New Dingwall website...WARNING: severe gas-inducement...

[Crabby]

I'm another lefty (and a fellow Canadian) who be all over the chance to own a lefty Dingwall bass. I understand its a pretty small market but you might be surprised how many of us are out there.

The new website is phenomenal! Great job! I really hope it helps in sales, as the brand truly deserves it!

Anyone got a sound clip of the AB2? I know there's a few youtube clips, but they are mostly speaking (which is fine!).

I have some. I'll dig them out and post them.

Oops, the clips I have are of the AB1. Sorry about that.

Post them nevertheless. I'm sure they would surprise many people!

Sheldon,

The Z3 that Barry is playing for Musik Schmidt sounds fantastic! Do you happen to know which pickup combination/settings he is using on this video?

 

[TapyTap]

They share the same pickups and preamp.

Sheldon,

Is it just my eyes playing tricks on me, or are the pickups parallel with each other on the LSS?

If so, why are the pickups positioned slightly different on the Z2?

Both the Z2 and the LSS seem to have the two pickups in practically the same exact placement apart from this slight variation. You've really got me curious...

I really like the new site. My ABII made it into the gallery as well. Super Cool! Dingwall is King!

 

[bigtexashonk]

Lovin' the Geddy take! Someday I must at least score a Combustion.

These might be the only super high end bass I'd drop the bass for. Now, if they could do it in Candy or Capri Orange... I'd be selling a kidney!

 

[bassbenj]

I've never been more sad to be so broke..

You said it! Just when like Alexander the Great I was crying because there were no more exciting basses left to buy, THIS has to come along!

I would be doomed by GAS by now, but luckily was saved by the fact that there are no Dingwall dealers in Ohio! Whew!

You guys are sick.

Bridge in series, Neck in series, in parallel with each other.

That Z2 photo is a first run edition with Super-Fatties lined up with the harmonics.

The Lee Sklar has the pickups positioned parallel to each other.

All current Z series models have the pickups arranged in parallel formation.

Whoa man, this just isn't your day

Thanks!

I'm hoping Mr. Bowlus might feel inspired to present an Ed Friedland style demo with his new Z3.

Well, now I know that I am not seeing things!

Why the switch to parallel over the harmonic line up?

Whoa man, this just isn't your day

Love that CAT bass, Sheldon, Now if you can outfit it in chrome & black and do it hot rod style, it would be ridiculous.

Thanks!

Actually, one of my current goals is to bring a lot more video content to BGM reviews, so this may be a possibility. After all, it'd be a legitimate follow-up to my review in issue #2.

Of course, we may have a Combustion review for y'all before you know it...

 

[tombowlus]

Whoa man, this just isn't your day

Wow, those are great colors! I really dig the orange.

 

[J Posega]

Whoa man, this just isn't your day

My wife won't be very happy with all of the pestering you've just created!
