About 5 months ago I posted a thread on here concerning getting a Bongo 5 for my 16th b-day. That has long passed and lots of other stuff has happened, but today it finally arrived. I'll get the bad news out of the way so people may focus on the joy. The case it came in cracked at one part and im getting a free one ordered from MM, at least it served its protection purpose. Now that that has been dealt with...

HHp 5, simply the greatest thing I have ever seen in person, and i've met Batman (;)). I wouldnt doubt that this could have been the last Firemist ever made, since I cant find any more on the site, im assuming it has been discontinued. None of this would have been possible without wonderful advice from this forum. As many of you already should know the pics never do it justice, in real life it is 10x as amazing. Thank you all so much for the help, thank you MM for making such a work of art.

Incredible. That is some birthday present! 5HHp? Holy sh*t, you've got pretty much the most epic bass ever created.

And I think we have a new youngest Bongo owner. Damn you. Takin' my spot!

Psycho Ward how fast was your heart beating when you saw that case?!! Glad it served it's purpose though.
Take Care,

Very, very nice.

Sometimes young people are faulted for not making good decisions - not in this case!!!!

Crank it Man!

Beautiful, congrats. Orange Firemist is HOT! I had an OFM SR4 - that is a darn good photo representation of it ... of one of the many looks it gets, anyway. Enjoy!

Holy cow Psycho Ward, that is insane!
