  1. Damn, missed this. 3.5kg!
  2. What does it do to nitro finishes? Just very paranoid about my pre-CBS Fenders...
  3. Have you popped this on the Dingwall group on FB?
  4. This. There was a decent Yamaha TRB in the classifieds recently. Used Ibanez SoundGears are also good for the money.
  5. My Dingwall Super P5 and Super J5 are two of the finest fivers I’ve ever played. The Super P5 is completely passive with a Tone-Fusion control, the Super J5 has recently been fitted with a Sadowsky preamp but still sounds good passive.
  6. Length might be worth mentioning.
  7. That is stunning. Would love one of those!
  8. I’d love a 32” six string, that would pretty much be my ideal config for one.
  9. If you’re just playing four chords then perhaps, but I find a quick glance now and then is necessary when reading tricky music, or jumping up to do high fills etc.
  10. LumInlay for sure. I have the ones with a black outline around them on my Sadowsky and both my Dingwalls, so even in daylight they are easier to see.
  11. Does the pickguard stick out above the strings?
  12. So you are looking for more expensive six strings?
  13. This is pretty much the six string spec I’ve always been looking for... looking around my music room now for potential trades... Are you looking to trade up or down? And what is the weight?
  14. Hmmm. Curious to try these and compare to my Chromes... also curious how they were cut.
  15. Thank goodness... I’d been thinking of buying it even though I have nothing to put it on!
  16. Generally if you have to ask...
  17. The 1964 Precisions have different logos on the headstock (I know as I have one), so I’m guessing this was a mistake when the neck was refinished. Unfortunately this devalues the bass somewhat and casts a little doubt on the rest of what’s going on...
  18. Out of curiosity, how do you find the Nordstrand compared to the stock pickup?
  19. Oh I’m not suggesting you buy it - just thought you might be amused by it!
  20. If you want a really crazy 14mm spacing bass, you should try my 8-string Conklin in the Classifieds...
  21. I also struggle with the original Thunderbird shape. The D-bird balances very nicely, Sheldon has given strap placement and headstock design a lot of careful thought and experimentation. They sound pretty immense tuned down in the 3-pickup configuration. edit: I just realised you said sitting down. I haven’t tried it seated, admittedly.
  22. D-bird Standard, surely 😉
  23. Oh WOW.
  24. That needs to be in the wanted section. You got me really excited there...
