I neglected to put up a pic of my bongo when I got it (in clear violation of the "no pic, no bass" rule), but decided to take some pics of my new rig...hence a chance to redeem myself...the bongo answers to the name of "Vino"

I have taken the new rig (bongo included) to practice with two bands so far, many "oohs" and "ahs." It really is amazing how this combination cuts, but not with that annoying "bar mid" sound. This leaves me with one question...which MM to get next! (Yes, I think I have joined the cult officially...) I used to play nothing but fretless, and I am thinking a fretless Big Al would sound killer with this rig.

What EBMM to get next?! Go for a Classic StingRay to cover the roots.

I'm really amazed that Markbass amps sound so well with Stingrays - I tried them at GC and they blew my 800RB out of the water.

I have a new to me LMIII that sure does go well with my EBMM's. My SR4 was just a growly tone monster through the LMIII into a pair of 115 cabs tonight!
