2007 LE Blue Dawn Bongo4 HH Piezo Unlined Fretless
2003 NAMM Egyptian Smoke Bongo 4 HS Fretted
1994 (April 29th) Sterling H, Black, Maple, Matching (Rad Red LE Neck); Fretted (not in my possession)
Through MarkBass Amplification, of course.
Of course, if you really wanted to fix it, black is BY FAR the easiest color to repair.
Just go to an auto parts store, and buy a black paint touch up kit. A couple of coats and some ultrafine sandpaper and you're cooking. Not as amusing, perhaps, but more likely to keep the paint from chipping away than a bandaid.
But, if you are going to leave a bandaid on it, you need to get some Sesame Street, or Hello Kitty bandaids, instead. Plain tan is so......Fender.![]()

I like that the Bongo is resting softly of the floral linen while "under the knife"

It really looks like it needs stiches.
