Help! Looking For Info On My New Bass

[ManicMonkey]

Hi All,
Newbie, picked up this bass in a deal about a month ago, and could use some help from the experts on learning more about it. I am a guitar player, so my knowledge of basses is minimal at best.

What I do know is that it is a Sterling dated 4/5/07 in some type of limited run Dargie color scheme. I know that this color is now offered on all models, but I was told that this bass dates back to a smaller original run. No idea if that carries any weight or not.

So here I am, asking the experts. What can ya'll tell me gang? Much thanks to you all in advance for your input. Very appreciated.

That is an original Dargie Delight, noted for its martini olive green color and the matching martini glass inlays. That color is NOT offered on any models currently available and - around here - we value our first run Dargies!

There was also a Dargie Delight V2.0 with a different sort of finish, but yours is an original.

Nice score!

Very nice score! There's something about those first Dargie Delight I can't escape....

Congrats.
Search the forum for the Dargies. They have an interesting history.

Who, in their right mind, would ever buy a green bass???

DD1 is my favorite of all the limited edition runs. Well, that or Blue Dawn...I can't decide.
