Dingwall Owners Club

is there a wiring schematic available for the 3x rotary for parallel pickups? I have this one, but it applies to pickups internally wired in series.

No idea..... but at least you tried. Lol.

I fear that Sheldon probably gets about 19459876 of those a day from here, FB and all the other places. I think he's on the road right now too, he's got an auto-reply on his email. He does an excellent job of personally replying as much as he does.

My thoughts too. If I send him a direct email he does really well to respond ASAP. To keep on top of all of our banter on these forums would be a full time job in itself.

That is what shocks me. We aren't always tagging him, but he'll pop in and answer stuff (and everyone is :eek: <---- wow!, not eek!). I think someone is watching the forum and sending him little tidbits. I've never bought a new bass from Dingwall (strings, parts, strap I have), but he always treats me like I just bought a Prima.
 
It was always amazing to call the shop on a random afternoon to ask my super important (not) question, and have Sheldon answer, “Dingwall guitars”. I’d be like, “ Um, hi” and freak out inside. It’s HIM. and you know what, he always answered my question!
Had an issue with my very first Afterburner and he answered when I called...that was fall of 2003.

I think that drive to take time to hear from your customers dovetails nicely with their drive to always improve—and I think it’s a large ingredient in the growth that they’ve seen.
 
"possibly defective"? I'm curious why you think it is defective. Technically, the first series of Super J's had Aguilar preamps...
I'm working with a potential buyer of my bass to see if we can fix this one (which wasn't installed in the bass when I bought or) or to see if we need to buy a new preamp altogether. It's definitely missing a push/pull 'pole'. Here are some closeup photos of what I've got. I confess to being completely ignorant about all this stuff--guess that's why I prefer passive basses, lol!
