Well, Santa stopped by Tokyo a little early this year.

See what was in the box he left......

I'll upload the larger versions of these and more to a web site later for your viewing pleasure.

I've got some questions for Jack, but I need to go to sleep so those will have to wait until later.

Those're beautiful pics! That's a beautiful bass! :thumbs up:

very nice. very very nice. you bongo nuts are making me want to ditch getting a ray and go strait for a bongo.

Beautiful..
With that in town there's definitely no way Mothra would risk the beating from Giddy's dual-H BONGO!!!!!

Beautiful. My 4 banger has really taken over the herd here at Camp Bovine. God, what a noise it makes! And it plays like....no descriptive words available.

Ask away, I'll try to answer. Congrats on what looks to be one hell of a fine bass!

Well, Bovine, I'd say you've done a superb job at promoting the Bongo here. Like you said, the design really stick on you after a while. I'm beginning to long for a Bongo more than a StingRay! Hahaha

Too bad you don't see many Bongos (or Sterlings for that matter) on eBay...

Where have you guys traditionally ordered your Bongo's? The ones I know about are Bass Central and chucklevins.com. Also, what has been the average price you've been getting? It seems that you have to pay extra for Bass Central for a case, which isn't bad, because I think Derek said they're not shipped with cases to begin with.

I'd really like to hear one but it doesn't seem like they'll be coming here very soon.
Does any worker of EB here knows when some Bongos will be shipped here? has Marom (Israel's EB dealer) ordered some?

Oh well no rush... i'm perfectly satisfied with my SR and i have no intentions of replacing it

p.s- great pictures!

I have a question also Bovine....

How close to the Stingray sound does the Bongo come? I know there are allot more "tones" you can get from it - but when I want the signature Stingray sound - am i going to get it from a Bongo?

thanks in advance

Two weeks ago I bought my first 'Ray.

I found this sight the following Monday.

I was perfectly happy with my new 4 string bass.

Now I am going to have to save my coins so I can get a Bongo 5 to go along with my 'Ray.

Thanks guys.

Really, thanks.

Yeah, but at least you have one on order. It will probably be this fall before I can justify spending any more money on equipment. I'm in the body shop business. Maybe it will hail sometimes soon and I can make some more money fast. I don't wish it on anyone, but it sure helps my pocketbook!
