This is a discussion on Bongo 6 Update! within the Music Man Basses forums, part of the Gear Talk category; I'm not the target for that thing, but damned if it isn't impressive, even to a moron like me!...

    I actually saw Jack play a 6 string this weekend. Fretless even.

    Looks great. Is it too early to start asking questions about neck width, scale length, etc?

    I hope we'll see JM playing one of these later on this year! Not holding my breath, but a guy can dream! (no pun intended)

    Guys I told them to post this just to keep you in from the beginning. You will see many revisions and tweaking and as usual with prototypes your input will be ignored~!!!!!!

    I appreciate all of the well intentioned design comments but for this to work you guys are spectators.....

    I have ordered the body to be increased by 2-3%...we will se that one next....
    Two requests, please
    Please contact customer service prior to posting instrument issues
    Please don't PM me
    Thanks
    Please dont add me as a friend on facebook....my life is an open book here as it is.
