    Unbelievable!

    When will that HS Bongo 6 be out? Man, I want one! I just hope the S pickup will be placed a little farther from the end of the board for easy popping access. And a passive switch will be good, too!

    Tuesday Torture - Bongo6 Ready to Hit the Road

    Here they are, the very first painted and fully assembled Bongo6's!





    ... and in silver





    I have to say, I'm very pleased how well everything went together.

    Enjoy.

    Sweet Jesus... I want one now!!!

    I am assuming that these prototypes may be sent to John Myung?

    Oh man, I can't wait, but I'm seriously regretting changing from a 6 string to a 5 string... oh man...

    My money is on Christmas. Can we look forward to the window opening up before then BP? I know they may not be ready by then (then again, if the window opens in August-September), but these would be sweet Christmas gifts to one's self even if they don't come for a few months.

    My other question about prototypes and Myung stands though. This would be good to know before they begin the US leg of their tour.

    I can't believe people think the Bongo looks so weird. Looking at that picture with the added string it looks curvy like some kind of futuristic archtop guitar.

    Those look sweet. I can't imagine where that silver one might end up....

    It might not be for a year, or two, but I will own a six string Bongo.

    Good work!

    You just might see the black one on tour with a certain progressive rock band this summer. For some reason I can't seem to find it in the factory any more...

    amazing looking. I really like the black.. too bad I'm not a super great bass player in a certain progressive rock band...

    congrats on building a great looking (and I'm sure great sounding) instrument!!

    Here's hoping that they don't hit the pavement too soon--I'm still trying to think of a way to fund purchase of a 30th Anniv. SR that's available locally. If the 6 is out before I snag it, I will have more anxiety than I can handle.
