I considered inlays, but nixed them. I've already modded this bass to the point I could likely have picked up another used Combustion lol.....don't care though, I love it!Maybe some black pearloid block inlays too

I got my combustion used and the previous owner had added block inlay stickers. I took them off, but they actually looked pretty convincing.I considered inlays, but nixed them.

why doesn't Sheldon make the Z3 with the blade switch anymore. I thought that was a pretty good idea......
The number of orders was low and the amount of time it takes to mess with them wasn't worth it overall. There are a couple of them on E-Bay...
So Dingwall is not making anymore right?
Isnt the blade version more versatile than the regular Z3? I know tone is subjective but it's got more variations right? Whether the variations are usable for different people is another question but they do have a wide selection of tones right?

I think there was ever only 5-6 made. I loved the idea of it and would have liked to incorporate it on my build in cue but it's just no longer an option and Sheldon has his reasons.

I do recall that now. I'm pondering an AB1 in this color:

I would buy that one if it ever came on the market.
There's a new 4 string Combustion NG2 at the Long & McQuade Calgary South store (58th Ave) in Ducati White that's priced at $1,950 CDN due to a bit of wall wear. I didn't look that closely at it to see where the wall wear was. It's the same one that the LM website currently has showing as in stock at the south store.
It's pretty bad. A large crack in the finish under the bass knob if I recall and a couple of chunks. Like almost quarter sized around the body. I believe she took quite the tumble unfortunately.
Ouch, sounds like they need to drop it more than a hundred bucks then.
Didn't early Combustions come in Candy Tangerine?
Peru will be going to the soccer world cup the first time in 36 years, so I decided to record some traditional rhythms to celebrate
I used the bridge pickup solo for this one
