    Question Stealth Bongos only available this year?

    Forgive my ignorance on when limited finish runs end but....I was wondering if one would be able to buy a Stealth Bongo next year? Are they limited to this year only? The reason I ask is because I really am looking at the single H Bongo5 Stealth but would like to wait to see the Sterling 5 next year and compare which one I like more. My limited funds prevent me from being able to purchase both. I do think the normal Bongo finishes are nice but the Stealth is just too amazing for words.

    I'm a stealth fan myself, and if the sparkle finishes are anything to go by, I would ASSUME Stealth will be around for as long as it is popular and sells (but I could be wrong). Black is a popular colour, so I would imagine Stealth might be around for a while, but obviously there are no guarantees how long any colours stay in the "active" list. We will need someone "in the know" to chime in for definite answers on this one.

    I hope it's around long enough to be able to have an EB bass in stealth one day, but right now I'm working on obtaining something in GREEN! But I need more GREEN for the GREEN!

    I love the Stealth.
    I wish that finish/concept was available on the 6 stringers.

    I took the last one. It's someone else's turn.

    This one is almost too easy though.

    Starting to think about returning to bass playing in the very near future.

    I'd buy a Stealth Bongo blindfolded if it came with an ebony fingerboard. It's the only thing missing for a perfect-looking bass to me.

    I have another one just like it out on loan that will be around a while so no rush.
