Hi guys!
Please put all your feedback in here

Thank you very much for selling that Wal MK3 to me I am so happy owning her right now.
Alexis is a great guy and a person of confidence so I would get into business with him again any time! It was so nice meeting you in Munich.

Greetings from Hamburg!

Hi there,
are there any cracks, faultes, dents...? The bass is fretted, right?
Do you ship internationally (to Germany)?
Would you consider trading vs. a MusicMan StingRay HH olive-gold? [url="http://www.abload.de/gallery.php?key=fxXKnWVZ"]http://www.abload.de/gallery.php?key=fxXKnWVZ[/url]

Thanks a lot!

...won't get any lower than this, guys!

The SR4[b]HH[/b] DD2 is no longer available...
During the last couple of days, I played it over and over again and what can I say: its sound just blew me away...

But the other two SR are still waiting to be sold soon.

[quote name='Duarte' post='663725' date='Nov 24 2009, 02:48 PM']True.Those are very fair prices, considering how much EBMM charged for the DDII's originally.

And you can't argue with ebony boards either![/quote]

Duarte knows what he's talking about - really high OEM prices unfortunately.
But ebony simply kills you: looooooooooooong sustain with precisely defined notes, great depths (without being muddy at all) and well defined heights. I'll never go for any other fretboard than ebony - and yes, I also own StingRays with maple and rosewood fretboards, so I can tell ya'

[quote name='Duarte' post='663079' date='Nov 23 2009, 08:44 PM']Man I LOVE those DDIIs...Gimme a price on the HH, I dare you!

Edit: Woops, just saw your post...haha. That's quite a lot there...[/quote]

But just remember: those babes are almost *brandnew* - and the discount isn't bad either!

[quote name='dave_bass5' post='657215' date='Nov 17 2009, 06:08 PM']Ive just started a thread asking about MM's as i quite fancy one. Its all pretty new to me so im not in any position to make an offer as i have no idea what they are worth but if you would like to post a guide price it might help.[/quote]

Hi Dave,

Well, I don't know 'bout English price levels so all I can do is to refer to prices within Germany (which is where I am from):
The [color="#FF8C00"]olive-golden SR 4 HH[/color] sells for 2298 EUR [url="http://www.soundland.de/catalog/4-string/musicman-stingray-hh-p-256731.html"]link[/url] but I will sell mine for [b][i]1700[/i][/b] EUR which is about 26% off for a nice finish that you cannot order anymore.

The limited [color="#00FF00"][b]Dargie Delight's[/b][/color] are more expansive due to their unique finishes and ebony fretboard with special inlays. So the SR 4 H DD2 sells for 2698 EUR [url="http://www.thomann.de/de/music_man_stingray_4_3bd_dargiedelightii.htm"]link[/url] (please notice mine comes with matching headstock). I'm asking [b][i]2100[/i][/b] EUR. This means about 22% off for a limited bass that you cannot order anymore.

Just played these new mint basses a couple of times in my livingroom to check their sound

Cheers y'all!

a lot of interests but noone finally pulled the trigger... C'mon

...basses still available - go for 'em

[quote name='stingrayfan' post='649470' date='Nov 9 2009, 11:32 AM']Blimey - it's a Bling-ray. [/quote]
not quite as the DD2, but a decent funk-machine in any way

[quote name='budget bassist' post='649088' date='Nov 8 2009, 09:20 PM']yeah i much prefer the dargie 1, i don't like shifting finishes much. Not that i can afford one anyway![/quote]

Shifting colours is one thing, but the sustain is another ) Although I have played EBMM almost exclusively throughout the last 2 decades, I have never had a StingRay [u]without[/u] STB having such a sustain AND punch at the same time... Kills you ;P

here you go: same bass, different light conditions (left one with flashlight turned on)

[quote name='budget bassist' post='649043' date='Nov 8 2009, 08:43 PM']daaaamn, i'd love me a dargie (not a huge fan of the dargie 2 though), and also i'm pretty sure olive gold is still in production.

EDIT: ok looks like i'm wrong... that colour didn't last long[/quote]


Sure, you're not a big fan of the DD2 finish? Wasn't either, but now.... OMFG... this shiny and lively colour blows my mind - REALLY.

Well, olive-gold wasn't available for a long time, but there are some pics within the EBMM forum that show it's beauty (somewhere in a BigAl thread...)

[quote name='martthebass' post='647542' date='Nov 6 2009, 08:10 PM']Green........what's not to like [/quote]

That green finish is a real funky thing, though: depending on the angle the light hits the finish, it turns from green to gold to red/brown (hard to say). DAMN nice, I love it!
