    Here is my two week old Marcus Millar sire 5 string. Gorgeous simplicity and value for money which does exactly what it says on the tin very well. This has only been played at home as I sadly haven't had the opportunity to gig it yet which is a shame. All the info spec. and details are on the Sire MM site or on thomaan. The reason for sale is a simple economic need due an unforeseen cost arriving with me and with the silly season around the corner I'd be better with the bill paid. I will post it in the same packaging that I received it in, to UK only. If you are local and can pickup we can discuss removing the price of post.

    [quote name='Danny P' timestamp='1446063079' post='2896651'] Haha much appreciated! Definitely niche, but they're one of those basses that, once you decide you want one, you get really, really hung up on! [/quote] Yep. I cherished my ABII. Wish I hadn't sold it on but GAS was working in the mix. Not financially viable to get involved here but that doesn't stop me coveting.

    These are a we bit of a niche market sale, so have a bump. I'd love another one of these but I simply don't need it.

    This is the best value on BC at the minute. I love these yammies and if i hadnt purchased the marcus miller 5 Sire couple weeks ago id be all over this. Actually might buy it anyway if its here much longer. GLWTS

    I love these Dingwall basses. I've owned three and they are awesome. The super J is a beautiful beast. GLWTS

    You are just down the road from me and this is tempting me for a road trip to you.

    Ive just bought a fiver of these and they are incredible for the money. GLWTS

    Ah. Why are there so many basses i covet for sale at the minute. This and the BB2025 - for flip sake.
  10. Black Coffee
    Oh man this is my ultimate bass. I'm about £1300 short though. Perfect colour too. GLWTS

    [quote name='Fisheth' timestamp='1445366050' post='2890978'] I might actually sell one of my VM's to fund these... Any chance you've tried a VM Jazz? Just was hoping someone could compare the two for me! [/quote] Sorry i cant help you here. Never played the VM.

    [quote name='LewisK1975' timestamp='1445268238' post='2890072'] Very nice looking - Of course the most important question on a Five string - What's the B like? [/quote] The B is good. No issues at all, very playable and excellent value for money. Im well pleased.

    Just arrived, nine days after ordering it. Plays really really sweet out of the box, just had to tune it and google the setup of the array of controls at my disposal. Haven't had to touch action or the neck. Can't believe I've just paid around £320 for this total gem. I'm a passive bass player, and as such I'm not well read or rehearsed on active electronics but I have to say the ability to sweep the mids and control the level too is a cool feature when the active is engaged. Can't really say much more than has already been said by others. Another satisfied customer. Sire need to produce a P bass. That's one I would be buying too.

    Gorgeous double bass. My son will be drooling over this. Shame his part time job comes a little short on the funds though. Good luck with the sale.
  15. Black Coffee
    Bargain, awesome pieces of kit.

    I played one of these yesterday morning through a Markbass combo and it was sweet sounding. It's a lovely finish too. I don't need one, but GLWTS

    This is calling me. Have a bump while i ponder.

    Thanks for the input here. I played a gb four string today. £219 for a sunburst finish. Then played a mim p bass. Apart from the thicker neck there was not £300 difference in the sound. Im tempted to dig further. Might even buy one.
  19. Black Coffee
    Love those pickguards. Nice colour combo.
  20. Black Coffee
    Oh man those are gorgeous.
  21. Black Coffee
    Id reccomend Dingwall and fan frets. No problems at all getting used to them. I've owned three of them and they are fantastic, never tried the NG bass though. It's on the horizon , way out in the distance.

    Anybody any thoughts or feelings, experiences ? Good or bad,reliable ?
  23. Black Coffee
    Sold yet ?

    These really are magnificent instruments. I've owned three different dingwalls and loved em all but sold them for similar reasons as yourself - too much worry and respect for it to enjoy playing it wherever I would be going. It took away the enjoyment, hence I now play cheaper and cheerful and love it. It is a niche market waiting for those with enough cash sitting to buy one outright unfortunately - I sold two musicmans and a fender custom shop jazz to go towards my ABII. Keep patience and a buyer will come. GLWTS.
