    First post and an avid ERB bass and MM Bongo lover. I got a question, if someone could answer it, I'd be very grateful; Will the 6 string come with defferent pickup configs, such as single H, THAT would look really, really cool, H/H looks kinda clutterd to me. Thanks in advance.
    I can go DEEEP!!!

    Sweet. My next Bass was going to be a fretless, and I have been toying with the idea of trying out a 6 string configuration.
    Was heading back to Warwick for it, but if that becomes a reality, I would love to have a bongo in that config.

    Tuesday Torture - Bongo6 Style

    Hot off the CNC machines....




    The first six necks, mid process. They still need carving, inlays and frets. That should come tonight.


    The first two HH bodies. H and HS to be made tonight.

    -and yes, they are WIDE.

    Oh, yeah. That's the stuff.


    Has a decision been made about piezos in the six strings yet?
    Big Al 5SSS Sunburst, rosewood fretboard, tort, EB Flats

    Franken-Bongo 5 HHp (The Billy Bass), daphne blue, mint pickguard, EB flatwound strings

    Franken-Bongo 5 SHp (aka Moby Dick, the White Whale), black fretted neck with a abalone pickguard, EB Slinkys and a BassMute.

    is that basswood?

    i think that would look really good with trans finishes or natural/burst finishes.

    Oh man...I just soiled myself. Are all of the fingerboards of the same material? I love the 2 middle ones of a deeper brown.

    Those pictures are very very cool. What happens to these 6 basses, ultimately? Will they be 001, 002, etc or are these just prototypes that get tucked away in BP's basement somewhere?
