Details

Not 100% positive I want to part with this, but it’s a bit redundant in my setup and I’m jonesing for a multiscale J.

Bought this last summer and have largely used it for recording (because 2020). It remains in close to mint condition, apart from some scuffing on the pickguard. I swapped the stock preamp out for a Darkglass Tone Capsule, so this is more or less the same setup and sound as an NG-3 now.

Original specs from the shop I bought it from:

Dingwall Combustion with 3 Pickups
2-piece Swamp Ash body
Quilted Maple top with 2-tone Blackburst finish ($200 option)
5-piece Maple neck with Carbon Fiber reinforcements
Pau Ferro fretboard with 24 frets ($70 option)
Smoked chrome Hipshot/Dingwall hardware (Dunlop straplocks added after receiving)
Switchcraft output jack
(Darkglass Tone Capsule - added after receiving)
Controls: Volume, 4-position pickup selector (3x type), Bass, Mids, Hi-mids
Pickup Selector positions are: Bridge solo, Bridge/Middle, Bridge/Neck, Neck solo
B Standard tuning
Dingwall Gigbag and adjustment tools
Weight: 9 lbs. 4 oz. (9.25 lbs.)

$2150 shipped CONUS. PM with any questions. Likely not looking for trades, unless you’re sitting on a Super J or other multiscale Jazz-style bass.

Love the grain and finish on this bass.
Had a question- Does the Darkglass Tone Module have to be soldered in or does it just plug into the bass using the same connectors as the EMG preamp?

I had my luthier install it, so not really 100% sure, but he said all he had to do was enlarge the holes for the larger pot shafts, so assuming it isn’t too much different.

The tone capsule has pots and a board with simular quick connect jumpers, and screw in connectors for the other wires from your pickups, no soldering required: Darkglass Tone Capsule Bass Preamp System

That's also what's in my new NG-2, but the pots are soldered in mine.
