I knew that the tuneup I gave the Mind Control Ray generator last week was a good idea.

Is it that horrific that I have desires for *both* a Bongo 5 HSp (and specifically a DDII if I could ever find one) as well as a Dingwall ABZ-5? Oh lordy lord, help purify me of my blasphemy!

Not blasphemy at all. Variety is the spice, and all that.
But everyone should experience a Bongo, at least once. Most of us decide that they're keepers. Many who sell wind up coming back.
Naruki, if I were you I'd save up and get that Dingwall to scratch the itch. Let the girls fight it out and see which one stays with you.

Just out of pure curiosity... what tones are you looking for "you think" a Bongo can't get?
The Bongo is so freakin versatile. I would think there would be tones I would LOSE going to the Dingwall.
I have a Bongo & a Sterling & if I wanted some other tone I would buy another bass because I certainly would lose awesomeness getting rid of one of those. No bass can do everything but the EBMM do a freakin huge amount

Yeah I nearly sold my 25 th HSS to get a abz5. They are a great bass but I will also be saving my pennies so I can have both ( anda healthy collection of my other basses)
My fretless ray has been getting a lot of attention lately, pino in his paul young days is just mind blowing !

Can't handle the fanned frets. Glad you are keeping it
Not meaning to critique the Dingwall up or down, but it's my
impression that Dingwall Madness is all about ergonomics, so
the tonal magnificense of the Boingo is simply not part of the
equation here. IOW, what he really wants is a fanned fret
Boingo, but thaz not likely to be available any time soon ...

Good choice not getting rid of your Bongo. I love both mine and they will be with me until either Jesus comes or I die. I have an BFR Roasted Neck 4H and a DDII also. My DDII is a 4HH configuration. Which one is yours?

Good move! Bongos are awesome and Music Man's Bs are nice and focused enough to make the fanned fret concept unnecessary.
5HH! The B-string's a monster on the HH.
Fanned fret Bongo.... lets start a petition

Like Divorcing Cindy Crawford to marry Britney Spears
I realize the reverse scenario would appeal to others depending on age..but I like my version
She's fine just the way she is (talking bout the Bongo)

Glad you were talking about the Bongo, not so much on the other!
