Isn't it funny how some people go for the sixers thinking they are guitars... Great basses BTW!

haha! Thanks! I have searched and searched for a great 6 string bass, but am realizing that my 4s will probably remain my main dudes. I am shipping the TRB6P to the Netherlands tomorrow. I'm sure they will like it :) The BB425X is the biggest surprise to me. I love that bass, except for a bit of neck dive. I mostly use it on the praise and worship team, and found that the B was more solid if I ran the strings through the bridge, instead of the body. (Surprised me!). You don't need to spend tons of $$ for great basses. :)

Happy thanksgiving!

These are my two Dingwall Combustions, which I love dearly. I call them Ying and Yang, due to the opposite colour schemes :)

Hey Nolly, very interesting to see you have another Combustion. Nice colours! Cool to see you hanging out here also.

Any comments on maple vs rosewood fingerboard, knowing that you chose maple for both?

I take it the black one is from the Nolly-cam video? That video introduced me to the world of Dingwall basses. I drove pretty far to check out a few, and the fanned frets were just as I had read - not a problem getting used to them. I'm looking forward to sitting down with a Dingwell again when I get the chance.

Have you made any special mods to your Combustions? Where and how did you acquire them?

Cheers,

I was skeptical about what the outcome will be, but I think it is a nice color, the medium gray and blue. actual on the can says that it is gray, but as you can see so it is more close to blue.
if i do not know as I am working as janitor in one of the schools in Nuuk. so I have free access to the woodwork room (except by appointment)
and we've had plenty spray cans should be thrown out, and I asked if I can get them
I planing to get babicz bridge and new pickups. I doubt about with the Pu´s I want
I have eyes on DP123, DP149, Fender Super 55 Split Coil Pickups Jazz or any other set of Seymour Duncan's selection or EMG's selection. but I doubt about in which I want

Go w/the pearl. And if you want passive pu's- Seymour Duncan, and if active - EMG X-series. Keep on rocking in Nuuk dudelove!:bassist::bassist::bassist:
