A new color is nice to see. My guess would be a light blue. I am more so hoping they release the headless Dingwall before the end of the year. Probably unlikely, but it is coming eventually.

In blues, I’d love to see a turquoise or Dingwall’s version of Lake Placid Blue. Two very different shades, I know, but both very nice.
I’m thinking Robin egg blue witha white pick guard. Who knows, there painting department comes up with great colors/shades.
To tell you the truth, I thought the picture from their Instagram stories was the new colour. With a special grey-ish neck/fingerboard
A Canadian edition.
nice deep metallic crimson with a white pearloid pickguard

I think a nice cranberry red would be cool.
EDIT: if it's shell pink or capri orange, I'll take one.

I would take a deep metallic crimson, but I don’t see them changing from the CF-esque pickguard that is on all of the other NGs (apart from the Darkglass X edition, I don’t think there were any other variances, but I’m not a scholar of NG history).
Spotted one of the NAMM basses that Dingwall is taking to the show on Instagram earlier today and did a double-take thinking it was a photo of my Super J. Very very similar. Mine has a birdseye maple fretboard and a maple neck whereas the NAMM one was a wenge neck and fretboard (I think). The NAMM bass is listed as a cream white whereas mine is a pearl white. The colors appear to be quite similar despite the naming difference. I wonder how different they would be in-person. Regardless of aesthetic differences I'm guessing, based on my experience with my own very similar bass, that anyone trying that one at NAMM will be in for a treat!
Didn't see that one on IG earlier (damn algorithm), but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a roasted ash neck. Seems to be a big thing they're debuting this year. I'd love to check NAMM out this year, but I've got important travel coming up later this month and don't wanna risk catching Covid and ruining those plans.
Digging into it further: Roasted ash neck and pau ferro board.
I'm with you on "pick a color I hate so I can save my money for now". I don't ever remember the candy tangerine being stated it was limited, but all of a sudden you couldn't get it anymore.
It's ok, I was thinking you should paint a white stripe down the side instead of the guard and it can be the Dreamsicle of Groove.
Pretty sure I already own the Creamsicle of Groove.
I think it is just a really wide angle lens. Couldn't finish that video. It did nothing for me. I have no desire to play like that. I'd rather be able to improvise well and/or quickly figure out what key someone is playing in.
Didnt watch, but I do know that curved multi scale is a thing. I forget what it’s called and the benefits, I think it allows you to have more extreme fan or something.
Ok - maybe it is. I watched again and it looks that way, but that is no Dingwall headstock. It is also a 7 string.

Found this. It's an Inyen Vina? Never heard of it, pretty slick looking
