    Why would you want to grow up?
    Other than wanting to be a bass player that is.

    Erm, John Myung is the reason the Bongo 6 exists, so...
    bovinehost: Yes, I do agree with that, but if there's nothing wrong then there's nothing wrong.
    Beth: I would compare Bongo to Tommy Lee Jones. Bad a$$ and just hot in a weird way...
    cheezewiz: They should take their lace thongs off and play bass.


    Stingray 5 Classic, coral red
    Bongo 5 H, Dargie Delight, in some cave somewhere...
    Bongo 5 HH, Black w/ rosewood neck
    Heinz The Wonder Bass, going back to Jack...

    Yeah, But i mean, are those basses in the picture, John Myungs ACTUAL bass, as in the ones he plays and records with, cause he has bongos in the same color and pup config, probably a silly question, just curious thats all

    Peace

    I think those were headed to Mr. Myung to tide him over until the Bongo6 came to fruition.

    Possibly BP or another great EBMM rep in the know can chime in.

    Fret more, worry less.

    Bongo only bass in Tom's life.

    When I saw this thread before, it made me want a silver Bongo pretty badly.

    And now that color is available!

    A kinder, gentler collection...
