I am one happy Knucklehead!!

[Sweat]

The first thing I must do is give a big shout out and even bigger thank you to my friend and fellow knucklehead--Headstock-- who made this thread possible, Thanks J

As most know I had a Dargie Delight Luke, great guitar but sold it in a time of family need, and of all the ones I have had it was the only one I regretted selling, actually made me sad. I have been posting in the WTB thread for one but figured it was a lost cause, but out of the blue Headstock PM's me asking if I was interested in his, did not take much thought I jumped on it quickly, again thanks Headstock

Anyways it arrived late last night and al I can say is WOW, this baby is dead mint, just look at the photo of the back! Just beautiful and as said I am a happy knucklehead

Now pics of this fine DD

Luke plays his dargie about 40% of the time live....He is so funny his number one is a ltd edition radience red with the black headstock...I said at dinner last night "Luke that is o90ver 5 years old and now its your number 1? He says "Oh , the number one doesnt have a black headstock" He proceeds to go onstage with the black headstock....

 

[dmullen]

Excellent! I know you really wanted to get one of those back at the house...gonna be a great weekend isn't it!

BP, thats funny, had to go back and look have an old guitar one mag from March 06 with a Luke interview and the photo of him is a Rad Red but not the LE, hell no matter which he plays it is magical

Thanks Don, and yes it will, you know I bring them in and let them go, but that one was a mistake, plus out of all the ones I have shown to the wife the only one she ever really got excited about was the Dargie, she loves the color and is a big martini drinker, she was as excited as I was to get another and being a Luke was a bonus

congratulations Keith....when I was thinking of selling my JP7 Dargie, it was your words of wisdom and regretful experience that made me really rethink my position and change my mind.

 

[banjoplayer]

Great story. Congrats and thanks for sharing the story

 

[brasco68]

Awesome!!! Glad it worked out that you were able to obtain a Dargie again...I couldn't imagine parting with mine.

Thanks, I am glad to have the chance, and glad I helped you with the decision not to sell

Again thanks, love this axe, and I will not part with it again, but even if I had a lapse of judgement, which I will not, the agreement I made with headstock was it would go right back to him, which is the way it should be
