    Pulled the trigger

    On yet another EBMM Bass. This will complete my trio that's going to go to college with me. I've got the H Sterling, already have the HH piezo BD Bongo fretless on order. I'm really close to ordering an HS Bongo in Egyptian Smoke. All 4-strings, of course.
    I'll put down the deposit for the HS Bongo, then will pay off the rest when I get back to Italy in Mid-June.






    Oh, and I got a gift last Friday from my mom. GK 700/210 combo. YAY!! She's gonna buy me one for college. Will be ordered mid-june time frame also from Thomann.de as that's when they're supposed to get them in-stock.

    Sounds like a great mix of basses. You'll love the HS. Egyptian Smoke is an excellent color, and I can't say enough about the HS combination. Congratulations! Where are you going to college?

    I'm going to be (hopefully) going to Leeds, England. I still have to do my audition tape, which I will be recording this Saturday and sending to them.

    Just pulled the trigger. Put down the deposit and will pay the rest off when I get back to Italy mid-June.
    Thanks Beaver for putting up with me and my questions yet once again, and thanks Mike too. And Keith for looking in to the shipping stuff.

    The guys at Bass Central really are great guys. My 3rd order from them, yet only have received one bass. Killer prices though, I couldn't say No to the deal Beaver hooked me up with. You're the man.

    The deposit is down, in case you didn't see that post. Should be paid for by Mid-June and in my hands 1-2 weeks after that.
