B D S W 4

[slucas]

Well the G A S won me over again. Just got off the phone with Brandt at The Perfect Bass and ordered a B D S W 4. That would be a BLUE DAWN SECRET WEAPON 4. I have never even played a single H Bongo but have heard more than I could take from some of the forum "sages" about the secret weapon. So BP, Jack, Mobay, RockinRayDuke et.al, it's ALL YOUR FAULT

Congrats! You'll love it! I love mine!

 

[maddog]

You'll love it!

yes, yes you will.

This makes me so proud that I could cry.

But I think I'll just get a sandwich.

Good work, man!

Nice. Sounds like a plan. I may end up with a black fretted bongo instead of a blue dawn fretless due to a trade that may happen.

 

[hankSRay]

when are those blue dawns set to ship out?

 

[saxnbass]

In a while, it's a fair amount of waiting.

 

[EBMM7181]

After I get my Black StingRay =)

 

[PeteDuBaldo]

That's gonna be a nice bass!

You know, Jackson, a dry sense of humor is better than slobbering all over the place.

Ken...

I thought that one was teal......

[azzy_wazzy]

Do we know what colour it's actually going to be yet?

 

[saxnbass]

HAHAH Azzy is so funny.

And we're her favorite bunch of Knuckleheads. YAY

Actually I was talking about the Blue Dawn -- Love that color!

 

[Mobay45]

Congratulations!

I may have to consider getting a Blue Dawn myself. Let's just see how the gigs shape up over the next couple of months.

Thanks guys, I am sure I will not be disappointed. Guitarist in my group says "you bought this without playing one just on other peoples word?".
Also says BP is just trying to sell more basses

My response was I already know the feel and overall tone being I already have a 4HH amd a 5HH. I'm not an excessive knob twiddler anyway and a 3 band eq is plenty for me. Fact is I have only seen dual PU Bongo's in stores. Then I told him BP has all kinds of ice cream for sale he just tells people what flavors taste really good (as many others in the know have the same opinion). Sure he wants to sell basses (needs shoes)
but I had to say I really don't think BP cares what flavor you buy. I have seen blue dawn pics from NAMM of the shiny sparkly new Sterling but hopefully a pic of a spankin' new Bongo will slip out here on the forum before too long

Great choice! If I get a blue dawn LE (and I really want one), it'll be a Bongo single H. The only thing that's keeping me from placing an order, aside from the fact that I'll have to sell my stealth Bongo HH to pay for it, is the tantalizing possibility of a BFR Bongo.

That would be cool, but you know you would need to sell that and much more to get one of those

Yeah, I know, but I have other stuff to sell if the desire is strong enough. If a BFR Bongo is priced like the BFR 20th Anniversary SR5 (which looks like it's worth every penny if you can afford it), I'm out of that race before it starts. However, I understand there will be more affordable (in relative terms, anyway) BFRs as well. I'm just interested to see what they come up with, and I hope to see one before the order window closes for the 2007 LE so I can make an informed decision. If there's no BFR Bongo by then, or if there is one but it's out of my range, I'll happily order a blue dawn single H Bongo just like yours.
