With the Dingwall NG2 Nolly Signature 5-String Metallic Black, the Canadian bass manufacturer Adam "Nolly" Getgood, the charismatic bassist and producer of the djent metal pioneers Periphery, tailors a 5-stringBass in trendy multiscale construction, which convinces with clean articulation even at lower tunings. In addition to the alder body, Dingwall relies here on an extremely agile "Medium Thin C" neck made of maple, while FD-3N neodymium pickups and active Darkglass Tone Capsule electronics promise a multifaceted sound spectrum. High-quality Hardware in the form of five Dingwall single bridges and precise Hipshot Ultralite bass tuners completes the NG2 Nolly Signature 5-String SignatureBass by Dingwall.
The NG2 Nolly Signature 5-string electric bass from Dingwall comes with a padded Dingwall gig bag included.
The maple neck of the NG2 Nolly Signature is particularly stable screwed to the alder body.
Multiscale construction for tight sounds
The construction of the Dingwall NG2 Nolly Getgood Signature bass guitar follows the trendy multiscale design with optimally tuned scales for each string. Here, the range is from 34" (864 mm) on the G to 37" (940 mm) on the B, so that every note is reproduced with absolute precision and even Sustain. While the alder body convinces with a perfect balance both on the strap and on the thigh, the bolt-on maple neck offers optimal playing characteristics for virtuoso grooves between the 24 fanned frets of the maple fingerboard thanks to the agile "Medium Thin C" profile.
If desired, Dingwall's five-stringer can also be set to passive mode.
Neodymium pickups and Darkglass electronics.
The electrical sound conversion of the NG2 Nolly Signature 5-String Bass is done by two Dingwall FD-3N pickups, which, thanks to the powerful neodymium magnets, come up with an aggressive, yet smooth tone. The rotary switch calls up the pickups individually as well as in serial or parallel combination so that the five-stringer comes up with four characterful basic sounds. For precise adjustment of the sound, the Dingwall NG2 is equipped with the Darkglass Tone Capsule electronics, which is an active 3-band tone control with controls for bass, high and low mids.
Compound radius and fanned frets create a special playing experience.
