Oh, man...the silver one.....

**dlloyd** · 06-12-2007, 04:54 PM

Yeah.

They're nice.

That's what the Bongo was designed for. They look perfect.

**midopa** · 06-12-2007, 04:55 PM

Be still my heart.

Great work EBMM team!

**kneeoh** · 06-12-2007, 04:56 PM

Oh man... those are too gorgeous! I guess I know which EBMM bass I'm picking up (searches desk for bank statements).

**EBMM7181** · 06-12-2007, 05:28 PM

I love the silver Bongo 6 , I'm a 4 string guy.... all those strings are intimidating!

**Rano Bass** · 06-12-2007, 05:58 PM

Oh my God, from draw prototypes to finished product in one tread

I hope JM likes it. I'll be seeing them August 22nd. So far away.......

those are awesome - makes me wish I could do a 4 string justice let alone a 6 string!

This is wild. Many of the anti-bongo people on talkbass are going gaga over the bongo 6! I really can't understand why people see the shape with 6 strings and all of a sudden they change their minds. Meybe someone here can explain this phenomena!

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

Enjoy.

Jon, these are fantastic. I especially love this angled view of the Silver one.

So many Balls, so little money, so little time to catch all the limited edition/anniversary ones.

Maybe it reaches a different demographic.

Wow, this has been an amazing thread to read through... The Bongo 6 looks spectacular - somehow it's even better proportioned than the 4- and 5-string. It'll be interesting to see how Myung likes it, as he is a long overdue (and painfully obvious) addition to the EB roster. I wouldn't worry too much though, as I'm sure hell love it.

You know you are doing something right when you have a guitarist raving over a bass - congrats to the entire team for pulling it off and a big thank you for sharing the process with us.

Cheers

Eske

I can't explain it but I'm one of those that thinks the Bongo gets
better looking with each addition of an extra string

**hankSRay** · 06-13-2007, 09:02 AM

Hot damn those look good. The 4+2 headstock looks sweet.

**Big Poppa** · 06-13-2007, 09:23 AM
