    Can I order mine now?

    Looks great.

    Did you raise your neck pickup or was it that high when you got the bass?

    Pretty cool! It looks like that fretboard might need some wonder wipes.

    Man...that is cool. Really opens up the bass as far as looks go.

    i personally think that the bongo 6 looks like a bass that shouldn't have a pickguard, but i guess EB want to keep the tear shape because it stands out?
