EDIT. Now sold pending completion.

Up for sale is an immaculate Dingwall Super P/J 5 (passive) in a gorgeous Candy Dark Cherry gloss finish (like a wine-coloured version of a Candy Apple Red).

This has a number of optional extras including the Wenge Neck, metallic gloss paint, J pickup and pearloid block inlays. It has the fanned fret system but is 2” shorter than the usual Dingwall scale length. This makes it (in my opinion) a lot more “normal” to play as there’s no extra reach to the lower frets.

Electronics are Dingwall’s own passive pickups and consist of the standard P pickup plus an additional J pickup at the bridge. The pickup control is a four-way switch between neck only, neck and bridge (serial), neck and bridge (parallel) and bridge only. This gives a massive range of tonal options to choose from.

Condition is immaculate. I can’t find a mark anywhere on the bass. It comes with the Dingwall-branded Levy’s gigbag, paperwork and tools - all of which are also in immaculate condition.

I’ve shown the pictures that Bass Direct used when they advertised the bass - these are of the actual bass - but I’ll post some more that I took earlier today as soon as I’ve had chance to shrink them down to an acceptable size.

Given the condition and scarcity of these, I think I’m asking for a fair price but I am open to (sensible) offers. I’d prefer cash but I’ll consider trades especially if you have a nice, light P-bass.

I’m based in Cleethorpes and, given recent experiences with couriers, I won’t ship this so you’re welcome to come and try or I am happy to meet part way so PM me to discuss options. I also come down to London quite regularly so could meet there if that helps.

(This obviously means that I won’t ship overseas. I realise that I’m reducing my potential market but I’ve had too many bad experiences with scammers in the past so, sorry, but it’s UK only and collection or delivery in person)

Thanks for looking - more pictures to follow later.....

As mentioned in my original post, I need to move this soon in order to clear some funds for imminent expenses that are heading my way.

If there's no interest by the end of the month then this will be staying with me and I'll flog a kidney instead (I think we have a marketplace category for it....).

I will reduce the (collected or meet up somewhere within an hour or so of me) price to £2,500 if that helps make anyone's mind up.....

I'll be withdrawing this at the end of the month and so this is the only price drop I'll be making before I take it off the market and sell the wife instead.

 

... any photos of the wife?

This bass is Just Too Gorgeous!!!
Hadn't I already owned a Super J5 (among others) I'd bought it instantly. Just like that. Weren't it for the fact that you are unwilling to ship. And - I've got another thing coming.
So unfortunately minus three for me on this beautiful bass. I mean, a dark cherry caramel on a dark chocolate stick: could it be better? :) 
Good luck with the sell!
