For sale only, no trade interest at all please.
If you are reading this you probably already know a little about these wonderful basses. They are hand built in Saskatoon Canada. All of the info can be found here:
http://www.dingwallguitars.com/products/afterburner-series/afterburner-1/
This bass is in very good condition. It’s not new; it has been lovingly played and has the normal wear a main axe should have, but no abuse whatsoever. I can make detailed up close photos on request. This one has the FD3 pickups and BlueQube switch.
Modifications include a B string Hipshot de-tuner I ordered from Dingwall, I will include the original tuner. The maple neck heel has been painted black. Visually, I think this is an improvement over the naked look of the exposed maple block. If you disagree, it is easily reversed, strip it and sand to 4000 grit. Dunlop strap-locks were installed; receiver and strap locks will be included. Original Dingwall info brochure and tool kit are included. Fresh set of Dingwall Voodoo strings recently installed.
The ONLY reason I am selling is I recently acquired a Dingwall Z3 and will be spending the rest of my playing days exploring all the tones this bass generates. I will be more than happy if this AB1 doesn’t sell, I will probably have Sheldon make a fretless neck for it and keep it as a backup. All that being said, I reserve the right to come to my senses and delete this thread!
Ships insured, signature required, UPS Ground in a SKB Freedom case.
According to the 1/2/2008 Dingwall Retail price sheet with options listed the price would be $3,460.00 retail, $2,768.00 street price. I don't know what they sell for new now, but I'm sure it's gone up in 2-1/2 years.
Price is FIRM, and fair in my opinion. I know the economy is down and there are a lot of really good basses out there cheap that are not selling, but I refuse to give this one away, I'd rather keep it than be lowballed.
$1850.00 shipped CONUS, PayPal only.
Thanks for looking!
