Grand Wazoo Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 [quote name='charic' timestamp='1318685380' post='1405196'] Ah man, I want details, huge Dingwall fan! I hope this is the TB coming to life at last Although there's a couple of other basses that would look great by them IMHO (Dingwall Jaguar anyone?) [/quote] Well ok I can reveal that in fact I am not getting a new bass, only half of it! lol The problem is that I only like maple necks, ok? Last year I found a Dingwall 2nd hand in mint conditions at a very very interesting price from Bass Direct. The bass in question is a Dingwall Afterburner II which at the time only came with a walnut neck and an Arsen (wenge) fingerboard. Now I love that bass but to look at that fingerboard day in day out together with my other basses is a sight for sore eyes, truly the black sheep in the family until... next thing I know Sheldon is starting to make ABII's with maple necks with the same reinforced carbon spars as the walnuit ones, so I asked him if he could make a nice maple one for me, and he said yes! However this one will go to 11, since it's being built from scracth I will ask for a nice aged flame maple, sliglty dark tinted a bit like a rosted one but not that extreme. It's going to be great! I have already 5 people interested to buy my walnut/arsen one so, as soon as the maple one is built and received I will have no problem in passing it on and making most of the cash back.

charic Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 That's going to look killer! I still need funds for a Dingwall but expect a Shuker will probably come first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
