Dingwall Owners Club

A local TB’r is going to let me take the mini and switch for a test ride.
Looks really cool. Beat buddy indeed.

Anybody know the Allen wrench size for the Super series truss rod?
Seems I’ve shipped all mine out. I have all the others, but not the ball end for the truss rod.

Playing the Super P today, and really liking all the attitude it can bring. It’s even got me playing with a pick.

Ask me tomorrow about the correct size for the Super, but all the others are 9/64". I'd be surprised if it was different, but someone with one can chime in.

Finally got away from soloing the neck pickup on the NG this morning. This baby sings in parallel.

My cat isn't nearly as musical.

Geez! Make me walk all the way downstairs. The sizes aren't listed on the bag, but it's larger than 1/8" and smaller than 5/32", so, unless it's metric.... Had to walk to the garage for that.

Indeed. I'm actually using it more for regular (gasp!) guitar. I need to putz with the chorus options a little bit more to coax the sound I want out of it. I have a Markbass Chorus that gives me just what I want and I need to compare the settings. If you got any good tips or tricks you've found, please let me know. Just starting to play with this.

Hmm, 8/64" is too small, and 10/64" is too large.
Therefore, it must be 3.571875 mm.

Hoooh boy....just PM me with questions and I'll write you an essay.
There's also a really good thread on here too which is pretty active: Line 6 HX Effects

Short answer is I'm very stoked with mine and it's replaced a bunch of pedals, including my B7K. I kept my other drives (AO/VMT/Fairfield Barbershop) and compressor (Cali76 CB) though.

Thanks! 9/64 rings a bell.

I’m sure they aren’t metric on the Canadian models. Combustion’s and NG’s might be metric.

 

[xnewyorka]

If you're only going for penultimate, who has the ultimate collection?

Glad you caught my mistake - I had flipped the definitions of ultimate and penultimate. I just corrected my post. Good catch! Today is the big day -- Mr. FedEx man will be bringing me a very special SJ5xxx...

After seeing what you like, this is pretty exciting...

Swapped the bridge pieces out on my Combustion today, the black is much nicer.

Definitely! They look great.

Which ones did you get in the end? Asking for a friend...

Hipshot sell them as a special order, took a few weeks to send them out as I assume they don’t get too many requests for them.

Did you ask them for the Dingwall sized Solos?

 

[Waltsdog]

Yeah, Dingwall Solo Bridge. I emailed via the website and they confirmed I could buy some and asked me to call to order them.

 

[Waltsdog]

I think I’m gonna cave and order a set of proper Dingwall knobs for it too, the plastidip is a little ragged on the volume and pickup selector knobs.
Worked for a few month though.

 

[Joeykun]

I caved for the knobs. Think I need to call Hipshot now too after seeing your bass! Beautiful with the White/Black combo.

Yep, this has finalised for me what I was going to do - was going to do the knob switch but wasn't aware the bridge switch was an option too.

Anyone know if the new Dingwall bridge pieces will retro comfortably onto the old mono-bridge Combustions?

I'd think you'd have to at least drill more holes.
