Hello Sir!

How are you? Hope good. Well I wanted to talk to you about a situation at hand, and hoping that you could advise me on that. I am a bassist/student from Pakistan, and have been an EBMM fan ever since I picked up the bass 3 yrs ago. But the real blow came about a year n a half ago when I jammed with a visiting musician from the US, and he had a Bongo 5. Man oh man, even though I was not very tone savvy back then, that thing sounded like Swiss chocolate!! Amazing! Still remember the tone when I played it! Couldnt sleep that night!

Then I heard about Bongo 6 coming out. I needed a 6 string too, being fed up with the starter Yamaha RBX375. So I decided that if I ever buy one, its gonna be a Bongo 6. But then I checked the price of Bongo 5 online, and almost gave up the idea. My parents can barely keep up with my studies n living expenses, and I make roughly $120 a month off a 40-hr/week job, which is primarily my pocket money. I cannot afford it!

But I had to make a choice, and I did. Ive been saving up for over a year now, and have just hit the $1000 mark last month! If this keeps up i will have enough money soon to buy my dream bass. But there comes the final hurdle, and that's where I need your help. WHERE TO BUY THE BASS FROM??

EBMM has no dealers in Pakistan, and no website delivers EBMM products (or any other for that matter) to Pakistan. There is a dealer in India, but the region's political situation is not very favorable for cross-country purchases n deliveries. Now I am quite confused right now, seeing tht even if I DO manage to save up the total sum, I still might not be able to get it.

So the point of this extra-long scale PM is this: Can EBMM provide me with a solution to the current situation? Is there a way of buying Bongo 6 without paying a fortune above the average price? Please do respond asap, im quite worried and confused right now. Thanks!

Regards,
Aftab
