2022 Dingwall Super P - BEAD Bass - Fiesta Red - w/ Case
For your consideration, a fantastic 2022 Dingwall Super P in Fiesta Red!
I can't say enough great things about Dingwall and the basses they are making. These are truly impressive instruments... I keep referring to this one as the Ferrari of P Basses for lack of a better term. The ol' P Bass is a proven workhorse, but the Super P takes that familiar platform and the original Fender goal and takes it to a whole new level of comfort, playability, tonality, and more. It's one of those basses that is hard to put down once you pick it up.
So let's talk about this Super P, serial #6210. This beauty has an August 2022 birthdate and shipped to the original dealer in December of 2022 with the following factory specs:
Super P 4-string ($3,740 base price)
Alder body with Fiesta Red finish.
White/Black/White Pickguard (+85.00)
Dual P Neck Pickup Set - Neodymium
Passive Electronics
1-Piece Maple Neck
Pau Ferro Fretboard (+$185.00)
No fingerboard Inlays
Green Luminlay Side Dots
Chrome Hardware (no longer offered on this model!)
The bass currently sports a Dual P pickup set made with Alnico magnets, but the original Neodymium pickups are also included. A Hipshot droptuner was installed by a Hipshot dealer, and the original Hipshot non-dropping tuner is included. The bass is currently setup and freshly restrung for BEAD tuning, but also shines in standard tuning and everything in between. With the BEAD tuning and the Hipshot droptuner engaged for some extended range, this bass rumbles out an epic low 'A', which is a blast!
The bass is in excellent condition. You'll have to look really closely to see any signs of use. The only blemish we can find is a small ding on the underside of the body (see photo). It is not through the finish, the paint is not cracked or broken, and thankfully it is on the underside where no one will ever see it. The bass has low miles and came to us from the loving home of a good friend of our shop who is a killer player and true bass enthusiast. It has been well-maintained. This bass has no excuses!
Weight: 8lbs 1oz.
The original tool kit and paperwork are included, along with straplock buttons and the original gig bag. That bag is a work of art, seriously. What a thoughtful case!
