My favourites are the sterling silver and electric blue. I generally don't like blue basses, but that one kicks ass! And the white one, oh yeah, too bad we can't have that on the Bongos...

Now for the follow-up question: Does this mean some colors might be discontinued?

I haven't seen it in person, but I'm guessing this pic is closer to the real thing.

Bass Body Interchangeable?
Hey Dargin.
I have the 5 String Bongo in Black. But I've fallen in love with the look of that SS. Was wondering if one could purchase just the bass body to interchange?

WOW!!!

Now THAT's cool! Would be killer with a light blue paisley pickguard and colour matched pickup covers. Totally TAFKAP!!!

Has EB ever made or does anyone know if they are planning to make a Daphne/Sonic Blue color? Imagine how sweet a Daphne blue Stingray with A Tort guard would look.

I agree, that would look awesome, but Ice Blue is probably as close as you can get right now.

I'd never have thought but... I love that colour scheme... now if the pickguard was blue paisley it would be over the top!
