  • Hendrix Stave Snare

    Vertical-stave wood shells

    Percussion · Canada

    Hendrix builds snares from vertical staves rather than plies, so the grain runs the height of the shell, and machines the lugs and strainers for them in the same shop.

    Dingwall Prima Artist

    Flagship multiscale electric bass model

    Canada

    The Prima Artist is Dingwall's Canadian-made flagship multiscale (fanned-fret) bass, conceived as the company's no-compromise instrument. It uses a dual-density body with figured walnut on the bass side and figured maple on the treble side, a neck laminated from five to seven pieces of exotic wood, and handmade Prima Artist pickups available in J-style (PA1), mid-focused (PA2), or three-pickup (PA3) layouts. Offered in five- and six-string versions with passive or active electronics (Glockenklang, Darkglass, or Rupert Neve Designs), it rides on the Dingwall Z bridge and uses the long fan, running from a 37-inch low B down to a 33.25-inch top string.
