Dingwall Basses

I'd love to try a 4 string Dingwall. I've only owned 5's and learned the hard way that I'm not a 5 string player. Let me know how it is!

I will let you know, JWAR. I expect ~10 month wait. Typically these are 18 months but I was able to "buy" a preorder that a Dingwall dealer put in about 8 months ago. Since Dingwall hasn't started the build, I was able to get the custom stuff that I wanted added/changed.

the Dingwall wave is lurking offshore looming over my little GAS wavelets

This one just got listed on the Reverb:

Looks very nice but that is way overpriced! That dude is tripping.

[Chankgeez]

Is this dude trippin' too?

Needs one more strang

ayup, though a 4 string with the 37" scale on the low string would be cool for BEAD or someawt. Do they make any that way?

@behndy has been noticeably absent in this thread....

[Chankgeez]

Does behndy even know what a bass guitar looks like anymore?

[Dandolin]

Like this?

[Chankgeez]

Where're the strangs?

(Also, we can make fun of behndy as much as we want here because he's not comin' in this thread. )

[Dandolin]

Behndy knows we love him.

OK, this may be a stupid question; but if I can get a used Afterburner 2 5er in excellent/mint condish for a couple hundo more than a new Combustion or NG2(also 5er, natch), I'd be better off grabbing the Afterburner, correct?

Does the answer change if the Combustion is a loverly purplish Indigoburst?

I don't know anything about Dingwall basses. So, based on looks alone, I'd say go with the Combustion.
