The neck is pure sex-so fast! Action is super low without a buzz to be heard. The level of craftmanship and attention to detail is really off the charts. I would estimate the weight to be ~ 9lbs (feels great and for sure not heavy!) The bass is a newer SJ so it's routed for the P pu also. I really wish I could try that out!!!

Brand new set of TI Jazz flats ($100) is what she is currently sporting, but I will also include a new set of Sadowsky Nickels. I'm only using TI's on all my basses and they work really well on the SJ, but the Sadowskys are something speacial too!

I bought this bass new from Atlanta Bass Gallery about a year and a half ago. It comes with the Dingwall bag, tools, a black pickguard, white pickguard, and I believe I still have the bill of sale.

Any more info can be had here: (there are also pics of the bass on Sheldon's site)

I don't want to waste your time. I just wanted to say that is exactly the wood, pick guard and inlay combination I have been dreaming about if I ever got a SJ5. I even did a Photoshop mock up before I eventually found a picture of the actual item.

Unfortunately, I can't afford another Dingwall at the moment and I have my sight set on a Z3.

Another bump.

How did you get a set of TI Flats that work with that fanned fretboard?

TI's seem to work great w/ the Dingy! They do have a bit of a lower tension as flats go, but I'm really enjoying them at the moment. You can check out the Dingwall forum where they have a bunch of threads on strings that people are using w/ good & not so good results.

Lots of interest on this one-PM's are being responded in the order they come in...

Damn it! I'm heading on the ships tomorrow and this was the exact bass I was going to order when I got back. I think you should hold it for me for 4 months!

I'm serious, hold it for me please!:)

Hey!

I've got a Mike Lull 4 string Jazz that was custom built.

Alder Rosewood Body - Chambered.

Super light.

Bartolini pre amp.

Lindey Fralin Hum-cancelling pickups.

Might make for an interesting trade.

Thoughts?
