Dingwall Owners Club

Saw this this morning. A lot of folks are looking for dingwall play that’s not heavy. Here is a sample.

Thanks for sharing! Thats what I've been looking for.

How long do your batteries last? I have the Glock pre.

In that case I 100% believe that your bass has a parallel middle pickup, but I still suspect the stock configuration on the NG-3 is all series.

I emailed Dingwall customer service and got answer on whether the NG3’s middle pickup is in series or parallel. This was their reply-

Both are correct. The 3x basses used to be wired all in series, but we have since changed to wiring the bridge and neck pickup in series, and the middle pickup in parallel.

No problem.
Another great bassist to check out is Claudio Rocha. He’s not metal and I believe dingwall endorsed.

Loooong time. I don’t recall the last time I changed one. ....

now that I said that though I’m sure...

gee. Thanks.

an easy way to check is pop the back cover and look at the black and green wires.

You know that’s how this works...
Me: I haven’t broken a string in 25 years!
Next gig: SNAP!!!

Excellent - je vais regarder ça

Vous enregistrez où?

Relais Thaï, Plan-Les-Ouates (GE)
Libre à toi de proposer ton groupe si vous êtes dans la région.

In other news I just received something new (6 string ABII discussed a couple pages back) and captured my whole bass collection as it's rare for all of them to be at the same place.

Thanks, that makes sense! And more to consider if I do the 3x upgrade on mine...

La vache .. félicitations, elle est magnifique.
Tu l'as trouvée où celle-là ?

 

[IvanBassist]

My Super P is arriving this week. I’ll probably cry when unboxing it

Anyone a steel string fan? I've got these two sets that I will never, ever use. If someone would like them for the cost of a USPS Priority Bubble Mailer, they're yours!

~45-60 min of practice per day, 1-2 rehearsals per week, 4-6 gigs per month (all pre-pandemic numbers) I'd change them out once a year. They weren't even close to dead, but, it was just a thing I did on schedule to make sure I wouldn't have unexpected issues.

Old voodoos? I'll take 'em.

I like the old GHS Dingwall steels.

Elle était apparemment en stock depuis 2014 chez Public Peace en Allemagne. Au prix d'il y a 7 ans.

Ahh, they’re GHS. That explains how Lee Sklar has always used GHS, even on his Dingwalls. Wonder if GHS would make more strings to fit Dingwalls if there was enough interest...

Yeah, the old contract was GHS. They just feel a little less rough than the D’Addario strings.
