Leeland Sklar had a good definition to the Dingwall B- string! He described it having as much definition and clarity as other strings and sounding even with the E-, A-, D-, and G- strings. There's a video of him talking about his backstory with Dingwall Basses and talking about them.
solid review! i love the attention to detail on thing like the rolled edges of the fretboard. that kind of ergonomic feature should be talked about and it's not in most videos
Had mine for a month now and all I can say is WOW, This Bass is definitely the best bass I have ever played (and I have played a lot of different basses over my 45 years of playing ) Quality is outstanding sound is amazing. I highly recommend trying one out. If there is one con you have to be patient to get one as they are a small company at this stage and there is not a lot of these basses in the music stores. I bought mine through Long & McQuade music and I waited almost a year but believe me it was worth the wait.
Robert Day and of which one are you talking about?
You sold it yet
The Combustions are assembled and painted in Canada. Necks and bodies done offshore from Canadian wood so far as I've been told.
Just ordered one.
Hey guys, nice tones, could you share the signal chain please ?
That is an incredible bass. I could definitely do my own CD with one of those.
Can I ask whats the amp? Sound amazing
Nice shirt!
Excellent video!! Bravo! I've seen these bssses before, & Thought they looked really cool and the sound was awesome But the price was out of my range at the time..... Now they're not!! I ordered a Dingwall Combustion 5 string in purple yesterday ! Oui! Oui! 33³
I just ordered the same thing today
That low clarity is great
I love the shirt
I really want to get into these(especially after learning they're Canadian), but I just can't get over the plasticy top end and looks of them. Multiscale strings also aren't too common.
I just got the ng-3, hands down will never waste my time looking at other basses. its so versatile in its tones and it plays like absolute butter and in person the finishing work is top notch.
They aren’t canadian.
@@visiblesailorsstorys8918 They're made in Saskatoon where the company is based, except a couple made in China models.
@@corybolton7462 I've played a few, didn't like any of them. Other than being 13 lbs, my Thumb is better in every way for me.
@@iunnox666 the one in the video is literally Made in China
Ignore the "mAde In ChInA" comments. This thing is a battle axe and the best bass I've ever owned. The only thing is that the onboard eq is gratuitous and I haven't had batteries in it since the ones it came with died. They should offer a strictly passive version.
afterburner
Yeah i have a NG3 and i just run it passive and use a sansamp to shape the tone - sounds awesome. Really chews through batteries hey.
Chinese or not one of the best sounding basses on the planet.
fakin canadienne eh
balls. balls is the words you're looking for
As much as I love encouraging Canadian industry (as a Canadian). No way I’m paying 2k+ when I can get a USA EBMM Stingray or Sterling for about the same price.
Average bstring - versus best bstring.
Why does it matter where its assembled if its still a better instrument?
Humm… the bass seems to have a p bass tone. How do you think it compares to the NG basses?
Thanks
When producing videos, make sure the volume on the instrument is comparable with your voice. To actually hear what you are playing I had to turn up. When you started talking, it about blew my eardrums out. C’mon man.
They are well balanced on my 12" speakers. If you're listening to bass demos on laptop/phone/etc speakers that might have something to do with it considering you're losing a sizable chunk of the bass tone with smaller speakers.
@@hoghat1 i listen with studio reference headphones and i completely agree with speedriff
Made in China? I thought Dingwalls were made in Canada?
Robbie J combustion models are not made in Canada, hence the lower price.
Gazzy Burns lower price my ass!
@@facedowngaming made in china then they are send to Canada for final checking.... only the higest model are made in Canada
If I'm paying over $2 grand for a bass it better be made anywhere but China.
They aren't handmade Canadian instruments, no. But they are made in a Premium factory in china and re-assembled and setup in Canada and okayed before leaving. They are quality instruments - worth every dollar.
you're loss
China has actually gotten much better recently. I got an expensive coffee grinder that was made in China and its very well made. I also noticed this with the electronic accessory brand "UGREEN", their stuff is on par with anything from Apple, at a much lower cost. Also, the fastest production lap time at the Nurburgring was set by a Chinese electric car. It'll tale a while for them to lose the stigma, but China doesn't just manufacture garbage anymore.
😂😂😂😂😊
they play like $4000 bass, i dont care where they were made lol
cant ever imagine paying nearly £2k for a Chinese guitar. Paying for the name.
fakin canadienne mate, don't underestimate the power of design and assembly
Do you think think all the money goes to China just because they did some cnc work? They are professional basses and that's what they are worth.
$2000 FOR A CHINESE BASS???????????????
for a canadian designed model made with canadian materials built in china, assembled and finished in canada. Piss off eh
Did anyone else hear the truss rod rattling around in that neck? Canadian Dingwall basses can’t be broken. They are tanks that I toured with coast to coast many times and maybe had to tune 3 times 😂😂. These combustion bass guitars just seem like a rip off. “Seem like” if they weren’t great so many people wouldn’t be buying them. I just figure for the price you pay for a Chinese bass you’d get better quality. A truss rod that doesn’t rattle, a decent quality string retainer, etc.....
no, didn't hear nothing, my two dingwalls are absolute monsters and can't find a fault in them in I tried. No truss rod issues or anything else to be found. Tight lows, glorious high mids.
If the truss rod rattles it just means that there is no tension on it. That's easily fixed and has nothing to do with quality.
@@PelleKuipers I respect your opinion. With all of my old instruments you’ve owned tho you should remember what Carl has taught us all about truss rods. Sheldon’s custom instruments do not rattle….
@@richardnunez371 As a builder I disagree. I've made plenty of guitar where, if the trussrod is straight it will rattle.
It has nothing to do with quality, it's just that the cavity for the trussrod slightly larger is than the trussrod itself, which is by design (talking about a dual action trussrod). One half turn either way and you're sorted.
Older Fender don't have this as they have a one way trussrod and the channel is arched.
Love this very beautiful but is very strange should a BASS guitar have only 4 thick steel wire strings.
4 and 5 Strings are quite common. I play a 6 String bass, maybe not so common - but they have been around for 30 years!
seriously?
