Hey everyone,

 

It’s with a heavy heart that I’m letting go of this Dingwall John Taylor Signature 5.

The sound is absolutely monstrous, it cuts through the mix like nothing else, with insane clarity and depth.

 

I’m truly gutted, but I’m selling it for one simple reason : while playing seated is fine, playing standing up unfortunately brings back a serious tendinitis issue in my left shoulder.

It makes it impossible for me to play for long periods or handle back-to-back gigs.

Up until now, I hadn’t noticed the issue because my band was on a short break, and I was mainly playing seated in front of my computer. First rehearsal back tonight, and after an hour, the pain became unbearable… 
With a busy gig schedule ahead, I just can’t take the risk of breaking down mid-tour.

 

I bought this bass brand new, hoping it would be my “go-to” workhorse, but reality had other plans. And of course, it’s now too late to return it to the shop…

 

Here’s my full french review on OnlyBass :
https://onlybass.com/topic/114828-dingwall-john-taylor-signature-5/#comment-2130073


Specifications:
 • Body Shape: Classic Dingwall Combustion NG
 • Strings: 5-string, multiscale 34” to 37”
 • Body Wood: Nyatoh
 • Neck: 5-piece Maple
 • Fretboard: Pau Ferro
 • Bridge: New Minimalist bridge
 • Hardware: Lightweight Dingwall
 • Electronics: 3x Dingwall FD3n pickups
 • Preamp: Rupert Neve (Vol / Quad-Tone / Tone / Bass / High), Active/Passive

 

The preamp is by far this Dingwall’s biggest highlight ! it’s absolutely incredible and very very versatile ! 

I have a feeling Dingwall will be using it on more models in the future.

 

Price & Trades
 • Brand new price: €3,271.74
 • Selling for: €2700, which I think is fair for a bass that’s only one month old.

 

As always, I’m open to trades, Mayones Hadrien Feraud ? but I’m open to suggestions, I always go with my gut feeling !
