Dingwall NG3 5-String Metallic Black Fanned Fret Multi-Scale - 9.14lbs #20928B B-Stock

Dingwall NG3 5-String Metallic Black Gloss Electric Bass w/ Dingwall Bag - B-Stock Part Number: NG3 5 BLK M MH Serial Number: 20928B Weight: 9.14 Pounds What makes this beautiful bass a B-Stock? Just above the lower strap button on the back edge of the body, there was a little repair under the finish at the factory level. It blends in very well with the finish and is very difficult to see unless you really look for it. It looks like a small little patch without the same metallic look as the rest of the finish. Your strap will go over this spot so you will most likely not even see it. It is very difficult to see and only is visible in our photos with a flash applied. Besides this, the bass is perfect and the most recent revision of Dingwall NG3 basses! See last photos for the blemish. The Dingwall NG Adam "Nolly" Getgood Signature basses are based on the Dingwall Combustion. The Dingwall NG3 features an alder body, maple neck, maple fingerboard, a custom Darkglass Tone Capsule pre-amp, sweetspot pickup placement, carbon fiber print pickguard and sharp racing inspired finishes. Dingwall Bag Included Dingwall NG 5-String Specifications: Body Core: Alder Alder is the traditional wood for the electric bass. It can't be beat for a traditional warm tone with strong forward mids, controlled highs and warm but not muddy lows. Finish: The satin and gloss NG finishes are polyester base topped with polyurethane color and top coats. This industry standard finish is long-wearing and beautiful for years of life. Colors: Metallic Black Gloss Pickguard: Carbon fiber print - black Neck Specifications: Dingwall takes neck construction very seriously due to their extensive experience in guitar repairs and understanding of extreme climates. Dingwall experimented with many different lamination techniques and have found a 5-piece maple construction to be among the best. Neck Carve: Medium thin C shape Neck Reinforcement: Carbon fiber reinforcements and 2-way truss rod Headstock: Flat with string retaining bar. Dingwall has combined the minimalist shape of the Afterburner headstock with the lightest import tuners they could find. The result is an excellent balance and solid performance. Fingerboard: Bound Maple Maple has a nice snappy top end that really enhances the attack of the note. Dingwall now finishes the NG maple fingerboards with a satin polyurethane to maintain stability. The entire neck is finished with the same finish. Fingerboard radius: 240mm (9.45") The NG bass features a single radius fingerboard. This makes for a very comfortable playing experience. Fret Material and Size: Dingwall uses 18% hard nickel silver fretwire. Lee Sklar turned Dingwall onto the benefits of small frets. The advantages are a more woody, less metallic tone, smoother glissando and a faster feel. Dingwalls standard size is "banjo" size. This is the same size you would find on most guitars from the 50's and 60's. Although its size is smaller than standard bass fretwire, its service life is about the same. Position Markers and Inlays: 3mm plastic face dots, 2mm plastic side dots Dingwall NG Electronics: Pickups: FD-3N pickups made to Dingwalls specifications Featuring Neodymium magnets which offer high output and a smooth yet aggressive tone. 3-Pickup: Master Volume 3x 4 Position Rotary Pickup Selector 1. Bridge Solo 2. Bridge / Middle in Series (MM Style) 3. Bridge / Neck in Parallel (J Style) 4. Neck Solo 3-Band Darkglass pre-amp w/ Active/Passive toggle switch Knobs: Black Knurled Dome Top Jack: The jack is one of the most critical electronic components of a bass. It is the most likely to suffer abuse so needs to be rugged in order to be reliable. Dingwall wanted the Combustion to be as reliable as it is great sounding and looking so Dingwall installs an amazing socket style jack plate with a Switchcraft brand jack. This is the most reliable system you will find in this price range.
