So my bongo is sitting in lincoln, about a 3 1/2 hour drive away. The guy wants me to collect it, and I have no car. It is possible for me to collect it...at the end of january! The annoying thing is...I'm right close to lincoln at new year but with family and not 'allowed' to go buying basses. Technically I'm not 'allowed' to sell my P-bass, which is what I am doing.

Oh well, hopefully it will just sort itself out.

Merry christmas y'all!

I need to ask your opinions, I initially thought this was graphite pearl, but was maybe decieved by the flash. Is this saphire black or graphite pearl? These are his pictures as I havn't got it yet:

IMO that's sapphire black with moonstone. Graphite pearl would be more grey, in a graphite pearl sort of way ;)

Saphire Black.. Looks the same as mine..
Hold it up in a black light.. It will look a cool blue..
It stunned me the first time I saw mine under a black light..

Is cool in natural light as well..
Got a buddy to drive you over to get it?? If you do go.. :)

Hey Zak,
Maybe the family will cut you some slack if you behave yourself over the holidays and let you go get that piece of Bongo heaven...Naw hop on a bus and go get that bass. If you find yourself in the dog house then you will still have your new Bongo to play so the dog house won't be so lonely:D

Merry Christmas and have a great New Year

They don't call it stinkin lincoln for nothing. Just hop on the bus, gus. I mean zak. Problem is, you wait and find a nicer one closer and for way less. I think the seller should be trying to get it to you, being the way the economy is.

I'm trying to get him to meet me halfway, as a train would be easy. If not he is coming down to me on the 23rd anyway. I would like to spend some quality last days with my P. I've told him I'll buy it back at some point!

I can't wait to play some funkin' awesome tunes! I even sold my MuRF so it doesn't suck my sweet tone!

I bet you are dying right now with anxiety...I know I would be...actually I am, I haven't seen my Porsche 944 in over a month since I left it at the shop while I build a new transmission for it...

Hmm, a Bongo might be a good to myself bday gift next month...18Volts is tempting

Good luck
