Official Dargie Delight II thread

[mynan]

I'm still waiting for some replies but one german dealer already wrote that STB was an option... So I was quite confused as I didn't find any informations in this forum 'bout STB availablility - at least in the U.S.

It's not an option in the US.

...now THAT would have been a hell of a bass, but unfortunatelly: n.a. in the US and ways too expensive (4k to 5k USD) in Germany... How I love that :S

IMO, the TBB is extremely overrated...

 

[FunkyPunky]

As I do have both of them, I'd rather not miss STB again...

 

[oli@bass]

ways too expensive (4k to 5k USD) in Germany...

...or Switzerland. That killed any thought of a DD2 order as well.

 

[Big Poppa]

sorry about those prices...

the string through is something we do in batches rarely. It is highly subjective and if people love them then Im really happy

@ Big Poppa:
be assured that this is one of the best options as it gives so DAMN much sustain to the sound... If I had the choice, say between a second PU and STB, I'd surely choose STB. And if I could order a SR4 DD2 with that option at a moderate price, I'd surely do it - despite what happened so far

@ Aussie:
...hm... I like your ltd. SR, too

Mr Funky

THe price thing of USA VS Europe is just something that I have no control over and is a regular topic that usually ends up bad.

I try to offer as many choices as I possibly can. I understand that some love the STB. I however feel that there is a more noticeable difference when you add a pick up. The beauty of these decisions lies in your individual preferences. Im happy that you have two modern stb versions of our stuff.

I personally LOVE them. Wish I could get all of mine that way. Thanks for the ones I have BP!

If you think they are too expensive over here then just buy a plane ticket....
Visit Beaver at Basscentral, you can try ALL the EB's and have a nice vacation over there as well.

 

[FunkyPunky]

Nice idea, Rockon and not even too expensive as I work in the aeroplane industries I already asked BC but they only accept money from US bank accounts :/

 

[Sonnyonbass]

Of course they do Would be to easy otherwise. Just go and have some fun.
I'm thinking of going in November.

Then pay with cash or visit another US dealer

Buzz on the Guitar side, shows at least one of these DDII guitars has shipped... Any idea if this is a one off? Or a sign of things to come. My order was put in in the early hours of the day on the date the orders opened up. I know its too much to hope my big al will be arriving very soon.

Heres hoping

Thanks BP, I really had my hopes up too...

The last one took about 10 months for me due to circumstances beyond EBMM's control. Barring any unforeseeable issues, the DD2's gestation period shouldn't take as long

 

[ProMusicTools]

Anyone here in Germany and neighbourhood to not pass this chance and place a last minute order on a Dargie Delight II bass or guitar in the configuration of your choice?

Do Not! I repeat- do not go to the geetar side of this forum and look at those pics of the two JP DD2's that have escaped early. Absolutely incredible finish, I keep getting blown away every time I see it.
