Oh wow i didnt know dingwall leaves a neck pickup route in their basses. Thats actually really sick. Sounds great!!
Yeah, I think so too!!
Its so it doesnt cost anything more or less to make the ng3. I added a pickup to make it an NG3 with the D-Roc config. Its dope.
@@davidcoulombe3086 Its more so, that its a mass produced body with one setting for all the basses to cut off more costs.
Yeah, all the bases that are the NG or combustion have all three routes already done so you can get a two pick up Bass for a little bit cheaper and add the third or swap them around like that. That’s why I love Dingwall!! Sheldon put an extreme amount of thought, and innovation into their instruments.
great video!
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it! Love your basses ❤️
I for one believe in the Neck & Bridge pickup supremacy.
Yes! 🔥
P-pickup guy here for balance.
@@mieszkowrobel2274 With Dingwall they're all P-pickups really 😌
Upgraded My NG2 to a NG3 by adding a Neck Pickup. Its so flexible now. Love it.
Thats great! Love how flexible they are :)
I will be honest I see uses for both. So I understand why there is a 3 pickup option so damn smart!!!! Great video
Totally agree!
I really enjoyed that! Great quick tech job, amazing playing.
Glad you liked it!
Wow, sounds much better in the new position, in my Opinion! More articulate and tighter than before!
Oh and it looks better aswell! 😁
Thanks! I think so too!
I like that better, sounds good! Thanks for the vid.
Glad you like it!
I prefer the rear position!
Totally get that! They don’t build it like this for no reason 😊
Comparing the sound between 0:41 to 0:47, the neck position is just so sick! Great video!
Thanks a lot!
Yes …. She’s back ‘ 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
🫶🏻
Your tone is gnarly!
Thanks!
I can’t choose. It sounds great either way…which means that YOU are what makes that bass sound so great.
Thanks! This just made my day :)
I think both positions have their pros and cons!
Perfect Sound!!!
Glad you like it!
Hey I saw how you made to the swap to Dingwall after using the Dingstrand pickups with the Darkglass tone capsule, and I was wondering how close you were getting with the previous setup and why you ended up swapping over
I did a video where I made a pick guard out of aluminum but I kept the pickups where they were (I have the NG2-6) I wanted to stuff something under there to get rid of the hollow tapping sound. now you got me wanting to try spacing my pickups out..... time to get another sheet of aluminum!
my question to you is, how does your bass sound so deliciously crunchy? I have a Bergantino Super Pre, but I don't have a good AMP amp yet. recommendation?
Wow, making your own pickguard sounds great! For an amp I really love what Darkglass offers. Very versatile for every sound in my opinion.
@@paularrr thanks very much! im definitely going to Bass Central to check out a Darkglass
May I know if you recorded the two pickups in parallel or in series?
i like the neck pick moved alot better then the before, just less tinny and more mids it seems to me
Totally agree on the mids!
OH LMAO
I just did this to my white NG2 too
I'm probably gonna just switch between the two depending on which tones I want
(For example, the drop C /AGCF songs on Periphery III were actually recorded in neck/bridge position!)
Periphery's Juggernaut dual album involved middle/bridge though
The presence of the neck route definitely opens up this bass to a lot more potential
It has gotten to a point where I genuinely would take a NG2 over a NG3
Something cool would be to see if Dingwall would sell me a pickup shell so I can use one pickguard for both positions!
That's awesome! Having different options with just one bass is great - hope you'll get what you're looking for! :)
The difference is subtle but it added a spatial wrapping to the tone and a smidge of meat juice.
But what if you do neck and middle only?
HACKS!
I prefer the new position. It's close, and both options sound awesome, but I think the clarity/mids in the neck position are improved.
#HackThePlanet
Thanks! 🙏
nice
Thanks!
WOW, real big difference! If i'd play a dingwall this is what i'd do FIRST!
Didn’t expect that difference either!
I liked the original position more
Are you using your own settings in Parallax? If so, would you mind sharing?
Yes, I use custom settings with the Parallax plugin. Actually I did a whole video about how I get my tone - maybe this will give you the insights into my parallax settings you‘re looking for! you can find it on my channel :)
good video positive comment algorithm take this one to the top very good awesome yes yes yes yes
Yes! Thank you!
I liked the new position better.
should be nice to check how it sounds in upside down position and also with two black or two grey wiring pickups aside
I wonder if you could just get a 3rd pickup and a new selector so you could have both-
I do know that Dingwall offers a kit to add a 3rd PU, though not sure how the selector works with this option. Maybe I‘ll try it someday:)
@paularrr
There is a company out there making a 6-way-selector to your likings.
Too expensive to get in germany, but us and Canada is reasonably priced.
Have a combustion myself and would go following route on a six way:
POS 1: bridge
POS 2: bridge + middle series
POS 3: bridge + neck series
POS 4: bridge + neck Para
POS 5: bridge + middle + neck (droc setup)
POS 6: neck
To me it almost sound like a J-bass when pickups are in neck and bridge positions. Jazz bass with active preamp and dual-coil j-pickups. Kind of... Great video, short yet informative.
I'm a neck pickup guy but I feel there is more Dingwall character with the default setup.
I was almost 100% sure that Submission Audio DjinnBass 2 will pop up :D
It definitely would have been a good option :D
if u got the funds u could just make it an ng3
Yeah that’s true, but I actually prefer this version because I play fingerstyle and I‘m most comfortable with the space between PUs :)
It would have been helpful if you had done a before-and-after demo.
The alternating before and afters start at 00:26 in the video.
okay... so what's the "truth" then?
still……
darkglass tone hahahahah
One can‘t go wrong with those I guess :D
Nice playing but the tone is too clanky to notice a real difference.
I mostly play metal bass, so it makes sense for me to set the sound like this. The device you use to listen also makes a difference. And it also kind of proves my point; why not have the pickup position you likes most, because there is not too much of a difference in how you perceive the tone
i wish i had thousands of dollars to throw at a bass
Why would you not include a clean demonstration.. that bass distortion effect tone sounds like complete trash. I don't understand why people like it. I wont listen to a band if the bassist uses this tone honestly it sounds so gross 😅. This video could be improved 10000% if you just included the clean tone along with this other tone. Thats pretty cool that the dingwall has a 3rd pickup route if you wanna swap around the pick ups or add a 3rd and re wire it up. So at least i gained something from watching lol
