The Thread formerly known as: Flat Silver Wednesday Torture!!

We had a guest of honor in the Coachella office this morning. These are John's two 5 strings which are headed up the SLO factory with Derek and The Johns tomorrow!! I must say that the Flat Silver looks killer on the Bongo!!! Good stuff.....once again welcome to the team John Myung!!

Either Drew or Jon said that if it were to become available on le Bongo, it would be rather le spendy.

Nice finish, though, however it ends up.

Kevin, I admire your steadfast dedication to black clothing, even in the withering heat. (Unless you're drunk again.)

Beautiful basses, just beautiful.

Jack

It is actually my steadfast dedication to my half empty closet and freebee t-shirts. You can call me "The Boy in Black"!!

Well, you can see in those photos that it clearly isn't flat.

It's too glossy to be flat.

Like black is too dark to be white, if you see what I mean.

I second the "Gloss Flat Silver" moniker or just a simple "Ag 47"
