Hehehe well, great you've found your sound :)

And, to stay on topic, I've recently kind of rediscovered this baby:

Man, is this bass fantástic. Sounds great, looks fantastic and it's one of the best playing basses I've ever laid my hands on.
This is how much I love it:

2006 EBMM Dargie Delight Stingray on the way next week :D
Love me some HS stingray...
Let go of my Dargie II Bongo H not long ago.
Some say this was an atomic brain fart....But?
Knew I would pick up another Dargie of some sort at some point :D

Ok, so I finally got a good camera and took new shots of one of my J's (the other one is at the workshop)

Upgraded the pickguard with an Allparts vintage red tortoise and added a tugbar for a mor vintage look. It plays very nice, love the active electronics.

Just got my Peavey Cirrus BXP-4 set up properly today. I know it's not as good as the US models, but shoot, for what I paid, it's good enough for me! I really like the sound, the feel, and the look...I am VERY happy with it.

When you're username is "hernameisrio", a Peavey is mandatory. ;)

Beautiful.. the bass isn't bad, either!
 
Great shot of the headstocks, that's cool. Yes indeed, "Rio" was pretty much one of the first songs I learned. I was right smack in front of John Taylor at the Duran Duran show a couple of weeks ago, talk about inspiration. I try not to sound like a total gushy fangirl about it, but he was the one who made me really get into bass. I always liked his tone and didn't really have a lot of luck with finding an Aria Pro II at all, let alone the series he plays...not to mention, the cost was way more than I wanted to spend. So then I literally had the sound of the Cirrus right in front of me all night, and that was when I went, "Hm..." and decided to try and track one down. I could see myself eventually "graduating" to a US model when I have a bit more money. It does sort of bother me how export models are such a gamble...mine is made in China but heck, it feels solid enough to me. Seems like it's not for everyone, but then again, "everyone" but me seems to be into Fender P-basses and I never felt the urge to get one. ...I'm weird.

Dude,

No need to apologize for your taste in basses. You have a really nice set up. The only real difference between yours and some others' gear is $$ spent to get what YOU really want to define your sound. 99% of us would be very happy to have your set up.
