Yes they are great...

Wow. They have quite the selection of LE basses. Some DDs too?!? Wow!

Yes DD's too. According to their website they will have several configurations to choose from when they come in...

Were there any single H bongo 4's made in this color? ...

That is the info on the website, but I have checked on other brands LTD's before I was looking for a MM and they come off the price of those even though they are the only ones left so I'm sure they will come off. They have always been good to me in the past. I'll shoot an email and find out. I really want one! I'm just glad I tried some MM's before I bought something else! I really like the tobaco burst w/ clear PG too, but think I'll shoot for a BC to start my collection! ...

I may have been wrong on this. I asked about the DD's and was told this: *Limited number on order, so as supply decreases, price will increase!.....

The ordering window has closed so their stock is already set.

Yes I know. My point was that from my dealings w/ them in the past I didn't think they would jack the prices up when inventory gets low, even on LTD's. I think I was mistaken. I will post when I get the response from them directly...

Basically this is exactly what is happening. Here is the response I got:
"Yes, the Buttercreams are going for close to or full retail. The last DD’s will probably be the same"

I'm assuming it is because they can.

Supply and demand, sir, supply and demand.

 

[lamerjay]

Yea, I know but if I can save $500 and get my second favorite color that's what I will do...

Hmmmm....seems I remember someone in this thread saying that was the case...

There is just no way a camera does that color justice. I seen Craig's and have regretted not getting one ever since.

Well, fwiw, I wish I had been wrong and you were now waiting for your Buttercream beauty to arrive in the mail.


Gary (Freddy-G) has an absolutely stunning SH SR5 that absolutely floored me when I played it. It sounded great, looked even better, and sounded better than it looked.


Um....wait a sec.....leave it to Musicman basses to defy logic and common sense....
