Any Bongos going to Church this Sunday?

My Bongo 5 will be plowing a deep groove, during the 5 Easter services I'm playing in

My fretless HSp has been waiting patiently for the Church to call!

I've done an occasional service over the past few years, nothing steady. But I've always known that when the time comes my fretless will be the "go-to" Bongo for the job!

Boys if you’re going to church to look at someone’s bongos you’re sort of missing the point of church.


I’ve never played bass in church and probably shouldn’t till I get better at playing bass. See I make a lot of mistakes and mistakes make me cuss…

All joking aside, I’m glad to see so many of you guys play in church, I really respect that.

I played my SR5 H last Sunday. I'm off this weel. Easter service we are putting up a 1200 seat outdoor tent with a full stage / PA. I'll be taking the SR5 as a backup bass, but will play my AB-II Dingwall primarily.

Outdoors and 1200 in attendance.....the good ole days. I love the large congregations. Enjoy and some pics would be nice......I plan on taking some pics either this Sunday or Easter Sunday and posting them on the Forum.

That would be a great thread.......Easter Sunday Gig Pics...........

you talk me into it......

That's right, go to the Bongo to get the job done....

I wish I had a Bongo to take to Church on Sunday. But, my Stingray does it's job nicely! I'm actually playing in Santa Cruz at the beach this Sunday for a Baptism service. It's gonna be sweet.

I love Baptism's. MM Basses will do a nice job in any Church Service. It's the tone all Worship Leaders desire.........

There's nothing like that full robust sound and tone of a SR5 or Bongo on Sunday morning.

Hey, now don't forget the Sterlings and SUB's. Mine enjoy a good church service also!

I was thinkin' of applying some purple squiggly lines and dots.....give it that Easter egg look.

We had our $50,000 sound system professionally EQ'ed this week for our upcoming services. While EQing the bass through the house the sound pro said, "Man, what the heck kind of monster bass is that? That thing is awesome!" I just looked at him and smiled knowingly...the SUB5 thunder had struck again!

How cool is that to knock the shorts off the soundman.......

They do thunder don't they?

They play so easy and sound so good that you almost feel guilty for owning one, almost....

I play my Bongo 5 at church sometimes. I have been using my Stingray 4 for years but recently got a Bongo. I think the Stringray cuts through better but I am going to give the Bongo another chance.

My Axis will be there, and our bassist has his SR5...."representin'"

With all do respect to the Stingray, I have owned a couple and prefer the Bongo for it's big thundering low end. I've played P Basses for years and the Bongo comes closer to the tone that I hear in my head or what I need to sound like. Our Worship leader, team members, and especially the drummer love the Bongo tone for our style of music and worship.

What it all boils down to is you have to find the instrument and tone that makes it happen musically for you and your style........
