Dingwall SP-1 5-string £1850 Woking

[lowregisterhead]

PRICE REDUCED TO £1750

 

Up for sale is a brand new Dingwall SP-1, their new P/J passive bass.

 

I got it from Bass Freaks in Belgium a couple of weeks ago, as there's very few, if any, in circulation in the UK as yet. Most dealers over here won't have any stock for some time, so here's a chance to get hold of one now.

 

It's light (4kg), responsive, tonally very versatile, and really easy to play, but I've been using active basses since the 80's, and just I find myself reverting to my old Laklands, which still feel like home.

 

As new, unmarked, plastic still on the pickups, and comes complete with gigbag and tool kit. On Andertons website, the list price will be £2199 when they finally arrive on these shores, so I'm taking a hit on the price, but I suppose that's the cost of early adoption!

 

Specs are here: https://dingwallguitars.com/bass/sp1/

 

Collection preferred from near Woking in Surrey, but I still have the original shipping carton, so can post within the UK at the buyer's cost and risk. Sorry, no trade offers please.

If it not being active is the only deal breaker - have you considered installing a preamp ?

Being passive isn't the only factor - my Laklands are just more up my street, as I mentioned. It's still a lovely bass, but perhaps stands a better chance of being moved on unadulterated! 😉

I misread the title as 'Dingwall SP  15 string'... imagine my disappointment when I realised.

GLWTS!
