What's up with that ?????? I didn't think they existed, my NG2 just happened to fit in a Fender hard case that was laying around the local music store !!! I'm not comfortable carrying my baby around in a gig bag !!!

Dingwalls fit in most standard cases, but Sheldon has always more preferred gig bags. For shipping I agree with him, but for carrying around town, I'm always worried I'm going to bonk it too hard. I used a few different style hard cases, but always have to pound out a spot for the strap button. I did not realize these were made. Should we do a bulk order? Hiscox cases are made in the UK.

Because what else are you gonna do, slapping a P-bass?
That vid is making me GAS even harder for my Super P. Still got 6 months to go
I kinda figured that was what you were saying.

Anyone here replace the input jack in their Dingwalls to handle a right angle plug?
I hate using a straight and use angles on my Lulls.
Thanks in advance
It depends on what model you have. The Super Series models handle right angle plugs just fine!
I have used right angles on the Afterburners. You have to turn them slightly, but they still work. With the recessed cup on the Combustion (and I am assuming newer NG2's and NG3's), I just turn the cable around and use the right angle at the amp or pedal and have the straight end at the bass. Not always ideal, but it still gets the job done!

I have a NG2 since I’m wondering if there is an extended barrel or something that can be used, or something along those lines.It depends on what model you have. The Super Series models handle right angle plugs just fine!

In that case, no. I haven't heard of anything and I can't think of a mod that would work with it.
Time to double up on the cables! 
I feel your pain. I favor right angles plugs for both cables and my wireless pack and they just don’t play nice with my NG-2 :-(
That might be my only single complaint about my NG-2. Love it otherwise.

No answers here either. I swear I had a cable that worked on the combustion but I can’t find it
welcome to the club though!!!
WAIT! We have @TonyP- hanging out with us for a bit?! I'm super excited about that! I dig that guy!
As to your question, I wish I had an answer for you but, alas, I'm in the same damn boat. I was checking out options for my wireless pack, and I got excited about a right angle possibility, until I remembered I have an NG-3. Depression.
I'm going to hit up a custom cable maker and see if it's possible to make a modified R/A plug to fit a recessed jack. I'll let you guys know if I hear anything.
Hey, @TonyP- , could you use your connections at Tsunami and see if they can come up with something?
Seems like a curved cable-barrel body would meet a lot of needs, but might be hard to assemble
