  1. I don't think it's just high... It seems to be running WAY off the side of the neck... Look at the 2nd to last picture. You shouldn't be able to see the string from the back!
  2. The lines are kind of blurred now since the ABZ now is similar to what AB1 USED to be. Body wood, finishes and fancy top options seem to be the biggest difference between those 2. AB2 is different neck and body woods, semi hollow. The Combustion came before the NG2, and are what the NG2 is based on. Pickup locations, preamps and colours are the differences there. Never played any Dingwalls other than the 2 AB1s I owned. Both brilliant basses. Don't think you can really go wrong with any of them. I'd love another some day...
  3. Where does one hear hints like these being dropped @dannybuoy?
  4. Yes... With AIC and a Spector... This very week in fact!
  5. Roger Sadowsky advises customers that if they don't want a fancy top or a chambered body then they should buy a Metro. Man has faith in his product!
  6. This is making me very nervous about the Dingwall I shipped to Germany via UPS earlier this week... Fingers and toes crossed...
  7. I used to hate P basses too... The sound mostly... Then I had a proper light bulb moment when I played a really good one in Rudy's on honeymoon in New York 9 years ago. It's been all about the P-bass ever since. I currently have 1 US P bass (post-honeymoon wedding present!), but plans are afoot for more...
  8. Hmm... These look suspiciously similar in layout to the Focusrite Scarlett stuff. Coincidence?
  9. Both entire wastes of money and trees. This place is far superior...
  10. I compared an ATK300 alongside 2 brand new MM 4 strings a few years back. No comparison to me. I'd already owned 4 MM basses (Stingray 4 & 5, Bongo 4 & 5) by that point. A £300 Ibanez wasted the lot of them...
  11. If you have £230 to spend buy an Ibanez ATK used. Better than the real thing in my opinion... and I've owned both...
  12. I've probably just missed it, but what are the pickups? Thunderbucker? Lull?
  13. That's as fake as a really fake thing... Even ignoring the cheap bridge, tuners and pickup, the body is wrong, the headstock is wrong, the "made in..." decal is wrong. So much wrong...

    Cheap combos

    Sounds like a job for the Line 6 Studio 110...
  15. Now that is VERY interesting... Did you enquire about different pickup routings available?
  16. Very interesting feature set, and perhaps a hint of things to come on other DG pedals.
  17. I've played good and bad p basses at all price points. The only new US precision I've played in the last 5 years that I've liked was the relatively recent American Original 50s precision, and I really, REALLY liked it. The MIM 50s in the classifieds has tempted me more than once, but the neck won't suit everybody. My favourite p bass I've owned was an early 80's Squier SQ series that I sold in a fit of madness...
  18. Not a huge fan of Darkglass' other stuff, but 5 minutes with the amp and I had to have one. The tone control on the drive section is the secret weapon.
  19. If the CTM100 is like the CTM30/LB30 then it's NOTHING like the ABM. Not better or worse, just different, and the LB30 and ABM (and Orange Terror 500) are my fav amps I've ever tried...
