SOLD - Dingwall Combustion
£650

Recommended Posts

This Dingwall Combustion belonged to my son who died earlier this year and I am selling it on behalf of his wife. I know nothing about basses generally or this one in particular, except that it has the serial number 00052, so I am unable to answer technical questions about it. Anyone seriously interested is welcome to come and see it at my house in Silverstone. Alternatively I would be willing to bring it to a potential buyer's house if within a reasonable distance. It comes with a Mooradian gig bag.
NB: The third-party selling rule has been waived due to my particular circumstances.

I've very sorry to hear your news. That's not Ben is it, aka colgraff?

I'd just like to add that I owned this bass before Timweather's son and traded it with him for a Super J. As far as I am aware it is pretty much a stock V1 other than the pickups being wired for serial rather than parallel output, and also the pickups have had the B-booster magnets added to help balance string output and this has worked quite well. The neck has a lovely satin finish, and when we traded it was in pretty good condition other than a few dinks.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Can you post a picture about the back of headstock for reading where the bass was made?
Many thanks.

These basses are made in China and checked/set-up at Dingwall in Canada. They are exceptional value for money.

Yes, I know Combustion models are made in China but due to his serial number I thought this bass could be made in Canada...
Impossibile??

For those interested, I can confirm that this instrument belonged to Colgraff/Ben and he died in late April, which is why there have been no postsfrom him since then.

Still for sale? And does it come with a case of any sort?

Original ad says a Mooradian gigbag. If it helps the sale, I am happy to contribute a hardcase in exchange for the Mooradian... but it looks like this may be reserved anyway

It will have been made in China, and set up in Canada :)
