That was my exact reaction when I unboxed it.
The only thing I would change is the chrome pick guard screws for black. :cool: Yeah, @bebass always seems to have some kickin' Bergantino kit around!
Black screws would look nice.
 
Nice! Also like that Bergantino amp - I bought a Forte about 6 months ago and love it.
When spiritbass & I did the guitar show we had a Forte driving the new Genzler BA410-3 and this was the primary choice of the players when checking out the Dingwalls. I was afraid the “sound police” would say something but I recon they liked it.

That damn BA410-3 has stirred up some serious GAS pains for sure! I love my BA12-3 stack, but I sure do love a good 410 and I have to figure that arrayed 410 has to be awesome!
 
Hey guys - thinkin i will be listing my (virtually brand new) Super P 4 string. Its been hardly used at all - i have two other Dingwalls and i bought this on an impulse (who knew?!!)...natural to blue burst, wenge neck... perfection! Anyway, keep your eye out for it in the classifieds within a day or so...if you're in the market. Thx - cheers

I personally use a BA12-3 stack. If I was a bit younger and still did mega-loud it would be a tough choice as to adding another 12 or the 410. As a one-cab solution, the choice would be easy.

Couldn't find the answer to this one by searching (and I really tried!), but I'm hoping to source some replacement knobs for the AB1 I have on order and I was wondering if someone could please tell me what diameter of pot shaft I should be getting, i.e. 6 mm or 1/4". Thanks!

If it is a current model, the rotary pickup selector uses 1/4 in, and the others are 6mm.
 
So...my AB II 6 had some surgery today. The stock Aguilar OBP-3 pre was a little too hot and colored for my liking. So I replaced it with a Glockenklang 3 band. I'm much happier with the tone now. More musical and less colored to my ears....In any case, that means that the three switches on the front of my ABII do nothing now. Those work only with the Aguilar pre. I had to drill another hole for the extra tone pot. The Aguilar had a stacked bass and treble pot and the Glock has 3 tone pots. I much prefer separate tone pots. The Glock has a very nice passive-active feature. When it is switched to passive (by gently pulling the volume knob out), the treble pot becomes the tone pot. Very organic sounding, and it plays better with some of my pedals in passive mode. Did I say I really liked the Glock over the Aguilar? :)

Sounds nice. Can you give us a quick peak here before you send it out to Gen Pop?
