  1. Backbeat is the wearable Subwoofer pack that lets you feel your music, matching the pitch and intensity of every note you play. When you play a string on your bass, BackBeat turns the sound you make into a vibration you can feel. Made from durable cast aluminium, BackBeat is strong enough to withstand the rigours of the stage, performance and road. The internal battery will last from 3 to 5 hours of sustained performance. The signal input drives the transducer shaker as well as sends the signal to the Headphone Output. Control knobs allow you to dial in the rumble feel from zero to max and control headphone volume. True bypass output signal to wireless pack, DI box or amplifier. 1/8″ input from Smartphone or MP3 player for practice. Good condition, has been gigged. Unit and adaptor. No case or instructions. Price includes UK delivery
  2. Selling my Dingwall. Great condition, never gigged. Amazing colourshift colour Incudes postage in UK or we can exchange in person (meet half way) Product Description The D-Roc is Dingwall's striking offset instrument. Combining alluring vintage-style curves with their precision-engineered playability, it's a formidable modern instrument with just the right amount of rock 'n' roll mojo. Body & Neck The D-Roc features a sleek but eye-catching body design. Looks aside, it is the instrument's materials that are more key to its focused and detailed sound. The tonewood of choice for the body is Khaya, a Mahogany variety with accentuated midrange and a brighter attack. A 5-piece Maple neck coupled with a heavy-duty truss rod further complements the treble response while ensuring maximum hardiness. Dingwall manufacture has long-been exposed to extreme climate conditions, so they know a thing or two about reinforcing necks! Finally, a Pau Ferro fingerboard adds a little extra warmth and a smooth feel to boot. Multi-Scale Design A noteworthy feature of the D-Roc Custom is its multi-scale design. With a 36.25" scale on the low E string and a 34" scale on the G, the higher string tension on the lower strings gives the bass more punch and clarity where it matters most. Fanned frets allow for super-accurate intonation across the entire fingerboard, with their slanted placement suiting the natural resting position of your hand. It may look odd at first, but you'd be surprised at how easy it is to adapt to this type of neck! Hardware & Electronics The D-Roc Standard is triple-loaded with FD-3N passive pickups. The key to their punchy tone is the use of Neodymium magnets; higher output means a more aggressive sound. This lines up nicely with the tonewood combination, with plenty of midrange bite that produces a distinctly modern tone. A 4-way switch offers a surprisingly broad tonal palette. Dingwall also opted for a traditional jack plate with Switchcraft jack connection to ensure maximum reliability. Finally, slick black hardware is used throughout, with Dingwall Combustion tuners and a specially designed bridge with a custom riser system - increased adjustability and sturdiness all in one.

  4. Hi there I am selling my Lipstick Red 18V Kubicki Factor bass from 1988 (1124 09 88). This bass has been setup with a really low action and plays exquisitely. For a 35-year-old bass, the condition is amazing. The paintwork is near perfect and there are no dings or scratches to speak of. The only two things to point out is a bit of buckle rash on the back of the bridge and a bit of dark red blush on the bottom edge of the body near the input jack. I only just noticed it when taking the photos so it really isn’t obvious at all (I've tried to show the blemish in a couple of photos). Due to the great condition, I am asking £2,950 GBP. These basses are $5,000 new and dont have the Kudos of being made by Phil Kubicki and his small team in Santa Barbara. I am selling because I have a couple of Dingwall basses which I now play and I dont like moving between fanned frets and regular. My top class luthier has ensured the action is nice and low, checked the electronics are serviced and a new jack barrel has been installed. Its 100% gig ready. Its a reluctant sale but I gig infrequently these days and it would be sad for a bass like this to sit in its case year after year. I am located in the UK (North West England - so Preston/Lancaster/Manchester/Liverpool) and ideally I'd prefer collection in person. However, if the buyer wants to go to to the trouble to arrange all the postage so someone just collects from my door - at their cost, I will ensure its packaged securely. Price: Was £2,950 GBP now £2,850 GBP
  5. I have 1 complete set of Dingwall strings (.045, .058, .075, 0.98) and 1 set with the following: 1 x .058 1 x .075 2 x .098 so basically no G string and 2 E strings (dont ask, they came from Dingwall that way by mistake). Im using Stadium Elites on my Dingwall so these are not required. They are brand new. I will post first class (included in the £25) to the UK only. Thanks Damon
  6. I have a brand new set of DR Black Beauties high performance bass strings with gauge 40-100. £35 online but I will send first class for £25 including first class delivery. Let me know if interested. Post to UK only. Thanks
  7. Hi everone I'm taking delivery of a dingwall NG2 4 String next week. I really like light strings on my bass ideally 35-95 or there about. Has anyone any experience of lighter strings on this type of bass I.e. long scale with fanned frets. If so, what variety have you gone for. I spotted the HI-Beams and Elite Stadium strings day are quite long but I'm not sure if long enough. I may just end up going for the dingwall strings but they are heavier gauge than I'd ideally like. Any advice much appreciated. Damon
  8. What do these go for new? Do the fanned frets take a lot of getting used to? I do love the look. Cheers
  9. I have to tell you that I am very tempted indeed. In fact, I'm more thinking about the logistics as I am located up here in Blackpool. I'd drive down if it wasn't for this covid nonsense
  10. This is lovely... and I don't normally like bongos. What is the neck like compared to a stingray? Cheers
  11. Hope you don't regret parting with her. Gorgeous bass
