    ya, kind of puts a bit of a damper on the fretless tracks for my project but there's a guy in town who turned his maple boarded SR5 into a fretless, that should be fun but now I know I'll want to replace a bunch of the old tracks I did on SR5 with the BONGO!!! so know onto to figuring out a colour for the fretless (the H/SC+piezo sounds good for the pu's)

    I have TI Flats on my Bongo 5, TI Flats on the Bongo 4 HSC and LaBella Deep Talking Flats on the Bongo 4 HH.

    Flats on a Bongo just sound.....amazing.

    I second the flats on a Bongo. I am pretty sure that the black tapewound La Bellas are the Deep Talking Flats with the nylon wrap. I'm getting some serious thump, and still sound crystal clear. I was just planning on leaving the tapes temporarily, but they might have taken up permanent residence on the Bongo 5HHP.

    Good thought. My fretted Bongo (on order) is Sapphire Black.

    I am seriously wanting to order either Graphite Pearl or Medallion Gold.

    Haven't really seen good pics of Egyptian Smoke to judge by
