I get that impression too.

Yeah Sheldon is great , very chill very thoughtful about design and taking his time to do things right.

That's great, would like to hear how it sounds though.

Cool that he called out Kubicki as a design inspiration.

There a reason for starting a 2nd thread on the same bass, OP?

Not that I'll complain about more Dingwall content, just seems weird.

I had no idea the bass was named in honor of Frank Gehry.
I thought it was named the Effigy because it's headless, easy to hang and one side is starting to sag a little.

There’s a puddle of drool on the floor from my GASing over this bass.

Supposed to have mine in about a year

It's times like this I wish I had more money...or an endorsement deal

 

[Altitude]

That looks very well thought through. I like it.

I didn’t need to see that right now. Thank you, @Dr. Cheese

Guess I can post it here. I got my order in, and I got confirmation it will be in the first batch to the EU! So only a year or possibly less to wait! Much better than the 3 years for my Z

Keeping it simple (not that I have much choice):
-3 pickup
-Charcoal Metallic
-DG pre
-everything else standard (FD3’s, Swamp Ash, maple neck, wenge board, etc.)
