Thanks to our hybrid manufacturing approach, each bass receives a final fret level and set up by our skilled team of artisans in Canada, which means you can enjoy the cutting-edge benefits of the Dingwall Custom Shop at a more affordable price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSelect from a left or right-handed model, Maple or Pau Ferro, 4-, 5- or 6-strings, with or without a pickguard and choose from a range of available of finishes, including Natural Ash, 2-Tone Blackburst, Vintageburst, Indigoburst, Whalepoolburst, and Ultraviolet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"n_spec_title\"\u003eBODY \u0026amp; NECK\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe body is swamp ash and modelled on our Custom Shop Afterburner. It’s compact and lightweight, making for a bass that’s comfortable to wear and beautifully balanced. The five-piece maple neck is securely attached via four bolts, and the fingerboard employs Ralph Novak’s fanned-fret system and a 34–37-inch scale spread (the scale length of the B-string is three inches longer than the G), with a 240mm fretboard radius, making it superfast over a full two octaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e“We’re happy to report that the Combustion is well deserving of the Dingwall reputation. It’s built to last, with plenty of bounce, vibrancy and great sustain, all you would want from a five-string bass. We can’t recommend it highly enough – this is why so many bassists are adopting these instruments into their bass arsenals.

They’re wired to a 3-band preamp, along with a 4-position Quad-tone pickup selector, master volume and an active\/passive toggle switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e“The Quad-Tone pickup selector gave me quick access to several distinct flavors. In passive mode, the soloed neck and bridge pickups were old-school and vintage, the bridge \/middle pickup combo was fat and focused, and the bridge\/neck sound was loud and growly. Changing right-hand position gave me lots of variations on those themes, but switching on the preamp brought each pickup to life and showed me several new colors.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e- Bass Guitar Magazine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/dingwallguitars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/R2P-Combustion-5-String-Whalepoolburst-Pau-Ferro-FB-5-7.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"n_spec_title\"\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Combustion is kitted out with tour-grade hardware appointments, including lightweight open-gear Hipshot tuners and a staggered bridge design for greater sustain and resonance. We collaborated with Hipshot to modify their Ultra-lite tuners, which resulted in a shorter tuning peg that allows proper downward angle at the nut for maximum sustain and improved stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e“The string spacing works well, while the multi-scale layout feels quite natural after a few playing sessions. Take it from Lee Sklar: fanned-frets work just fine! Hipshot open-gear machine heads keep the headstock weight down. Extra touches include a recessed jack socket and the easily removed magnetic plate covering the battery cavity. Tuning stability is equally impressive across the whole instrument.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/dingwallguitars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/R2P-Combustion-5-String-Indigoburst-Pau-Ferro-FB-4-7.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"n_spec_title\"\u003eDingwall Strings\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eDingwall strings have been meticulously tested to maximize performance and deliver a tone that blends effortlessly with any style of music.
