It's Official....Bongo 6 "In The House" !

[kylierider]

Very cool!!

 

[Sweat]

WOW how cool is that bad boy, very nice congrats

 

[bigvissch]

One word. AWESOME!

 

[paranoid70]

Cool looking Bongo. I still haven't quite got the feel of a 5 string, so that one looks like way too much bass for me.

Warning - dumb question: Is the highest string tuned to B like a guitar?

 

[bigvissch]

Of course you can tune it to whatever you like. But normally a 6er has a top C string.

 

[Aussie Mark]

Do you name your basses? If so, that one is so "USS Enterprise"

 

[Dr Stankface]

You've got a football field for a fretboard!


Looks great!

How did you know that I am a TREKKIE?


I haven't named her yet.

 

[sloshep]

Adds a whole new meaning to "Walk the plank"

Sorry I couldn't resist with a name like Captain Fingers.

 

[Ripper]

That thing looks tough.

I still cant believe EBMM would ever produce this beast. I'm out of words.

 

[cliff78]

i'm definitely gona buy a bongo 6 when i get the chance

 

[steve21]

I'm in love... after playing a REALLY amazing Bongo 5 at the EBMM kiosk at A Taste of Chaos and hearing John Myung playing the Bongo 6 again last Friday... I'm totally in love.

 

[bassmonkeee]

Beautiful. That's the pickup config I want on a 6 string. Maybe next year...

 

[Psychicpet]

I'm officially in trouble... thought it was bad enough that we've got a pair of MTD 535s comin' in this summer but we also have at least one Bongo6 on order as well.... I am so screwed


well, here's to my EP selling some copies to afford windows for the townhouse!! (that means it'd be ok to bring another bass in... )


Great looking Bongo btw

 

[Kitsapbass]

it looks AWESOME!!!!!

 

[Keith_Mak]

I'm still waiting the Left hand Bongo 6!!

 

[jefft54]

Beautiful. But 6 strings and only 5 fingers. How do you play it

 

[CaptainFingers]

Beautiful. But 6 strings and only 5 fingers. How do you play it

I think I've grown an extra finger.
I've been playing a 6-string Yamaha TRB6P since March 1992. I'm very used to it now. I'm almost 48years young, and been playing bass since age 13 (1973).

 

[strummer]

Dang, that is a serious piece of gear!
Real glad there isn't a green one or I'd be in real trouble

Beautiful. But 6 strings and only 5 fingers. How do you play it

5? Bummer I came with 10 fingers (well 8 fingers and 2 thumbs.....which sometimes feels like 10 thumbs).
