Description

The Super J is a reinvention of the classic J-style bass.

The look and feel lean towards the traditional, however the tone and quality are everything you’d expect from a Dingwall. For ideal clarity on the B and E-strings, alongside a big and warm quality to the D and G-strings, the scale length has been shortened by 2″ from our standard length.

Alder provides a traditional warm tone. We build the body slightly thinner than standard to reduce weight and provide a bit more resonance.

Following in the spirit of the original American Hot Rods, the headstock has been stripped down and reimagined to open a whole new world of tonal possibilities. Designed and manufactured with our custom string tree, milled from phenolic and featuring smooth and rounded string paths for snag-free tuning.
