    MusicMan Bongo Poll: Who has what here?

    There are so many variants for the Bongo, 4,5 & 6 Strings, fretted/fretless, H/HH/HS & Piezo, it doesn't matter if you are left or right handed, I am interested to see what is the most popular choice amongst the forum members from all the variants listed in the poll above.

    Please tick as many boxes as it applies to you even if you have more than one or one of each.

    Thanks a lot

    Early indications show that the Bongo 5HH fretted is the most popular choice so far. Very interesting.

    how do you associate the results? the way i understand them is that

    HH is popular
    fretted and 5er too.

    doesn't mean they all go together, no?

    Only by average default, you are right it is not an accurate statistic, but it is indeed an indication. For all we know there might be more 4 HS than 5 HS etc...

    by the way a 5 strings can do everything a 4 st.......

    ok ok I was kidding there, time to drop the pilot near Dover for me so I am over and out for a few hours.

    i agree that it can do everything a 4 does. It just can't replace the whole simplicity and magnificence of 4 string single H

    now where can i find a DD bongo 5?
