Bongo

[tkarter]

When BP and crew go way out to make a great bass they get it done.

The bongo is, that great bass.

You SOBs gave me the Bongo fever, which I cured (initally but now have the need for MORE BONGOS)! You also put me in the direction of going with the Group IIs which I put on a month ago and it has just blown me and everyone that has heard it away!

Congrats on the Bongos!

Congrats, man!

I can understand you. Believe me: I've got MY Bongo the same day! Oh, what a marvelous bass...

A Bongo in Ukraine?

The World Domination Initiative is proceeding according to plan.

Well... Frankly, although Ukraine is not that far from "outer civilization" (e.g. an hour by plane to... say... Paris ) it's pretty hard to find decent instruments here. I'm not talking about great basses (like Bongo ) here at all - these are ultra rare.

Thanks! I'm a quarter-Polish myself so there's no problem here
This bass plays and sounds even better than it looks!

hey congrats right back, looks great, I still dig my SR 5's but the Bongo has it's own thing going. I like the EQ, I never had a 4 band, it's great tweaking it. man I'm really digging this bass.
All the best, Rick

Thanks, Rick! Sorry for hijacking your thread

I like the stealth very much too... it was another option on my "to get" list. but the DGold jumped out earlier...

I have 4 other basses all various types of sunburst, so I figured I should do something
different, the stealth certainly fits that bill. I wish they made a Bongo in Surf Green, my goal now is trying to a sell a guitar to fund the Rosewood neck Bongo.

Your going to love that babe..
Congrats

I love this freaking bass, the neck is killing me. I can't believe the tonal variations.
On my second shot with it, I'm seeing you can really tweak the eq, . I'm going to post my rswd. 20th 5 banger here right now, before I go to other venues. The impossible dream is looking very possible, this is nuts, this is my new main bass just for neck alone.

Ugh ohh... you got BAS (Bongo acquisition sickness). There is no 12 step program and there is no cure. I'm afraid you are just going to have to make the best of it by playing every Bongo you see. One day there may be a cure, but know the team at MM are working hard to ensure there are no shortages of Bongos for us to play.

Yea, pretty soon you will at this stage

I deleted the Rosewood SR 5 sale, I can't part with any of my balls. ( sorry ) I've got 3 weeks to fund the Rswd. Bongo, and here I was dealing with GAS all these years and now it's morphed into BAS, freaking hysterical ! They really kill !
