Very nice!

Still waiting on mine. I keep wanting to ask for a status update but also don't want to be THAT guy considering there was a disclaimer on the wait time. Oh well.

He's crankin' em out! When I get a chance I'll pop the bottom and see how far the production has gone...

So far, everything is still on track to ship within that specified timeframe. I had some lost time due to the wildfires here in Oregon (supplies shipments couldn't be delivered, hard to get work done with toxic air) but I'm doing my best to make up for it. Thanks again for your patience, everybody.

Everyone who is still waiting - you will be so satisfied when the pedal arrives.

@BurningSkies I saw your new Dingwall and it looks phenomenal! I'm hoping that one day I can afford (and justify!) a Super J.

I'm totally psyched on trying out the Dubterranea. Hopefully this weekend once I have a few moments. :) I can say that the finishing job on mine is on point and well worth the wait. ;)

Thanks on the Super-P, it's sort of like the 'surprise baby' you didn't really expect. But sometimes these things happen! I honestly never thought I'd own or afford a single Dingwall. I remember seeing them in the one of the old magazines (maybe the Bass Player gear guide) and being just blown away...then later reading the 5 string shoot out. I managed my first one because I was living cheaply and didn't have a girlfriend or wife or kids, but an OK (not great job). The second one was a similar setup...but being custom and given a wait period of 3 years, I could do my deposit then slowly save for the rest! Also, back when I ordered the uber-custom Rastaburst, the pricing was different. Production was smaller and demand was lower. That bass while expensive cost me under $4k brand new. When I asked the shop for a replacement value for insurance back in 2017 it was $12,000 - $14,000...that's why I stopped touring with it. It's worth more than my car. Now it's probably even more.

Please don't threaten your physical health or your mental/emotional wellbeing for a bunch of dudes on an internet message board, etc. Your health is important.

Dude, in these times...essential workers are...well...essential. I can't think of anything that has been more helpful in getting me through this pandemic than pedals and gear.

Also, post a pic of that new bass...please don't make me venture onto the Bass section of this site so I can read silly people argue about the invisible tonal difference between 2 species of wood.

Smiles all around.

...apparently I'll have some new custom made titanium saddles for it in the next few weeks coming from the Netherlands.

Beautiful bass ! But back to the pedals . I received a Dubterranea today and I have been pairing it with the Xerograph Deluxe (As advertised) with light compression and an expression pedal with the XD. I’ve been getting some really nasty fizzy warbles that don’t seem to resolve themselves when I “play to the pedal” or even seem to happen consistently? Thoughts suggestions?
