  3. [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Bass Now Sold [/font][/size] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=3]Dingwall SJ5 bass in white,absolutely immaculate condition, with Dingwall Gig Bag and set of Dingwall Strings,this bass is 4 months old, reason for sale new Sadowsky due to arrive, and I need to sell to raise the cash for it. So here are all the details: You would pay around £2600 for an equivalent new model, this bass is for sale at £[u]2000.00[/u] [color=black]The Super J is their interpretation of the Classic J style bass, they deconstructed the original design, kept what worked and improved on everything else. The look and feel lean toward the traditional, but the tone and performance are everything you would expect from a Dingwall. Dingwall downsized the scale 2 inches from their standard scale range for a faster attack and quicker, punchier decay. The results are great clarity on the B and E-strings with a big and warm quality to the D and G-strings.[/color] [color=#000000][color=black]Alder Body with tone chambers,Tortoise Shell Pick Guard,Matching Headstock,Rose Wood fretboard, Super Fatty Pickups,Three piece maple neck satin finish,Chrome custom bridge,Hipshot ultra light tuners,weight 4Kg or 8lb 14 ounces.[/color][/color] [color=#000000][color=#000000][color=black][b][color=black]SUPER-FATTY PICKUPS ON SJ SERIES[/color][/b][/color][/color][/color] [color=#000000][color=#000000][color=black][color=black]The Super-Fatty pickups including the shells are made right in our shop here in Canada. They feature an end to end humcancelling coil array with neodymium magnets and hardened steel poles. The coils are noise-symetric/tone-asymetric, which means they maintain near-perfect noise rejection with increased low-end clarity. They have been designed to combine Super clarity on the B and E strings with increased warmth and Fatness on the D and G-strings.[/color][/color][/color][/color] [color=#000000][color=#000000][color=black][color=black]Their tone has been described as very clear and transparent on the bottom and very smooth and punchy on the top. They they have a natural overdriven quality when pushed hard that is similar to a vintage tube amp. They feature 4-lead wiring which enables the internal coils to be wired in either series for strong mids and high output or parallel for scooped mids and normal output.[/color][/color][/color][/color] [color=#000000][color=black]The Afterburner I and ABZ basses feature passive electronics with powerful tone shaping capability. The controls are a simple, no nonsense master volume, a rotary pickup selector and a master tone. The rotary pickup selector doesn’t load down the pickups like a blend or second volume control. The resulting tone has great dynamic range with lots of punch. The tone gets really growly with the bridge pickup soloed. Switch to both pickups in parallel for a nicely “produced” sounding tone with scooped mids that’s great for sitting back in the mix with lots of detail to the note, or for [/color][/color][/size][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=3][color=black]**[/color][b][color=black]CORE WOOD – ALDER ON SUPER J[/color][/b] [color=black]Alder is the traditional wood for the J style bass. It can’t be beat for a traditional warm tone. Due to the internal tone chambers of in the Super J body we add a bookmatched Alder top. This gives the natural finishes a nicer look too.[/color] [b][color=black]FRETS ON SUPER J[/color][/b] [color=black]We use 18% hard nickel silver fretwire. Lee Sklar turned us onto the benefits of small frets. The advantages are a more woody, less metallic tone, smoother glissandos and a faster feel. Our standard size is “banjo” size. This is the same size as you’d find on most guitars from the 50’s and 60’s. Although its size is smaller than standard bass fretwire, its service life is about the same.[/color] [b][color=black]NECK CONSTRUCTION ON SUPER J,[/color][/b] [color=black]We take neck construction very seriously due to our extensive experience in guitar repairs coupled with our geographic location and corresponding extreme climate. In my years in the guitar repair business I constantly had to deal with humidity related problems made worse by the huge temperature and humidity swings of our local climate. Many of these problems could have been minimised through simple design changes and materials choices.[/color] [b][color=#010101]Morado (More-ah-doh) fingerboard on Super J[/color][/b] [color=#010101]Morado is another name for Pau Ferro. This wood has a nice tight grain structure for a smooth look and feel. Its tone is similar to ebony but slightly darker. It’s colour ranges from golden-brown to orange-brown to milk chocolate with a slight purple hue. It is one of the most stable exotic woods meaning you won’t have to adjust your truss-rod very much with a Morado fretboard.[/color][/size][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=3][color=#000000][color=#000000][color=black] [/color][/color][/color][/size][/font]

[attachment=67453:IMG_0648.JPG]Dingwall Afterburner 2 5 String Bass approximately 4 month old and in prestine condition, quilted Redwood with full extra pack, this bass cost me £2800 and was purchased via Bass Direct, its an amazing instrument and sounds fantastic, it a[attachment=67453:IMG_0648.JPG]lso comes with the Dingwall gig bag and a new set of Dingwall strings. Reason for sale is a change to my setup requiring some extra cash, so I am willing to accept £2000 cash for this guitar,so its a saving of £800 on new, sorry though no part x as I need cash. ABII Five String - £2100 REDWOOD BURL top X pack (£595 option) High gloss finish Walnut chambered body Walnut neck with dual carbon fibre spars - satin finish (£120 option) 2 x FD-3/Mach II 4L pickups Glockenklang 2 band preamp, Volume, Pickup selector (Bridge, both parallel, both series, Neck) Active/Passive switching on volume Black Custom Bridge, Black Hipshot ultra light tuners Weight - 9lb 1oz, 4.1kgs Gig bag and tools The build quality of this bass is very impressive and the finish is faultless. With a combination of the custom Dingwall pickups and the Glockenklang preamp you have lots of control over the unbelievable variety of tones that this bass is capable of. The fan fret neck is a joy to play and totally intuitive and the scale length is 37" on the B string and 34" on the G string but feels comfortable and relatively compact. The strings ring with piano like clarity and command with unprecedented clarity on the low notes and almost perfect balance across the string Regards Geoff
