FS - Dingwall Afterburner 1 - 6 strings - 2 Pickups - *SOLD* £12345 South East London/Lewisham/Greenwich

So I have managed to find a 5 string Dingwall AB1 so this is going for sale only

I've owned this bass for the past 3 or so years, it plays beautifully and has kinda ruined me for other basses tbh, however for the 2nd time in the last 10 years I have to concede that I don't need a 6 string bass, I am prone to noodling, but the genre of music I play does not really need 6 strings on bass, and as much as i would like to, I feel more comfortable on a 5 string.

 

So without further ado, I am putting up for sale my beloved black 6 string Dingwall Afterburner 1.

It has been played and has a few knocks and scratches which i will photograph and and send over on request. It is passive and full stock(as it came)

 

As far as i can conclude, the body is Alder, neck is Maple and fretboard is Wenge, pickups I think are FDV's. The only thing of notice is the fact that the nut was filed for a .152 B string(or whatever other tuning was used) and i have used exclusively .130 Dingwall strings and tbh it has not been an issue at all, string has never slipped or moved or anything like that, however should you feel concerned I am sure you can get an AB nut from Bass Direct. Strings have been used but not excessively, I can include a new set with the trade, Also in regards to tuning, my lowest is G# and the definition and growl i had as well as good tension has always been top notch.

It is also passive and honestly it sounds better in passive than a lot of basses in active.

 

Currently the bass is at The Bass Gallery in Camden however I plan on bringing it home, so if you are more comfortable with acquiring it from there or testing it, please go ahead, as after this weekend it will be located in SE London until sale.

 

Price that i was looking at is £2000 once i get it back, however it is negotiable, so send over any offers you might have, you never know.

 

 

 

PS:I cannot seem to change the value from £12345 on price as this was for trade, but if one of the mods can do that it would be very appreciated.

Lovely instrument!

 

Appreciate it's just for trade but we do need you to include a trade value/guide price for the bass in the thread title or post, assuming it isn't £12,345? 

 

Cheers, and best of luck with the trade!

Hi Kev, 

It is indeed a lovely thing, should i have longer digits or if i were playing something more proggy this would be perfect.

 

Will add a value in the main ad, thanks for the tip.

I had one of these in red. Light as a feather and a very comfy sixer.
