Anyone here use the fodera strings on their dingwall? How do they compare to the dingwall brand strings?

It seems they can work on a 36” scale through body set up but will they reach a 37” B?
Jason from FretNation said they should fit no problem. I’ve never used their strings so just curious about them. I may order a set just to see how they are.
Curious on your thoughts if you do. They aren’t designed for MS so I’m not sure how your tension and windings will end up.

Quick question. I want to put a set of the Canadian knobs on my D-Roc Std. I noticed on Fret Nation, they come in both 6mm and 1/4 inch. Any idea which ones would fit a D-Roc Std?
Two 6mm, one 1/4”. 6mm is for the pickup selector, IIRC. It’s been a long time since I ordered knobs for my NG3 and D-Roc.

If 6mm is the pickup selector, wouldn't the volume and tone be 1/4"? So 2 1/4" and 1 6mm?
Sorry, I got twisted up with trying to go back and find the order confirmations from Fretnation, and gave mixed messages.
It’s further complicated by the fact that my D-Roc knob order, I screwed up and only ordered one of each, and got the third knob later. I can definitively say, after looking at other orders, that I ordered four 6mm and one 1/4”, for my NG3. So, 1/4” for the pup selector. Sorry for the confusion.

Anyone just buy DWs for investment purposes? Lol....some of the prices are nuts. Just saw a certain used one on Reverb.. Some of the prices my Gibson axcess models are going for these days are just as crazy...

Thank you so much for the information! Do you happen to know which color represents which wire on the toggle modules?
Sorry I am trying to implement this toggle switch for a pair of Nordstrand Dingwall pickups on a parallel bass...just wanted to double check if the same colored wire means the same thing...
Sorry, beyond my pay grade - not sure if the lead colors are the same between DW and Nordstrand.
This is the series/parallel setup for DW :

Here's a little more info that might help. I just did a crazy upgrade on my Ibanez SRF705 fretless earlier this year and put in a Zen Blade bridge and BigRig neck with parallel/single/series switching. The north coil is red/green and the south coil is black/white. Took me a while to realize that. 
I also did my NG3 in a similar manner, but I think the coil wires are different color codes and you can't run them split-coil (single coil.)
Hope the PDF helps.
