      Oh no.....

      That's torn it.....

      A Dingwall alternative at a sensible price....

      So how do I install bass No. 8 in the house without it being noticed?

      I already went the "miniaturise it" route a couple of weeks ago and I barely got away with that....

      Woe is me.....

      Interesting. Where did you see a price? Couldn't find anything on the Ibanez site.

      Seems like it's gone part way towards the Dingwall model, but the B string on the Ibanez appears to be about 35.5". On the Dingwall they are 37", so not quite the same B string authority as the Dingwall.

      Comes out to about $1275 Canadian, but MF currently isn't shipping here. Someone will, soon enough.
