Poll.

Which one of the three would you choose, all else being equal, and why?

 

[MK Bass Weed]

Geez...tough choice..as I'm jonesing for the Bongo..

I've done exactly that and went for the HH Ray. The versatility of that extra pickup makes it a no brainer for me...I mean you get two basses in one. If the Bongo was in Las Vegas gold, well then there would be a problem. To me is the harder question would be HH or HS...yeeshh..don't ask, I have work to do!

Cheers,
MK

None - Sterling 5 Mmmmmmm (licking lips, drooling like Homer......)

 

[AnthonyD]

Bongo...

One word: ATTITUDE

It is infused in the look, the feel and the tone.




(And do yourself a favor - throw a 'p' in where available - you won't be sorry!)

 

[Bass Control]

None - Sterling 5 Mmmmmmm (licking lips, drooling like Homer......)

Yeah, I vote Bongo... in Sequoia Gold... (goes into Homer mode as well)

 

[tkarter]

I said Bongo H. I don't really do 4 stringers any more but getting bongo is like owning root.

I chose Sterling HH cause the Sterling is my fav bass of all time (raw angry mids, grrrr), but I keep finding myself with a Bongo in my hands when I'm at the local GC.

IMHO you're going to get more bang for your buck with the two-pickup Sterling than the one with a single-pickup.

It was the Sterling HH for me. Based on my old SR4-HH from '06, it had a nice warm tone with punch.

Damn, I miss that bass!

 

[phatduckk]

im currently LOVING my HH Sterling.

If you had an HS Sterling as an option i would have had to sleep on the decision

 

[Aussie Mark]

Of those choices, I picked the Bongo 4H, as I already have a Bongo 4HH and a Bongo 4HS, so that would give me a full set. Plus, I don't really like the skinny Sterling neck, as I have gorilla hands.

 

[bovinehost]

I love these basses, but I do love the Bongos most of all, so that was easy.

A single-H Bongo is capable of slapping you backhanded across the face, yet also able to gently apply the topical anesthetic afterward while making soothing sounds.

Just change your hand position and tweak the controls a bit. Ain't nothin' like a Bongo bass.

 

[strummer]

I love Bongos, that simple.

 

[fly]

If you had an HS Sterling as an option.....

this is what i would've picked,but i went with the single H.........just love mine.

 

[shamus63]

If you had an HS Sterling as an option i would have had to sleep on the decision

Agreed!

 

[tkarter]

Some of you are voting more than once me thinks.

So here is another the Bongo Single H rulz

[adouglas]

Bongo.

Why?

Need you ask?

Silly human.

 

[pudgychef]

Bongo 4H ...seems like it could do just about anything...and maintains that classic EBMM vibe!

 

[timmy5strings]

I would say Bongo because I just couldn't get the Sterling to fit me comfortably, I likes to have a bigger body !!
