I just bought a Bongo 4HH and 5HH today. After playing them all day, I noticed my hands smelled like I had dried them with an old moldy towle.

I took my Stingray to a jam today. After playing bass for 4 hours my breath smelled like beer.

Maybe this is due to the acidity of your sweat?

Very odd. What do your hands smell like when you drink beer?

Potato chips and peanuts.
