Bongo 6...HH.... Saphire Black....

[Psychicpet]

oh sweet jebus, it finally arrived at Act 1 and I stopped by after Cole's soccer games yesterday morning......

I really have to say, the new basses are amazing in their own right and also excel at what I think they are at being "transitional" models. What I mean by that is much like the Sterling 5 I feel is the 5 that'll get any die-hard 4 string player who's maybe been on the fence about stepping up to a 5 the one for them. Likewise, the Bongo 6 is a great bass on it''s own and for "discerning" 6 string players but more so, the feel and balance of the bass makes it a strong, if not the strongest, candidate on the market for any 5 string player who's debated stepping up to a 6 but worried about a plank of that size. The thing is nuts!!!!

Definitely have a Bongo6 (or two) on the wish list.

AND... if anyone's interested, it's still at Act 1 in Langley and Tom's great to deal with!

dude, I wish. no budget for new basses on the horizon for a little while yet....

but SMAKK does need a new 6 AND a 2nd MM to add to his arsenal

I do have to say that the Bongo 6 is a beast!! I love it, coming from playing 5 bangers, it really was not that hard to get used to

Sighs maybe maybe I do have a 7 string something or other I could sell but I also have something expensive coming in about april.

I will have to see if its still there when I get back from Montreal, london and Toronto (if Pete hasnt bought it yet in otherwords)

Id like to second dealing with Tom, he is one of the fairest guys to deal with out there. I enjoy Steve's sense of humour as well.

Im gonna kind of miss Petey working there but looks like I am getting updates on whats in either way.
