<div class="bbWrapper">My friend breaks my ballz about my Bongo - saying that I could just play a 55-02 and be done with it.<br /> <br /> I say: &quot;Kiss my a**!&quot;<br /> <br /> But he&#039;s curious now.<br /> <br /> Especially since I&#039;m wearing him down on the whole Bongo issue.<br /> <br /> Now he&#039;s shopping a Bongo and a Lakland.<br /> <br /> I&#039;m curious too.<br /> <br /> I used to have a 55-02.

<div class="bbWrapper">I&#039;ll be getting the opportunity to play both my 55-02 and my Bongo HH as of tomorrow. I&#039;ll do some A-B comparisons this weekend, although it will be on my Hartke Kickback 15 and not my stage rig.</div>

I think UPS just assumes that all basses shipping into Dallas are for Lord Bongo. So it might take a little detour. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin :D" data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></div>
