    The influence is spreading. BP, you're starting to spell like us. Next you'll be saying "zed" for "zee" and asking for regular coffees.

    I like your way of thinking. This would be a good way to cue them that it's time for the guitar solo.

    I played a bass 6 stringer today and it was totally out of balance - headstock heavy.
    Very strange instrument to play - there again I'm no great shakes at playing bass so what do I know!!

    You know it's SWEET

    How many of these do you think you can put out in a year ?.Is there alot of major re-tooling or just a new code for the CAD/CAM & CNC machines . IMHO I think this could really kick the doors in for every day bass players wanting a 6-string axe in the arsenal...and not having to spend $3000-$4000 for a 6-string bass .I see myself grabbing at least 2 fretted & 1 frettless in the future if the price is in ratio to the normal price of a BONGO 4 & 5 ....And if they go the way of the SR Anniv. with no-pickguard..You'll get alot of those snooty bassists to step up .I know the church bass players in my area are justing praying for a bass like this...I know 2 major Warrior endorsers and on their homepages..they both have Stingrays in 4,5 & fretless...and they keep looking in on updates ..Everybody loves a Stingray ..and this bass is as close..feel & tone as they're going to get it seems to a Stingray-6....Great job BP & the gang

    Awesome.
    That's why, when a pic of a Bongo GUITAR proto showed up on the Guitar forum, lots of us over there wanted to know when they were going to be available!

    Will it be possible to get the same pickup switching system on the HH sterlings? I've never been a fan of blend controls. I usually either go all neck or all bridge.

    also, any chance of offering figured tops?
