Dingwall John Taylor 5-String Bass Rupert Neve Preamp – Seafoam Green

Description

*In an effort to reduce cost, we are keeping our stock of this instrument in Canada until purchased by their new owner. We do not have this available in store at our Walpole, MA location.*

The Dingwall John Taylor Signature 5-String in Seafoam Green Gloss proves that great design transcends genres. While best known for his work with Duran Duran, John Taylor partnered with Sheldon Dingwall to create an instrument that combines vintage style with Dingwall’s modern innovation. The result is a bass that feels as comfortable laying down pop and funk grooves as it does delivering crushing low end in a metal mix.

This Seafoam Green finish adds a retro-cool aesthetic to a bass that’s every bit as bold sonically as it is visually.

Why We Like It

This bass takes Dingwall’s legendary precision, ergonomics, and tonal clarity, then dresses it up in a vibrant finish with John Taylor’s stamp of approval. It’s equally at home slapping, grooving, or pounding out low-end riffs in heavier styles. Whether you’re a collector, a fan of John Taylor, or just someone who wants a bass that stands out in both looks and tone, this is a special piece.
