In Conclusion. Dingwall basses are exciting, quality instruments for players who like to explore the cutting edge of construction and design concepts. Modern Prog and Metal players will love them, naturally, but we see these as appealing to Jazz, Fusion and Funk bassists too.
Considering this, are Dingwall basses active or passive?

Likewise, what are the dimensions of a bass guitar? This is still often regarded as the standard length for a bass guitar. On a modern bass guitar, 30″ (76 cm) or less is considered short scale, standard (also called long) scale is 34″ (86 cm) for a 4-string and 35″ (89 cm) for a B-E-A-D-G 5-string, and extra-long scale basses of 36″ (91 cm) also exist.
Herein, what bass strings does Nolly use?
I use Circle K strings, who make custom gauge strings.
What is a fanned fret bass?
Fanned frets or multi-scale guitars place the frets on a calculated angle to give each string a different scale length. Fanned frets give guitars a longer scale length on the lower strings and a shorter scale length on the higher strings.
What is a multi-scale bass?
Multi-Scale basses will have slanted bridges and often have slanted pickups and are always designed with a keen eye, from the ground up, to ensure optimal playing performance. And they just seem to sound that much sweeter too. Big names that are creating multi-scale basses include Ibanez, ESP and Dingwall too!
