Dingwall Super P5 - £2400. Withdrawn - what was I thinking £1400 Norfolk

[E sharp]

Dingwall Super P5 .

Brand new - literally as it left the factory .

Got this from Bass Direct a few months ago - after a wait of over a year . Been out of it's case around a dozen times at the most .

Probably one the best basses that I've ever played - just makes sense when you play it , and feels so 'right' .

Come to the conclusion (yet again) that I'm not a passive P player , though I bought it to try and convert myself . But even though it's the best P I've ever played , I have to accept that it may not see much use .

Weight on scales is 8.5 lbs - and strapped on feels super light .

Cost me close to 3K . Prices have recently gone up , and can't find the latest new price for one of these , but Bass Direct have the 4 string version now up for 3.5K . The maple FB which mine has , is an extra cost now . So get a brand new bass for a grand less , and no 12-18 month wait time .

I don't do any online banking unfortunately , so cash only - sorry . Though this is the way I've done all my big private buys and sells over the last few years .

Happy to meet up half way - up to 3 to 4 hours .

Not much interested in trades , as I've seen a Modulus wide string 5 , that's more my liking .

Apologies for the pictures on my old phone .

Thanks for looking .

At £1400 I’d have driven down to meet you half way from Scotland. I’ve family in Clenchwarton just outside Kings Lynn so I know the route well 😀

Yeah my mistake- that I couldn’t seem to correct

I used to own 3 of these in various configurations. Now down to 1 but if it weren’t for Covid I’d still own all 3. Frankly the best P basses I’ve ever played. GLWTS sir!

Is this an alder or an ash body?

That is lush - the 70s P version of the Super P5!

It's the perfect P bass!

I’m not gonna lie that’s a killer p bass too but I’m drawn to the natural finish. #favouritechild
