Dingwall Owners Club

[Topkat13]

AB Nate...you have advanced to the bonus round! This + $4.00 will get you a Starbucks tall of your choice! Like you The Dingwall tech advised there is a little purple Loc-tite to keep the screws from vibrating loose + he said to adjust the string height I should put adequate downward pressure on the wrench while it moving back and forth carefully. But seriously thanks for your comments! So now If you'll recall the tune "Whistle while you Work"...well...I am replacing these lyrics with "Leave well enough alone" and calling it a day!

Well that doesn't have nearly the same Jingle to it!

All four leads (two for each coil) are accessible. This allows the switch to either put them in series or parallel with each other.

They are, series/parallel aren't dependent upon the magnets going across all the strings...to the same extent that you can do series/parallel with two single coil jazz bass pickups and have it still work.

Do you guys happen to know the default wiring on the models that come with FD3Ns? Just out of curiosity.

Hard to say - they vary. If the green and black leads are connected together, the coils are in series. If not, they are in parallel.

For shade_1313: I have an NG3-6 and a Z3-6. Neither have neck dive. They balance beautifully!You’ll be very happy with the NG. It’s an amazing instrument- the neck is incredible. Fast and comfortable to play.

Thanks, I appreciate it. Back to waiting on May.

Or your bass is going to explode.

Very nice! As an aside how do you like the Strandberg? I have been wanting to get one but can't play one prior to ordering so I've been hesitant.

I’m really digging it! Sounds fantastic. I haven’t had an electric guitar in 8-9 years, but I was confident that Strandberg was what I wanted. Kind of like how Dingwall’s sound right to me, this guitar sounds right to me.

A bit off-topic, but I just got myself two new camera lenses that I’m going to use to record the unboxing + 1st impressions vid of my Super P once it arrives
I’ll do a full video once my new knee allows me to sit down and play comfortably

What system are you using for your videos?
I switched from Nikon to Sony just recently for wildlife photography. Having 2 expensive hobbies was a bad idea

That’s a nice setup, your videos anyways look great so looking forward to more Dingwall content.
My only lens is the 200-600 so that’s pretty useless for taking pictures of my bass unless it’s half a mile away haha.

Rapid healing, brother! We don't see very many NLD (new lenses day) around here.

That is one BIG lens, haha!

Thanks! I'll post some pics once the bass arrives, too

I think I remember reading somewhere a few years ago that the neck is parallel and the bridge is series by default. Could have changed since then.

 

[jaco944]

Which one of you bought that Black Forest Green Combustion that was on Reverb. I had it in my cart....waited just a little to long lol.

Rule number one with Dingwalls... Don't hesitate.
Fairly priced ones are gone in a heartbeat

Boy, isn’t that the truth. There was disparity between my desire and my finances.

Well, i think we can all agree that with a cool Dingwall bass you'll easily make an extra dollar or so per gig. So with the current rate of gigging this bass will pay for itself in a quick... Let me do the math...

Umm, you know...



Never mind.

Good call.

Don't dilly dally or dawdle, there's sharks in the water. If it's a deal, you can easily move it on for the same price. Kind of like renting a Dingwall for as long as you like for the cost of shipping.

Prices have been rising steadily over the last ten years.
