@@kandem01 I have a Mexican fender p loaded with geezer butler split coil. Better than any dingwall I've heard

I'd kill to own a dingwall. Fits every aspect of what I'm looking for PERFECTLY. Amazing company without a doubt

Great. Now I have BAS again! The ABZ sounds right and these pickups do sound like what I would want to hear. The B string is as close to perfect as any bass I have ever heard. Beautiful, too.

I've put those same FDV pickups in my NG2, love the sound, I much prefer them over the stock FD3N pickups. And was also much cheaper than buying an ABZ :D

The FDVs are waaaay better, they're the special sauce of the pricier models.

I don't really have gas for other basses these days but my eye has been on Lee Sklar's signature Dingwall for a few years. Unfortunately, it's just completely out of my price range. They are a great company with extremely well made instruments and I've definitely been impressed for a while now.

I’ve had an NG3 6 for about a year and a half, and I love it. I can get every style I want, out of it. Wonderful instrument. But my Z3 6 came to me from my dealer recently. The sound from it is nothing short of astounding. The looks, the craftsmanship, are impeccable, but the tones and playability of it are what makes it 100% worth the money and the year and a half wait to get it, to me.

Could you guys post Josh's Death Magnetic cover with only the bass? I really liked that you guys did that for AJFA.

​@@Metalgophera year ago? Yep. The best bass I've ever played.

Starting with some vintage Alice, Heck yeah.

I’ve toured with Dingwall ABI and ABZ since 2012. I got one of the first combustion basses. I am not a fan of the Chinese models. I imagine I’ve just been spoiled by the Canadian models. I’ve owned almost every model from the 90s models to current and all I can say is Z’s have some of the most comfortable necks ever and the Afterburner series are the best tour Instruments I’ve ever played. They are indestructible tanks. I toured coast to coast over and over and would have to tune 3 times on average every 20 shows and never needed a neck adjustment.

It's hard to go back to the chinese models after trying a Canada-made model, they are so awesome

Every time i say dingwall from now on, i'm throwing a jab 🤣. Cool video brotha! Looking into ordering a custom dingwall for myself 🤔

Alnico pickups is for me the way to go 😍😍

PREACH!!!

I toured with Dingwall afterburners for over 12 years. There is no substitution for Canadian Dingwall bass guitars. They are expensive but worth every penny. Literally coast to coast playing every night I had to tune 3 times. I play hard finger style and slap. No need for neck adjustments no need for anything just beat it up, pack it up and repeat. I’ve owned every exotic bass I can think of and you can get more expensive but you can’t get better. Sheldon is a madman and their quality control is untouchable. Second to Dingwall for a battle/touring bass that is indestructible…. Only one other name comes to mind and that’s LeFay.

Beautiful bass, I would love to have heard some picked bass lines

I played a Dingwall AB1 and AB2 (Afterburners) for years with FD3 pickups (neodymium). No complaints about the AB's but then I got a Z3 with FDV alnico pickups. The Z is another level up in every way. (The slim neck is my favourite part.) It took some time for me to get used to the alnico pickups, though. They seemed weak at first, lacking mid range, but eventually I grew to favour them over the neodymium pickups. The output is lower but the clarity is better, and with three of them, I can get all the classic bass tones I want - P-Bass, J-Bass, Stingray. I'd like to try Super Fatties. They seemed pretty dull in a comparison recording but then I see videos of Lee Sklar and he always sounds good.

Slim neck? How slim is it? Thanks

I'd buy that bass. I'd also buy that shirt. 👀

I do like me an ABZ 6 string on the neck pickup...

Don’t forget John Taylor!

Love the looks of the bass but the tone is too articulate for me. Great video 🤘

I want your shirt!!!

WHERE BUY SHIRT? PLS

And what is the cost of this fine bass?

Watching this and suddenly realize I'm wearing the same shirt as the guest bassist. lol 🤘

The Asian boyz are gonna have a field day with this one

God id hope its better, it costs almost double an NG2 haha

Look for a place that does the rent/buy thing. thats how i got a NG3-6, good luck.

Not quite sure ... I heard few flat notes here!

10 minutes and all you talked about was the pickups. If the bass is “WAY BETTER”, I expect you to talk about the whole thing in detail.

Not for nothing. But why on God's beautiful Earth do you wear shirts that say this?
