Dingwall Amos Williams Signature Combustion 5-String - Limited Edition 

Model Number: AMOS-5
Serial Number: 16040
Weight: TBD - Bass is in transit to Fret Nation

Renowned for his groundbreaking bass work with UK progressive metal pioneers TesseracT, the Amos Williams Signature Dingwall Combustion brings a host of performance-driven features to the Ready to Play artist lineup.  

Reflecting Amos' commitment to reducing waste, each Dingwall Amos Signature bass is build using carefully selected body off-cuts that would have otherwise been too small to create a full instrument.  This sustainable approach ensures that every bass is truly one of a kind with its own distinctive grain pattern and visual character. 

Body and Neck:

Built on the proven Combustion platform, the body is primarily alder with laminated stripes of flame maple, rosewood, and mahogany.  The 5-String features Dingwall's signature Multi-Scale design with a 37" scale length Low-B making it ideal for not only modern progressive metal music but all music and extended-range playing. The bolt-on five-piece maple neck is reinforced with carbon fiber for enhanced stability while its slim C profile ensures a fast comfortable playing experience.  A Pau Ferro Fingerboard with 24 Frets completes the package working alongside Dingwall's existing Multi-Scale system to deliver balanced string tension, improved intonation, and exceptional articulation across every string.  

Pickups and Electronics:

Loaded with three Dingwall FD3n pickups and EMG electronics, the Dingwall Amos Williams Signature Bass has been designed to deliver exceptional clarity, punch, and low-end authority.  The control layout features active/passive switching, a 4-position rotary pickup selector, and a 3-band active EQ giving you everything from articulate clean tones to crushing modern metal sounds while maintaining note definition across the entire frequency range. 

Hardware:

A Graphtech nut, lightweight open-gear Hipshot tuners, and Dingwall's minimalist bridge combine to provide outstanding stability, resonance, and rock-solid performance.  Other finishing touches include a recessed output jack and a magnetic battery compartment.  Every detail has been carefully selected to ensure the Dingwall Amos Williams Signature is as dependable on stage as it is inspiring in the studio.  

Dingwall Strings:

Dingwall strings have been meticulously tested to maximize performance and deliver a tone that blends effortlessly with any style of music. Dingwall was the first company to design strings specifically for multi-scale instruments. Available in both nickel and stainless steel, our strings provide an even tension for optimal balance, letting you experience the warmest highs and the tightest lows possible.

Note: Dingwall Basses are shipped with Dingwall Nickel Strings.
