tenpins Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) [color=#5A5A5A][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=4][b]£1100 collect in person.[/b][/size][/font][/color] [font="Helvetica"]NOW SOLD[/font] [font=Helvetica][size=4]Life changes mean I need to reduce the gear collection. I'm only playing my 4 strings nowadays so it makes sense for this to go.[/size][/font] [font=Helvetica][size=4]It has everything they're well known for -- a great B string, low weight, possibly the best constructed bass I've owned, certainly the best wooden bass. This one was made around 2010 I think. It has a maple board and the body has an open grain satin finish in black, with what looks like a very subtle burst. Passive controls, "FD-3" pickups. The knobs are volume, pickup selector, tone. It's in very good condition. I can't find any dings. The most obvious sign of wear is that the logos on the pickups are partly rubbed off. In a couple of the photos you might be able to see some finger marks that I didn't notice and wipe off to the left of the bridge -- I thought my hands were clean but no![/size][/font] [font=Helvetica][size=4]Comes with the original adjustment wrenches and a spare set of La Bella nickel roundwounds.[/size][/font] [font=Helvetica][size=4]Available to try out with nice amplification in London SE4 on weekends and evenings, could also meet somewhere around Hackney Central on weekdays.[/size][/font] [font=Helvetica][size=4]Price is for collection in person, including a basic gigbag. I'll ship within the UK, in the SKB "Bass Safe" ATA Roto case pictured (I prefer to ship in a hard case and that's what I have right now). I figure that case and a quality insured courier service are worth about £100 together, so that would come to [/size][/font][font=Helvetica]£1200 in total.[/font] [font=Helvetica]February edit: changed the headline price to the collect-in-person amount, added another option for meeting up.[/font] [attachment=200179:DSC_0063.jpg][attachment=200180:DSC_0064.jpg][attachment=200181:DSC_0069.jpg][attachment=200183:DSC_0076.jpg][attachment=200184:DSC_0078.jpg][attachment=200185:DSC_0080.jpg][attachment=200186:DSC_0083.jpg][attachment=200187:DSC_0084.jpg][attachment=200188:DSC_0087.jpg][attachment=200189:DSC_0089.jpg][attachment=200182:DSC_0075.jpg][attachment=200190:20150907_115213.jpg] Edited August 18, 2016 by tenpins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliffclanger Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Hi the Dingwall looks great. Would you be interested in a straight swap with a 10 string polycarbonate Chapman Stick circa 1990's? mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therealting Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I'd be interested in the Bass Safe if it's still available. I am in London too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenpins Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 Yep still for sale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aye_bau Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Hi. Is this still for sale? Including the bass safe? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 How is this still for sale? If its not obvious, this is a Made in Canada Dingwall, not a Combustion, and this kind of money for such a bass is a superb deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenpins Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 Kev: that's what I was wondering! In case anyone is wary of dealing with me for lack of basschat history, I do have a bit of feedback: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/41094-feedback-for-tenpins/ In addition to those transactions I've bought several other things on this forum, and always had a good experience, so I'd prefer to wait and deal one of you lovely people than go to ebay or wherever.

kolossvs Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Hi Tenpins, I shot you a PM a few days ago. I am quite interested, but I am based in Denmark. I was hoping I might convince you to ship it to Copenhagen! :-) Best regards, Eskil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
