Oh, rub it in, will you?

:D

Congratulations, Tom. Does it fit in that little shed?

Jack

If I wanted to rub it in, I'd have left the "at Jack's expense" in the post. :D

Sorry--it's a different beast entirely with flats through non-EA amps. I can't bring myself to part with it.





I want to see a picture of Tom wearing that monster.

I'm seriously considering inserting some damned punctuation!

But this isn't about punctuation. This is about a guy in Kansas who plays Lynyrd Skynyrd and just bought the biggest damned Bongo on the planet!

Nice. Single H would be (no... WILL BE! Need flow, fast) my choice too.

It feels good I am more sober than I was when I played a Bongo 6 the first time in CA.

Strap it the same as Aggie and as soon as I figure out the C string she is ready to gig.

I love it BP there is not a flaw on it and no bent knobs or dinged headstock thanks to the wonderful case.

I might be a skinny guy but I bet I can beat up anybody that says Sterling Ball and company doesn't build the best basses ever.


BP I gotta go with flats on it though. I can't spank and wank for sour apple crap.

It sure is pretty and there are no QC issues. No shipping damage. Nothing but good times.

I showed it to one of the guitar players and it scared him. :)


I watched Dave LaRue playing the one in CA to see how you finger one and by golly I learned something.


I am so over joyed I know I don't make sense.


Can't thank DuBaldo Music enough. Nor those who built this wonder Bongo.


Oh and single H kicks butt in a Bongo 6 too.

TK, looks great!

And man, what an intimidating sight it'll be when you get up on stage with the 6 string, lol. I can hear the hillbillies: "Dang, that there sure is one huuuuuge geetar!"

Also, I can't help thinking the Bongo actrually looks better the more strings it wears.
