Description
The Dingwall D-Roc is not just another bass guitar; it's a statement of modern craftsmanship infused with classic design. This instrument redefines balance with its fanned-fret system, allowing each string to resonate with precision and clarity. The D-Roc's sleek Khaya body and matching wooden pickguard make it as visually striking as it is sonically impressive.
Engineered for players who refuse to compromise, the D-Roc features custom Dingwall FDV pickups, renowned for their high output and smooth, aggressive tone. These pickups are paired with Alnico 5 magnets, ensuring every note you play cuts through with authority. The headstock design is a nod to the classic, yet it's optimized with Hipshot Ultralight tuning machines to virtually eliminate neck dive.
Crafted in Canada, the D-Roc's hardware is as robust as its sound. It boasts a Neutrik locking jack socket and a unique brass plate system in the bridge, providing unparalleled stability and sustain. Whether you're laying down the groove in the studio or igniting the stage, this bass is your trusted companion.
