discreet Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 [quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1331242731' post='1570322'] I have small hands so I don't know if I could possibly cope with a partial 37 scale... [/quote] I don't think you'd have a problem. The fanned frets make it much easier to play all round. It's the work of a minute or two at most to get used to them, then you're off.

poptart Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 [quote name='daz' timestamp='1331485344' post='1573526'] Yeah Dingwall fanned fret basses have been on my "to try" list for ages. Well just Dingwall basses of any shape or form really. I dont think I've ever even seen a single one in a shop. Sigh!

Muzz Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Fretmeister, you really need to try a Dingwall, they really are extraordinary basses, and Bass Direct is definitely the best place to do this. If by any chance you don't get on with a Dingwall, Mark has a zillion other top-drawer basses and amps there, too...it's definitely a "I've always wanted to try..." sort of establishment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJE Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I have so much GAS for one of these at the moment, has anyone here bought one yet? I desperately need to go and play one but always feel guilty about wasting Marks time at bass direct if I havent got the money to buy one....dear lord what can I find to sell.

Guest MrsJ Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Iain and I were talking about this yesterday, actually it was more Iain talking me into buying one, I as usual roll the eyes and think "God not another one" then i saw this [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/SPZ5_BLACK.html"]http://www.bassdirec...SPZ5_BLACK.html[/url] He is now a happy man cause he knows he doesnt need to talk me into it.. I WANT one of these in my house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashborygirl Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I've been through the gamut of boutique basses but my Dingwall AB1 is head & shoulders above anything I've ever played. I can't recommend them enough, just wonderful, wonderful instruments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
