Fellow bass slingers, I'm looking to move on my 5 string Dingwall Combustion 5/3. I purchased this back in December 22 from Bass Direct, and while the instrument is simply incredible I find myself picking up my NG3 4 string far more than this. So, I think this needs to go to a better home than I can provide it. I have swapped out the strap buttons for Schaller S-Locks which will come with it. Ideally, I'd prefer collection or delivery as I simply do not trust a courier to handle this with the care it deserves. I'm based in Telford, Shropshire so reasonably located for most of the country if we can agree to meet half way. -
Darn! But at least I know I've not lost the plot completely and can indeed line stuff up! If you do nudge ref the bridges, put a good word in for us south paws In the mean time, I think I might have to bite the bullet and go for the Hipshot saddles from FretNation and hope customs aren't feeling nosey. I really don't fancy putting any extra holes in the body. Aha, thank you! It's a stunning finish, especially so considering lefty instruments usually come in black, and a slightly darker black.

Hey Folks, Hope everyone is well! I've recently obtained a couple of Dingwall Combustions, a very nice whalepool burst 5 string, and a 2020 NG3 4 string in the lovely Ducati white. The basses sound and play incredible, minus one small, and bloody flaw. The bridge saddles... Damn those suckers are sharp if you catch an edge. Think Tune-o-matic unrounded saddle sharp. A couple of emails back and forth with Mark @ Bass Direct and he pointed me in the direction of the Babicz FCH Solo Rail(s), as they're supposedly a drop in replacement. Having opened up the packaging and attempting to line the holes up, this doesn't seem to be the case. So, my question is this, do any of you lovely low-end rumblers use these saddles and if so, please tell me I don't have to add a few more hole to these instruments?

Hi Folks, Looking to move this on, purchased as a starter bass for a project that I'm no longer involved with. It's in great condition, having only been used at a handful of practices. It's currently strung up with some DR Neon's 40-105's. As it's gloss black, it is a magnet for finger prints! Given the relatively low value of the item, shipping this would cost a fortune by comparison. Happy to meet somewhere for additional fuel costs, but collection would be very much preferred! Thanks folks, Ben -
My main worry atm is whether it'll fit in the boot! 😂 Torn between this and the 210. I shall ponder and find my measuring tape! -
I am so very, very tempted by this.

Howdy all! I'm up (or down) in Shropshire. So, for the geeks among us, The Shire. 😂

Thank you! Pleasure to be here!

Howdy folks, Hope all is well! Quick introduction from just another chap in the Shire. Running recently acquired gear, Spector NS Ethos Interstellar (that's a lot of words for a bass) and a DarkGlass Alpha Omega 500 head.
