Wow, if I had a list of "Things I never thought I'd see," this would certainly have been on it. I need to make that list just so I can cross it off.

Lookin' good, Dude. You might want to think about losing some weight, though. I'm pretty sure I can almost detect a third dimension. ;)
 
I'm gonna send you some more Ensure for Christmas, Steve. You ain't fat enough, boy.
 
DG is awesome for the Bongo...wish I had the funds right now to place an order...must finish the rig first!

BTW, if you scroll up and down fast enough, Steve's pic's start to take on a mini-film effect...except for the lack of continuity. :D

I have to agree on the DG thing, I'm hoping to snap up a black HH soon, but if I can sell my Bongo 5 I think a DG 4H would finish things off nicely :) :) :)

What specs is your Bongo 5? HH, HSC, color? How much?
 
A little confession here: when I bought my Bongo earlier this year, I wasn't wild about the color. I bought it for the sound. Somewhere along the way my opinion of DG has changed. I now think DG is the Bongo's signature color.

He's selling a Carbon Blue SC/H 5, but he's in the UK, and something tells me that this bass isn't going to be making any more trans-continental journeys. :D

Of course, while I can't actually speak for Paul, I think he's looking for a European sale.

If you are going with black, and can get your hands on a Stealth Black, I highly recommend it...

...it makes the Bongo look outright mean!

You have Seen The Light!!! Actually I got my DG cuz it was marked down to a really silly clearance price, but from the moment I saw it I was already happy that it was bright orange [not my first bright orange bass BTW]. I was happy cuz I love bright orange, but also happy that no one else had loved bright orange for the 2 years that my Bongo hung before it was marked down for clearance.
