Finally a Dargie for Strummer :D

[strummer]

I was so disappointed in not being able to get a DD last year.
Then a couple of days ago I thought I might want a fretless, and so I put my Desert Gold up for sale here in sweden. The ad was just hours old when the bass sold, and I started thinking about what kind of fretless Bongo I'd choose.
Then I saw Biker4him still hadn't sold his DD, so now he has
Dayum I'm excited, about 40 days 'til I get the Bongo in my hands!
And I figure I can get a fretless pretty much any time, all I need is some more money

Dagies Rule!

ah you could have talked to me too, my local guitar store have a fretless DD 5string sitting there. No one wants it nor the 4 string DD It's saddening watching them sit there.

Congrat, Magnus! I'll be waiting for the pics.

 

[Colin]

Yeah, pics will be around Jan 13 or so, when I return from Vegas.

I'll be at the Circus Circus, cheap hotel since well it's a work trip and we're not into spending big bucks
Dates Jan 4-11.

I stayed there maybe 5 years ago, the last time I was there. Vegas was a blast, I didn't expect to like it as much as I did as a reserved Englishman . Circus Circus was cool, but we swore if we could ever afford to go back, it'd be the Bellagio next time.

Yeah, we check the pricing every year, and every year it turns out circus circus is the only decent place we can afford if we want walking distance to the trade show...

But could I choose, I'd be at the Mirage

We stayed at the Bellagio the last time we went to Vegas. Honestly, we preferred our stay at the Luxor.

Oh ok, thanks for that, we'll shop around next time.
