Dingwall Combustion C3 5-String - Whalepool Burst

The Combustion C3 in Whalepool Burst has that instant “pick me up” look. The quilted maple top shifts like water under light, and the swamp ash body keeps it feeling lively and comfortable. The five‑piece maple neck and pau ferro fingerboard give it a fast, clean feel, and the multi‑scale layout makes the whole instrument look sleek and modern. It’s the kind of bass that stands out before you even plug it in.

Once you start playing, the character comes through right away. The FD3n pickups and EMG preamp give you a ton of usable tones, from tight and focused to wide and aggressive, and the Quad‑Tone selector makes switching voices feel effortless. It’s balanced, responsive, and built for players who want a bass that looks sharp and performs even sharper. The included padded gigbag rounds it out as a ready‑to‑go, stage‑friendly 5‑string.
