  1. Well that’s my kid’s names sorted. Thank you.
  2. I would suggest that you should check the model with Dingwall. They have a contact page on their site and the responses are excellent. Send them the serial number and they will confirm. That price is especially cheap for an AB1, particularly one only two years old. ABZ and AB1 can look very similar. If it said ABZ on the box and Bass Direct said it is an ABZ, it probably is, however. I have an AB1 but had to get that confirmed by Dingwall as it is passive and looked just like an ABZ, despite the AB1 price.
  3. Bass Direct also sell Payson strings for the Dingwall. They are a little different in gauge but should work. I did speak to both Mark at BD and Sheldon Dingwall at the LBGS at the same time and they both thought some work on the nut may be needed. I passed at that point but Payson are an alternative.
  4. If I was American it would have to be Dunlop Breaking my Heart. (think about it) but as i am not, I would say most versions of Little Wing or Crosstown Traffic.
  5. I remember someone years ago telling me to keep the volume on full for a passive bass but feel free to adjust on an active. Something to do with maintaining tone. As I keep the vol on max irrespective, I do not know if that does or ever did stand.
  6. CR is also a valid code for the same battery.
  7. I tried a PJB Flightcase (I think) and it struggled with the B string on my Roscoe as well as being extremely heavy for the size. Sad as I really liked the idea of them. The tone was great for E to G, but it just could not cope with my B.
  8. Welcome Bill. To my thinking Bill is a Yoda fan and after he had met Yoda, Yoda was heard to say "A nice fellow Bill Yellow is". When in fact , being a toucan, the correct expression is Yellow Bill.
  9. Whilst I also think the advert is extremely lazy, it will also only encourage responses from the type of person who is serious enough to make the effort to look into the offer.
  10. Magnus, I will defo come and say hello. Whilst not yet an owner, I am a great fan of the u-bass (in the right hands), mostly thanks to your C Jam Blues jam with Frank Vignola!
  11. Apologies for the hijack but Magnus playing C Jam blues with Frank Vignola is saved into my favourite videos folder on You Tube. Looking forward to meeting the man! I will have to buy one now.
  12. I have three of which I use two. The Dingwall for the more rocky type sounds and the Roscoe for the more funky type stuff. The p bass is my third and will never be sold but sadly sits in its case for months at a time.
