Hey kids
We didn't use ebony because we have had problems with very early ones we did with drying out and splitting and cracking. Our truss rod system works better with rosewood and maple ebony is just a litle to stiff.

We almost went for a high tech plastic but didn't think our servers could handle the bitching.

Glad you like it I really think it is a great bass

Thanks BP. It is a great bass, and I agree that the flat black finish and black hardware looks sweet with the rosewood. I'm still messing with the preamp, but the range of tones available with the HH configuration is amazing.

Gary--you need to update your profile! :D

Done. Thanks for reminding me.

I guess I've been too busy enjoying the Bongo. :)

It's making it hard to concentrate at work these days, but on the bright side it is improving my practice habits. We'll see how long that lasts. :rolleyes:
