Addiction?

I stopped by Guitar Center this afternoon and they had a new lava pearl Bongo HH on close out. Had never actually played one, although my stingrays get tons of action. Needless to say, after an hour of test-playing and negotiation, it is now resting on my workbench waiting for me to go do a minor set-up on it.


Welcome to the club...


When it clicks it clicks doesn't it?

Congrats on your first Bongo. Ahhh, I remember my first Bongo.

You can never have your "first Bongo" again, but you can always get more. And, you will.

First, welcome to the forum.

Second, I may have the left handed 5 string brother to yours, (I'm on a small monitor right now, so is your Bongo a Black with abalone guard?) Beautiful bass you have there sir!

Third, make yourself at home and get to know these fine folks here.

And finally, have fun! :D

Yeah Sapphire black with abalone pg - the photo doesn't do it justice tho. I'm sure everyone else has the same thought about theirs.

I've had a chance to spend a bit more time with it (good ol' understanding mrsPhatbassdood :D ) but I can't get over how good it sounds. I break out in a big grin every time I plug it in.
