This version 1 Dingwall Combustion 5 string bass is in very good condition. The bass plays and sounds great and of course has the "Voice of God" B string that Dingwalls are famous for. I haven't seen a ton of these in Transparent White and with the pearl pickguard and maple neck, it looks quite good in my opinion. I'm not certain of the age of this bass as I bought it used but it is the version 1, so the 2-band pre-amp is engaged all the time and can not be played in passive mode like newer versions.
This bass has been played, as all Dingwalls should be, the frets are in good condition but slightly scuffed from the stings on the fanned frets, the wear is similar to other Dingwalls I have owned. There are a few minor paint chips. Two are on the front and five are on the back, nothing huge but they are there (See Pics, one chip on the back has got slightly larger since these pictures were taken). There are a few small whites spots/imperfections in the finish here and there that are about the size of the nicks that I have pictured, they are hardly noticeable but are there if you look.
The controls are Volume, Volume, Bass and Treble. I installed the B-Boost magnet kit that I bought from Dingwall to help give the B sting more power. Also an EMG PA-2 boost preamp was installed by a previous owner (see pics). It was professionally done by the look of things and has a toggle switch that can turn it on or off. Everything is wrapped in foam and neatly tucked away in the control cavity. I just left it on as it definitely gives the bass a boost but it can easily be turned off and run without it.
The bass weighs 8 lbs 12 oz which I think is pretty respectable for a 5 string. Included is an SKB hard shell case in good condition except for the 4 small feet/buttons on the edge that were broken off when I got it. The case still works fine without the little feet things.
Asking $975 (US Dollars)
***Buyer to pay actually shipping*** (Approx $60 [Cdn dollars] to Canada and Approx $75-$90 [US dollars] in the USA depending on were you are. I can get an accurate quote from the Canada Post website once I know your location).
Paypal is fine.
*****No Trade Offers Please*****
Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm only selling as I also have a Canadian built ABI and my kids college fund needs the cash more than I need a backup 5 string right now.
