Sheldon Dingwall | The Life of a Leading Bass Innovator
Manage episode 421777553 series 3565752
For this week’s episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Sheldon Dingwall outside of the ancient Osaka Castle in Japan.
Sheldon is the founder and CEO of Dingwall Guitars. The modern champion of the multiscale bass, Dingwall boasts an artist roster including Lee Sklar, Adam “Nolly” Getgood of Periphery, Jacob Umanksy of Intervals, Jean-Michel Labadie of Gojira, Ali Dean of Architects, and musicians that play with Hans Zimmer, The Dave Matthews Band, Devin Townsend, Dweezil Zappa and many more top artists.
Something that sets Dingwall apart is its ability to balance boutique craftsmanship with a more corporate production style business model. With Sheldon’s unrelenting drive and ambitious vision pushing it forward, the company has gone from strength to strength as a major force in the world of bass design.
I wanted to know what shaped Sheldon into the entrepreneur he is today, what he sees as the philosophy behind his business, and what the life of a bass company owner is really like.
