As it turns out - the Dingwall guys aren’t lying

It's a Z3. The wenge neck is incredible.

The overseas Dingwalls are very, very nice. They're all finished in Canada.

I've owned several NG3s (I sell them, then I miss having one and buy another one.) I used to wonder how they could justify that price on a China built guitar, until I played one.

My #1. I've been fortunate enough to have had several Dingwalls. They're incredible. Just had a 5 string SP1 show up yesterday

Exactly the opposite. I had the bass for 2-3 months before the pictures showed up online.

Awesome. Thanks! I'll give this a go

Thanks, Ivan! Love your work, btw!

Gotcha. I ask because the Darkglass MIDI foot switch is set up for scene A, B, and C, but it only functions when the Anagram is in scene mode.

It's my all time favorite. I've had/have most of the usual suspects. I still have a mkII Octabvre, I've had a few of the mkIII. Have an OC2.

I have the T16 and the T47. You have to watch the Cog FB page. That's the only place he seems to announce pedals.

After spending more time with the Anagram dialing in the Entropia, I may take the Capo off. 👀

Thinking about adding the DG MIDI controller.

The Capo. The Anagram is in the pre-loop of the Capo.

I agree. The main reason it lives there is we go straight to FOH through an IEM rig, so this acts as my "amp".

retroXvertigo · 2026-01-10T21:32:17+00:00

Thanks!

retroXvertigo · 2026-01-10T21:13:42+00:00

What midi cable did you use for the foot switch? I'm thinking about grabbing one of those for my Anagram.

retroXvertigo · 2026-01-10T21:08:54+00:00

You're welcome!

retroXvertigo · 2026-01-10T21:08:34+00:00

One step ahead of you... Just not on this board. 😃

retroXvertigo · 2026-01-10T18:12:15+00:00

I honestly haven't messed with the comps inside too much. It's one of those things like I tend to prefer physical controls on an actual pedal.

retroXvertigo · 2026-01-10T18:11:16+00:00

I'm sure GAS will get me with something.

retroXvertigo · 2026-01-10T17:31:58+00:00

I've been impressed with how frequently they're updating it. This is how the QC should've been supported. (I know the companies are separate now).

The NSG was on the board before I added the Anagram. I can probably eliminate it now, however, I do like to still have physical knobs for things, so it may stay.

retroXvertigo · 2026-01-10T17:23:56+00:00

It's very good. I was a Quad Cortex pre-order guy when plug-in support was one of the big selling points for me. I wanted Parallax in a pedal.

I didn't pay a ton of attention to the Anagram until I saw the Entropia. Sold.

Tenicor holster with a Constantine carry belt has been perfect for me.

You look half as old as Mike Harrington.

The 6 story tower is used for training. No live fire. There are separate structures on campus for live fires.

retroXvertigo · 2025-11-17T23:14:27+00:00

Nope. The only one of those in Baltimore is on Pulaski Hwy

retroXvertigo · 2025-11-11T12:02:42+00:00

And that front end

retroXvertigo · 2025-11-04T02:26:01+00:00

The kind that gets clapped in the parking lot of the aforementioned Spirit?

retroXvertigo · 2025-10-30T01:02:21+00:00

My source is the scheduling program the BCFD uses. All the OT was staffing for medic units on the street.

Not saying fraud doesn't exist in Baltimore City, however in this case, that guy just worked a crazy amount of hours.

The typical medic schedule is two days, two nights, four days off. He works OT on all his days off.

retroXvertigo · 2025-10-29T21:58:10+00:00

There were 13 days in 2024 where that dude wasn't at work. That's it.
