Can anyone beat the splendor of my reflex:

Someday I will have one like this. Maybe even an ebony board for a Tuxedo look?

Great bass Keko

Thanks mate,

I'm especially proud with that picture from above which is made by professional photographer arranged on a genuine leather expensive furniture lighted by Swarovski Cristal lamp, ...it gives to my reflex kind a Royal touch!

Nice one Mugsy. I actually considered buying one of these, but couldn't swallow that price tag.

I thought this was kinda swell...

I've always been taken by this one-off mahogany-bodied Bongo. This was the first time the finish that was ultimately put on the 30th SRs was seen in public.

I got to hold it at the 07 desert bash. It's heavy but gorgeous. Killer birdseye on the neck.

The bass now belongs to a forumite who snagged it while I was sleeping.

+1 on that one!
I thought that Dave Larue had it, or was that ANOTHER one off gorgeous Bongo?

No, this is Dave's.

See how I'm cleverly inserting a lot of Bongo pictures? Mind control, baby... planting the seed....

That's 3 votes - that bass was mentioned twice on page one of the thread. Looks like it's winning so far

1) Not THAT heavy; +10000 Killer BE neck; incredulous

2) You snooze; you looze!

Actually FWIW, I also considered the Pin-Striped Sterling that was 4 Sale, and the GC guy brought the Custom-Painted 'Ray over to my house for fear I would reject the Mahog Bongo due to a very small chip on the upper horn.

All 3 EBMM "Vault" basses were astounding, but I have to say over the years, that Bongo is choice, prime-Cut drop dead insanely gorgeous, unbelievably well-built, and an absolute tone monster as all Bongos are.A true one-off gem. I'm honored to be able to own and play such a fine bass, and grateful to the talented people who built it.

And best of all..

It's an HH
