    USA or Finland?

    The colour is as much a giveaway as the grain, it is certainly stained. No idea what wood it may be though, but IMO is definitely not walnut.

    [quote name='Me And My Bass' timestamp='1426327350' post='2716908'] Stuff it . . . It's for sale! £1200 cash OR trade for a fine P-bass! [/quote] Still a bargain Any pictures of that original neck?

    I have flex steels 90 gauge on mine at the moment, I love the sound and size of the strings but the tension is too low really for me. Higher tension light strings, anyone?

    [quote name='Black Coffee' timestamp='1426285653' post='2716705'] I've owned three Dingwalls previously and they are the mutts nuts totally. Specially the ABII. I just bass hop regularly and its a lifelong project. Disappointing to hear the nut could be better, I thought it looked - odd, in the pictures. Ah well, there's always the ibanez single cut to try too. [/quote] Just to be clear, my opinion is completely based on the pictures and specs I have seen, I have not seen one or played one in the flesh

    [quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1426283974' post='2716684'] Why, no logic there at all? Most folks at present are selling for cash as there are a lot of bills to pay this time of year. Trade only means you need to find the owner of a good PBass who also wants a stingray, as opposed to the seller of a good PBass. The latter's a far bigger pond. Best bet, sell the bass in original configuration and the neck separately for a total of £1200 and buy one of the '77s on here at present. C [/quote] I was more coming from trade only with that kind of value, as opposed to selling for cash at such a low price. I totally agree that selling the way you suggest would be the best way of stumping up the right amount of cash, reckon he could get a little more than £1200 all in, depending on the condition of that original neck

    I can't stand the nut area. It is a terrible design IMO, not slanting the fretboard with the nut, it just looks unfinished to me. Its also a much smaller fan, with the B only being 35.5 inch compared to the 37 inch of a Dingwall, would it really have the same effect? Get a Dingwall if you want fanned frets, they may not have done it first but they have certainly done it best. The combustion models are ridiculously affordable, more expensive than the Ibanez but the extra would be worth it for me.

    A grand trade value? With the original and Status neck? Seriously?? Has to be worth more than that. At least stick to your trading guns though, don't sell it that cheap for cash whatever you do!
  9. Kev
    Stunning indeed! I can only hope mine turns out that well

    Do ACG still sell their filter preamps modules seperately?

    [quote name='spectoremg' timestamp='1425716077' post='2709934'] £7k!!! That would buy...... [/quote] A tuner on a Fodera? I still can't get over how cool these all wenge Warwick necks look and feel. Loved mine on the 2013 SSI. Could only be bettered if it was one solid block of wenge!

    [quote name='Wooks79' timestamp='1425979849' post='2712880'] Will you be scrapping the Buckeye burl then and going full Claro walnut? [/quote] No no no, still the walnut body with buckeye top
  13. Kev
    [quote name='Cameronj279' timestamp='1425976139' post='2712839'] Not normally fussed by walnut but it is a very pretty (and surprisingly large) cut of it! [/quote] And that is what it looks like dry. Just wait until it is oiled! The figuring is going to be insane
  14. Kev
    So, my big block of claro walnut has arrived from California, and looks like it is big enough for a 1 piece body and a 1 piece neck!

    [quote name='visog' timestamp='1425668914' post='2709642'] You're avoiding the issue [/quote] You're missing the point.

    Providing ticket prices aren't silly, I'll be in Birmingham

    [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1425030654' post='2703066'] Another Dingwall in the house [url="https://flic.kr/p/riTWXJ"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/qnbAcT"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/r2rd8m"][/url] [/quote] Nice upgrade, that is wonderful
  20. Kev
    it can't be a serious offer, no way. Surely? Must be up for sale again soon due to a non-paying bidder...
  21. Kev
    It would help your sale (and save peoples time ) if you gave details of what kind of bass you would like to trade for. Best of luck with your sale, it is a lovely looking instrument.
  22. Kev
    woo I came extremely close to buying this, I'm glad it has found a home! Really interested to hear what it sounds like
  23. Kev
    Bargain of the year! Wow!
