wintoid Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I don't know about a link, but it's a Dingwall Super P in Blueberry. I got it from Bass Direct, and I reckon it was loaned for a review to this site: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonshinegtrs Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 (edited) This is my most recent blue bass. These old Cort Curbow basses are pretty cool, I got the chance to work for Greg Curbow during the time that these instruments were designed, so I am biased. I bought a blue 4 string in exc. condition, but I'm a pretty big guy and it looked like I was wearing a belt buckle. The 5 string is a bit bigger, but still not a large instrument. It's lightweight and very comfortable to play. There is a 6 string version, but I don't believe that many were produced. I am on the lookout for one. I found this one on Reverb, it is pretty beat up, there was a slight crack on the peghead (at the E tuner) and the preamp didn't operate properly. I made a lowball offer and the seller accepted it. When the bass arrived, the box looked pretty and while taking it out of the box, I was impressed by how well the seller packed the bass. There was no case or bag. As I pulled the bass out of the last layer of packing, I noticed a few blue paint chips on the floor, after inspecting the body. I wasn't difficult to find the damage, the rim/top of the body where the controls are located, was badly damaged to the point of separating the the top from the rim, there were also cracks on the rim and the top in the control area. The only thing i could imagine causing this is dropping the box off a two story building and it landing perfectly on it's side, but who knows. I contacted the seller and fortunately he had purchased insurance on the bass before shipping, after sending him a bunch of detal pics, it ook a couple of weeks but Reverb offered me a partial refund that cut the price I paid to less than half of the original cost. I believe that I originally paid $240, shipped. I was more than happy with what took place. I took the pickup/preamp out, there was nothing wrong with the pickup, but I had an EMG 35P that I really like, it's a narrow split p design but it woiked with this bass. I added on a volume and tone. Eventually I will glue up the body, but as is the bass sounds great. The neck is in excellent condition, the action is low. I have owned a Blue Flower Presicion bass since 2006(?), it's totally stock, strung with old flats that I had taken off a vintage Fender bass. This is not my bass, mine is currently packed away with some other instruments that I'm saving for my kids.

Oh my, I haven't seen the OLP logo for about 16 years, when I sold my sparkly silver Stingray... 😂 And I always appreciate a nice mirror pickguard 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
