Same here, $3700 USD after sales tax but before import fees is too much.
It doesn’t have enough strings for my tastes either. I’m just hoping that pre amp gets sold on its own relatively soon.
Just doing the calculations that would come in at $5200 CAD delivered tax in. I wonder how much they were on Dingwall's preorder as I know everything on Reverb is marked up at least a little if not significantly.
The listing said he "just sold one in 32 seconds" so maybe he's adding an extra big markup to capitalize on perceived demand. The guitar pedal flipper move...
It is a cool bass but I'd rather just get an AB at that price!
they were around 3.5k CAD, don’t remember the exact amount. I expected them to be higher.
I assume the Reverb price for that shop doesn’t include VAT, so they have really jacked up the price there.
Such a small detail but I love how the fretboard overlays the headstock cap. Something I’ve never seen before and as small of a detail as it is, it just makes these even more unique.
this is actually a preorder add too. Not even immediately available.
one thing I just picked up from an IG vid was that the Neve pre is making its DEBUT in the Rio bass.
I’ll assume, hopefully for those that want one, this pre will be available on its own in the future.
All in the DetailZ
Long-time listener, occasional poster...it's just nice to see former regulars pop up every so often.
The price with shipping is unreal. I would rather just get an ABZ for a few hundred more at this point.
I thought the limited run was for that initial finish. I expect that JTs will be available in an ongoing fashion, but maybe not that Rio color scheme. Maybe I expect too much?
Link to vid @ :47 where he talks about the limited run:

Part of the reason I think this is the year for the headless Dingwall, is that I was watching a Jacob Umansky live stream of him playing Intervals songs before their tour. He mentioned he’s getting a new Dingwall at the LA show that he’s excited for. Coincidently he gets this new Dingwall immediately after NAMM. I can’t think of anyone better to promote a headless Dingwall!

Pretty sure Sheldon said in his interview with @IvanBassist earlier this year that the headless is going to be another year or two as he's trying to design the perfect bridge, based largely on the Kubicki bridge. I'm guessing Jacob Umansky's bass is just going to be a different color scheme based on his current Stormtrooper bass.
I have a strong hunch it’s a sig model. Little chance a headless will be arriving any time soon.
