Four-string SignatureBass of the Periphery bassist
With the Dingwall NG3 Nolly Signature 4-String Gold Matte, the Canadian bass manufacturer Adam "Nolly" Getgood, the charismatic bassist and producer of the djent metal pioneers Periphery, tailors a 4-string E-Bass in trendy multiscale construction. Besides the alder body Dingwall uses an extremely agile "Medium Thin C" neck made of maple, while FD-3N neodymium pickups and an active Darkglass Tone Capsule electronics promise a multifaceted sound spectrum. High-quality Hardware in the form of Dingwall single bridges and precise Hipshot Ultralite bass tuners completes the NG3 Nolly Signature 4-string bass guitar by Dingwall.
Multiscale construction for tighte sounds
The construction of the NG3 Nolly Getgood SignatureBass follows the trendy multiscale construction with optimally tuned scales for each string. Here the range is from 34" (864 mm) at the G to 36.25" (921 mm) at the low E, so that every note is reproduced with absolute precision and even Sustain. While the alder body of the bass guitar convinces with a perfect balance both on the strap and on the thigh, the bolt-on maple neck offers optimal playing characteristics for virtuoso grooving between the 24 fanned frets of the maple fingerboard thanks to the agile "Medium Thin C" profile.
Neodymium pickups and Darkglass electronics.
The electrical sound conversion of the NG3 Nolly Signature 4-String Bass is done by three Dingwall FD-3N pickups, which, thanks to the powerful neodymium magnets, come up with an aggressive, yet smooth tone. The rotary switch calls up the pickups individually as well as in serial or parallel combination, so that the four-stringer comes up with four characterful basic sounds. For precise adjustment of the sound, the Multiscale Bass is equipped with the Darkglass Tone Capsule electronics, which is an active 3-band tone control with controls for basses as well as high and low mids. If desired, the four-stringer can also be set to passive mode.
High-quality hardware equipment
Last but not least, the NG3 Nolly Signature 4-String Gold Matte bass guitar comes with a high-quality hardware setup that will handle tough sessions on stage and in the recording studio with unwavering reliability. On the body, four Dingwall single bridges promise optimal adjustment of intonation and string action, while the popular Hipshot Ultralite tuners not only guarantee precise tuning, but also reliably prevent the dreaded neck dive.
