[quote name='Kev' timestamp='1495580688' post='3305113'] bass share, but who would get custody if we fell out?? [/quote] Oh the usual, a bitterly fought divorce settlement, probably cost twice as much in lawyers fees sorting out visiting rights

[quote name='Kev' timestamp='1495227336' post='3302385'] I still wantttt this. Need the Thumb sold before I can consider it further! How does the maple compare to wenge, the obvious? I.e. Brighter, snappier [/quote] Kev, think you're based in the Leamington area like me, maybe we could go halves? 😀

Very nice - do you have any specs (nut width, neck thickness, fingerboard radius, string spacing spacing etc) - I've played a Mayones Patriot 5 which was just lovely - was wondering if this would have the same kind of neck profile

[quote name='Dudly01' timestamp='1490284879' post='3263952'] Just making sure: previous costumer backed off? [/quote] In case you were asking as you're interested, it's still here. If just a casual enquiry, no worries.

Still not sure if I want to sell it bump..

No solid offers so far... It's still waiting for its forever home...

Bumpety bump

what's the problem? ask and you shall receive.... pending payment

Withdrawn - just can't part with the beauty at the moment [attachment=241208:2017-03-19 12.04.21.jpg][attachment=241209:2017-03-19 11.59.19.jpg] Full album here: [url="https://www.dropbox.com/sc/cliuxgvld0i7489/AAC_Bqz9VfVYjWLvkXVwJpbMa"]https://www.dropbox....VYjWLvkXVwJpbMa[/url] It may be time to let go of my beloved Dingwall. I still love the tone, I still love the look, I still love the way it plays and money permitting I'd hang onto it, but my ageing tendons and stubby fingers are starting to feel the strain of a 37" low B and 18.5mm string spacing, so I'm looking for something probably shorter scale and skinnier spacing. OK to be honest I'm looking for the Roscoe LG 5 that the guy who was in Bass Direct half an hour before me bought (and I briefly, jealously played), but I think he'll probably be hanging onto it for a while. In the meantime looking for either sale to fund similar, or if anyone is looking to move the other way to the dark side of fan frets and a truly thunderous low B (it honestly stomps over anything else I've played, including the Roscoes) a trade with whatever funds are mutually agreeable to match up differences. It has a truly gorgeous maple flame top with a trans-black burst (looks a little purple in the pictures but less so in real life), and alder body, maple neck and wenge fretboard. The Dingwall card says 7lb 14oz, which is stupidly light for a 5, and it is also well balanced. The FD3s are stupidly powerful for passives and a wide variety of tones available - this has the older configuration with switch that does a kind of scooped mid cut. Unfortunately does have one small ding on the bottom horn (see picks) and a tiny scratch on the bottom, but otherwise clean. Comes with a fitted SKB Freedom case I'm still not sure I want to sell it, I may regret this....... £1600 as a starter?

And On Hold pending the usual....

This seems to feel more like a double bass than the NXTs - which have a very low action. It naturally is a bit higher and the neck is a chunkier. Currently I think the middle string clearance at the 12th fret equivalent is about 7 or 8mm (haven't got calipers to properly check) and it'll go quite a bit higher than this. I've only ever played it pizzicato and you can definitely get a slap on it.

Sure you could get a replacement but never got round to it as I mostly leave the on switch on.

Makes a great noise and looks cool, but my fingers are too short and I succumbed to the lure of a Rob Allen. Mostly in good nick but sometime in its life before it came to me it had a ding on the bottom right where some of the finish has come away. Every time I go to get this out of the gig bag it is huge in my imagination, but when I take it out I go "oh, is that it? thought it was much worse". It's only about a square centimetre or so. Otherwise a couple of minor scratches but nothing significant, it has never affected the way it plays or sounds.

It comes with the NS Designs gig bag and the standard tripod stand. In addition I'm throwing in the NS Endpin stand, (around £120 new now), which I think is much more natural in use. Currently has a nearly new set of NS contemporary flatwound light strings on it, there is also a set of still perfectly fine traditionals (I think, it was a while back) in the box that will be winging their way to the new owner. £550 ONO all in Would prefer collection as it's long, heavy and stick-like but can post.

Reduced to £150 including postage... You know you want to..
