Dargie 3 on Reverb?

[vaughan]

Noticed this last night- is this the real deal?

If so, will there be a formal announcement/ ability to grab a Bongo in that finish?

I don't know, but I really like that finish......

 

[MudvilleStomper]

Is that some kind of binding on the neck? I think I like it.

Looks similar to the inlay along edges that a recent BFR Majesty had? (I think it was a Majesty in that case...)

The cat is out of the bag, but those will be officially announced on Feb 7th as part of the next run of BFR instruments. The Dargie 3 package (matte green, black 5-ply pickguard, black hardware) is only available on the StingRay Special 4HH model, and yes, it has the runway fretboard with ribbon inlays like some of the Majesty models. We have some of these in transit.

Looks like both of them got yanked from Reverb, so I’m wondering if it was a DIY paint job? If it was a BFR, especially a Dargie, you’d think EBMM would be pumping up the advance notice/ hype.

Good thing they aren't gonna do an AL version of that.... my budget is shot for awhile, and I would have to sacrifice something I wouldn't want to in order to get one...

There is a new AL in trans walnut from SBMM, but no new Dargie 3 AL...

WOW !!!!

 

[bovinehost]

WOW !!!!

I know! The Corporation slipped that right by us, eh?

 

[OldManMusic]

That's a beauty. I still kinda miss the martini glass inlays from the DD1.

 

[Wim Laven]

It doesn't really look green to me. Is that just my monitor, or is it really not that green?

 

[tbonesullivan]

It's ok, but I think I like the DDII run better. That flip flop green/gold paint job is to die for.

 

[the_eigensheep]

I actually don't care for the other DD models very much, but this one is very tempting. Particularly love the runway inlays, all black hardware, and ebony fretboard. Well done!

It's a very difficult to photograph matte green that can reflect slightly gold under the light.

Think "army green" matte (olive green)

""Think "army green" matte (olive green)""
First thing I thought of, and why I like it so much!

I don't usually like greenish finishes but to me it's more of a bronze olive..which I do like!

 

[five7]

Love it! Harley has a color like that.

 

[xjbebop]

Yep... I'd rock that!
