Dingwall Owners Club

That seems like a lot of money for an ugly headstock. Plus the fan is pretty mild, and you don't get the long scale.

I'd put $500 towards a Dingwall, but I'm done trying to mod basses into something they aren't ever gong to be. I think Dingwalls have spoiled me.

For the price of that neck I could build another fEarful. That sounds like more fun than putting lipstick on a pig.

Have a second 37" on order. Have too many cabs as it is.

Maybe I need another amp. :cool:

Too many cabs? Think of them as end tables with features. A pair of 15/6/1's, one at each end of the couch, surround sound into a beefy power amp, Aliens on the big screen... you don't need drink coasters with Duratex. Concert videos could have concert sound levels.

For a second I thought I had stumbled on “Using multiple cabs as surround sound for awesome Alien sound effects” thread. :D

Now I have to google “Duratex drink coasters.”

Surround bass?
I had used multiple amp stacks -- but never stereo -- until recently.

I plugged my Peavey Century into one 410 and my Fender Studio into another, then ran my Boss GT6B with a stereo reverb patch -- the sound was like nothing I've ever heard.

The tonal differences between the 2 amps seemed to make the stereo image more 3-dimensional and natural sounding, yet obviously effected.

Nice!!! Looking forward to hearing its tonal versatility. Making me wish I had ordered a SJ5 instead of the P5 I had :)

Also would like to hear your opinion of the sound compared to your SPJ as well as compared to a reg. SJ set up, if you've played them.

Easily the most versatile bass I own; you literally have killer P, J, and Musicman sounds all in one bass, but with even more nuances due to the additional switches.

The Ash/Wenge combo makes for a very clear, modern, harmonically brilliant tone...I'll be in the woodshed the rest of the day ;)

BIG fan of Sheldon's trans-white here. Bob's Super P has been decorating the desktop of my home and work computers ever since he first shared pics of it. :) It's so cool that yours has a tone for ever musical mood you find yourself in. Am I correct in assuming that it is passive? I almost forgot - is one of the pickups a P-tone?

Yessir, entirely passive with a P Tone in the neck. Totally blown away by this instrument :thumbsup:
