Features We Love:

Multi Scale Fretboard

Extended range basses in particular benefit so much from the addition of the fanned fret, multi-scale system, and Dingwall are among the best in the game. The combination of the long scale low strings and shorter highs ensure consistent, comfortable string tension across the neck, and as a result, a solid surety of tone from the bottom to the top.

Electronics

Dingwall's stunning FD-3N pickups are custom designed, with a high output for maximum versatility with the punch for a smooth and aggressive tone when needed. The inclusion of the EMG 3 Band EQ opens these tones up to a world of versatility. In addition to the EQ this preamp also features a pickup selector and active/passive switch so you can really dial in your tone.

Dingwall Customised Hardware

Dingwall took a look at existing hardware on the market and adjusted their own designs to achieve something they truly approved of for this bass. The Open Back Tuners are seriously lightweight while extremely reliable with superbly smooth function for precise tuning. The bridge features an individual mounting for each string to minimise interference from one string to the next, while the highly adjustable saddles ensure maximum precision in action and intonation.
