man, that's some cool bass. explain to me what's going on with the fanned frets. what's that all about? is it an intonation thing, or what?

 

 

It is for intonation, comfort and tone. I have long fingers (on a bass player? go figure) and the fanned frets were IMMEDIATELY more comfortable for me. The seem the match the radius of my hand perfectly. Also, low B strings need a longer scale to not be "flubby." Most basses are 34" scale. Extended scale basses are typically 35". The Dingwall is 37" on the B string (only 32" on the G).

 

It was love at first sight!

Some of the ESP custom shop guitars, they look like something you would hang on the wall like a piece of art just to look at it.
