Gorgeous that. 

 

Interestingly when I lived in Japan I was getting a train from Tokyo to Nagoya I was sat with Tim Commerford and the rest of the crew from Prophets of Rage when they were on tour. 

I think I’d have fan boi’d to the max 😂

Another fantastic StingRay Special. A check of the Musicman serial number database shows a birthday in 2018 and confirms a beautiful black ebony fingerboard.

Does it come with the original case and any candy?

 

 

Aha! I just took the listing from Will hahah! 
 

yes - full proper hard case (not the mono hard/soft case) and the usual shenanigans inside!

can grab more pics etc when I’m UK side too if needed 

I bought this from BassBros back in September, and realised I probs have too many basses currently. So gonna thin the herd out. Maybe grab a new Canadian Dingwall in future. 

Brilliant finish and looks immense. Sounds phenomenal too. I tend to stick with my Timmy C bass or Dark Rays nowadays. 
 

I’m currently on holiday in Paris, so can attach a pic with username on Friday when home. So, rocking Will’s pics for the moment! But looks the exact same (I used it maybe one band practice!).

Aberdeen based, can ship at cost etc. 

I bought the NC recently and it had weird problems getting stuff working. Capturing failed, captures not loading, failing to connect often, Controlling everything via phone was slightly awkward too. When it behaved, it sounded okay. But it was so flakey that I returned. Maybe mines was just gammy. 
 

Baffled me since I’ve had a QC for donkeys but the NC just felt awkward

for me. 
 

YMMV obvs.

Aaaargh! I don't need a back up Anagram. I don't need a back up Anagram. I don't need a back up Anagram. I don't need a back up Anagram. I don't need a back up Anagram......or should I ? 🤔🤣

You know I’m a terrible influence dude. 😂😂😂 i’ll throw in biscuits and an in person delivery for you too 😉

Had a rethink on pricing whilst at work. £720!

This is a fantastic price. Great bass too (though I’m obviously biased given the other chameleon Status here is mine 😂).

Sorry to hear about your health issues, hopefully they improve!

Hi folks,

Bought this about a month back after selling my first and wanting to play again. 
 

It’s brilliant, the new Entropia part is awesome, the new distortions (Sansamp etc) were killer. I haven’t tested the new modulation stuff yet, but presuming it will rock.

Selling for one reason, and that’s because I want to experiment with an axe fx, and this will be surplus to requirements. That arrives tomorrow and probs should attempt to offset. No doubt I’ll grab one of these again. 
 

this is mint and still has the screen sticker. Comes with power cable and case as expected. 
 

based in Aberdeen - can ship. I’d like about £800 again (save yourself some cash!), so i’d imagine £825 after PayPal fees.
 

Bump. As said, open to offers or trade. Could consider an NG2 or 3,  4 or 5 strings too potentially depending on colour. 😊

Could potentially be open to Canadian Dingwalls to trade. Afterburner 1 or 2 or Z most likely!

Really nice looking bass I love that colour.

Mine isn’t a CW but it has the same pickup spacing. I think they just sound a little warmer than a S2.

 

I think this might have actually been mine at one point! 

Brilliant bass!

Just having a random moan about living in the sticks, relatively speaking.

 

For excrement and amusement I had a look at bass guitars within a 100km radius of Aberdeen on FB Marketplace.  This yielded a choice of... 20.  And which one would I buy?  I'd rather just keep the one I'm trying to sell right now.  How pathetic is that?

 

Just a random Monday grumble for you.  How abundant (or pathetic) is your local bass marketplace?

I feel your pain. I get the same ones as you 😅 what is it you’re selling?

I just stick with Bassbros, bass direct, richtone and guitar guitar (though their prices have went absolutely stupid).

I just grabbed one of these about 2 weeks back and I’m genuinely amazed at how brilliant it is. 
 

It has rekindled my interest in Dingwall basses (after owning several NGs and an Afterburner).

If this was headless my brain would be frazzled ,and I would be very upset due to lack of funds at this particular time 🥵

It’s a Status and they are fantastic , as is this bass !  Keep this and sell the stingray instead 😁

Oh it’s absolutely glorious! When I opened the case to snap pics i did massively consider just keeping it. 
 

Still have another CW which won’t go anywhere! ☺️ 
 

Hi folks. 
Thinking of selling my CW-2. According to Dawn @ Status - this was initially built/allocated for Chris Wolstenholme himself. Colour is Genesis Aurora - a brilliant purple/blue switch. It’s got red front LEDs too.

Dawn advised that they only made 2 other CW-2s in Genesis aurora finish, both were headless 5 strings with white LEDs. So, this apparently might be the only 4 string in this finish/LED combo to even exist. I can fire over the email from her too that confirms this. 
 

I absolutely love this bass, but I’m preferring my stingrays at the moment. It’s far too good to be left in a case. 

I can’t see any marks on it. The colour shift is amazing. 
 

Based in Aberdeen, Scotland. Happy to consider shipping (I have a few boxes left from recent purchases). Probs UK only I’m afraid. 
 

Given the above info and recent CW-2 sold prices - I’m thinking £3,850.

PS - forgot to stick a post it on the bass. Sorry.

When venues comp drinks and entrees for the band they're off to a good start .

Man, I’d love that. I end up spending so much on soft drinks (I don’t drink pre gig and usually am driving anyway). Free entry for the wife would be lovely too.

After the recent updates, GAS took hold… I’ve an Anagram arriving on Monday.

Hoping to use the scenes plus midi binding to get more options too. 

We played a charity gig last night. Furthest one from home (about 1.5hrs). 40 min set in a town hall. 
 

can’t say it was mobbed but it was pretty fun. 
 

Used dark ray into my QC and the sound guy was chuffed. Random amp onstage for DI (which was set flat). Some weird screaming from my IEMs and my guitarist seemed to lose his guitar in his mix. We haven’t figured why…

Overall, happy! 

That’s made me consider grabbing one again ha. 
 

If they add more scenes with midi, defo worth a look again!

Aaaw, wow! Thank you for those kind words and I'm glad I could be of help 👍 Does that mean you can say "truss rod adjustment" without breaking out in a sweat? 🤣🤣

Defo man. I’ve even taken your advise with the yoga mat!

Meant to post sooner. Mike was awesome and invited my to his house to teach me how to actually setup my basses - including stuff that scared the bejesus.

Super patient and amazing. I’m now rocking what he taught me on my other basses.

Brilliant dude, great coffee and great craic.

How do you know these things???? 😮 No, really....where can I find this info as I only seem to find out after releases / updates and have no idea of whats coming up?

They had mentioned midi was in progress a while back. Then posted this today. I’m making an educated guess 😂😂😂

So I've come to the conclusion that the Anagram is not for me.  It's good, but I'm a little underwhelmed by the range of effects and I foresee issues with its usability in a live situation.

 

Anyone know how to do a factory reset so I can send it back? 

I don’t think there’s a factory reset per se. 
 

there’s a new update due tomorrow which will likely improve MIDI (presuming).

I find the Suite a bit clunky and not that intuitive but have got used to it. I've not tried to create any patches in the Suite....is this a function as Ive not really looked? 🤷‍♂️ All my patches have been created directly on the Anagram as its so easy. I hope you persevere and get used to it as it is a great unit.

The suite is awful IMO. Fine for loading NAM profiles and IRs… but not much else. 
 

Hopefully Darkglass fix it. They’ve been good with updates so far.
