I was just listening to some Gentle Giant the other week after not having heard them in a long long time. Cool stuff. Great tone on the SuperJ.

That's the way I heard it too, until the vocals came in.The tone you are getting is wonderful! Mmmm...Gentle Giant.
Somehow, when the phrasing isn't weird, and the vocalists aren't having to breathe through their ears, it spoils the Gentle Giant vibe.
Didn't spoil the sound of that great bass tone, though!
WOW!! Check this out, but don't let Zoomie see this! LOL

That is downright dingwallicious!
And a slightly more bridge biased J as well. The pick guard is not notched.
Oh duh, it's J body! I'm a dumbass!
Pulled the trigger on this over the weekend. Version 1 blonde. decently priced considering shipping from BC, Canada. Also got hooked up at bassstringsonline.com and have a new set of Payson nickels headed my way to try out.
Pic isn't the greatest. Will post a better one once it is in my hands. Still awaiting my Super P/FD3 5er as well

That's the exact bass I want right now! If only I had the $$$...
Anybody able to get on the DW forum? What's up with that? I actually needed it last night during a rewiring project

Yeah, the certificate used to authenticate their domain expired on 2/28. Your browser automatically checks it on your behalf every time you visit the website, and is warning you that it the certificate provided by dingwallguitars.com is expired. This basically means that someone could theoretically divert the traffic onto another website and pretend that they're the real dingwallguitars.com and steal your password. It is a security risk to use the website until they get a new certificate of authenticity, but you can still use it.
Just back from a bass GTG in Toronto. My ABZ generated a lot of interest. I think Sheldon may see a couple more orders out of TO in the coming months...
Interestingly, the head-up balance point and recessed rear straplock intrigued a couple of people.

I came across a Super P 4 today at my local store today. Being curious I picked it up to see what fanned frets feel like. I was blown away! It felt so natural. The bass was light, the neck felt awesome, the action was low and had no buzzing and the tone was great. Are all Dingwall's built this way? . I'd love to try a Super J as I'm after a J bass right now. I see the p and j both have a medium thin C neck. Is it exactly the same on both basses? I'd love to get a J if it has the same neck as the P I tried today.
