bongo owners on this forums may be older, but that has alot to do with their
discernment and taste for an instrument that is a little more HiFi sounding than the other great basses like the Stingray and the sterling.
We know what sounds good to us and to the studio engineers.

I'll have you know my first record was KISS alive that a neighbor gave me in like 1977 or so! I just refuse to believe I'm old! I'm turning 35 years young in a couple of months.

I'm 25 and have some good news...
I just saved a load of money on my car insurance and that my fretted BoNgo is a B.A.M.F. and that my fretless BoNgo is even better.

Gezzwatt? NonOwners cannot read the results of the Bongo Owner Poll, unless they lie, by casting a vote. How would a nonowner know if they are treasonous to their own demographic if they can't see it? Therefore, a poll that does not include a choice for all forumites needs a choice called "Abstain".
Cuz we are "The Boomers". The Boom Bass is the choice in Boomer Land. No surprise.0557 said:bongo owners on this forums may be older, but that has alot to do with their

Or maybe just a lotta guys who stood in front of a bass cab and next to a drummer for thousands of hours without benefit of ear plugs?

I still can't believe it but I'm forty six. I was forty five when I bought the Bongo.

Nope gramma raised me up. She used to make me go cut a limb outta the peach tree every time I messed up. She then would put some good ol fashioned granny whoop ass on me. Then one day she had to get mad over my killing her peach tree.
She likes the bongo though.
She is more a " Red wings" listener really. If you know what I mean.
She has alway been a capable of hollering. Used to play a mean fiddle. She also used to shoot squirrels off the back porch.
Don't be messin with my gramma
