Dingwall ABZ

Since the 1990s Dingwall guitars have been at the forefront of custom bass design and are the leading users of "fan fret" technology, now considered to be the one of the best ways of getting an improved low B sound from a bass guitar and has been adopted many a growing number of professional bass players including Lee Sklar who is using his Dingwall on the current Toto tour and Dave Swift who plays with the Jooles Holland band. By having a shorter length of scale for the higher strings and a longer scale for the lower strings you get a more even string tension and thus a tighter and balanced overall sound.

This new range of basses offers an amazing opportunity to own a great value Canadian hand built Dingwall bass guitar, and are ideal for players looking to "drop tune" as the longer scale length on the lower strings make dropping down 2 tones or more easy and yield a focussed tone like no other bass. All Dingwall basses are crafted from properly seasoned, instrument grade woods, custom made pickups and bridges and high grade components.
