Рет қаралды 132,447
Жыл бұрынIntroducing the Rio Dream Bass - the much anticipated John Taylor signature bass in collaboration with Dingwall Guitars.
With a sleek custom finish that takes its inspiration from Duran Duran’s seminal Rio album cover, the latest signature model from Dingwall Guitars embodies the personality and stylistic range of the band’s 1982 multi-platinum record.
The series will launch with an individually numbered limited edition Cranberry Pearl colored model, followed by the release of three other production model colors: Black, Vintage White and Seafoam. Check duranduran.com for updated information on this signature bass!

was fascinated by the look of this bass when i first saw john playing a black model. would love love love to get one myself. The RIO edition sold out quick but I guess the artist side of me could modify a standard one to my personal liking. Rio is the first bass line I have learned... still working on mimicking john's syncopation style so not there yet. John is the main reason why i decided to finally add bass to my repertoire of instruments I play. Lots of people and musicians didn't pay attention to DD's overall musical talent back in the early days but I always did thanks to my first crush L.

Importantly, we are all still waiting on the minimalist bridge as a retrofit for our D-Rocs, NGs, and Combustions It looks like the initial runs of Taylor Dream basses in the cranberry Pearl are sold out, but it looks like a few additional colors are on tap.

I use an ampeng v4b with 6 ampeg 10's. just enough grundge and smooth punch. low end is powerful. Dingwall Combustion 5 srtring.
