[Big Poppa]

2. The Sterling 5

3. 2007 L.E.'s...You wont believe it........Im going to torture you with hints for the next few weeks.

4. The suprise of the meeting is my commisioning a BONGO 6! More info later on that along with the motivation and justification....

Oh yeah Iforgot BFR.....you will know what BFR means in 2007

You guys need better jobs and wives with amnesia, or we need to grow this forum. I cant keep picking on the brainwashed and sleep restfully.

The meeting was Big Poppa Dudley Dargin Jon Watkins Drew and BIll Scozzari They also once again stuck me with the check...

Sounds v interesting BP -

can't wait to hear what you've got lined up for the 2007 Ltd Edition ....

 

[Dr Stankface]

20th SR5 specs???????

Shower time

 

[azzy_wazzy]

Waaaaaaaa I need a richer husband!!!!

Well, I'd better push for my payrise then I guess 2007 LE's and BFR... veeeery interesting.

Although I am gassing for an anniversary Sterling of some description

 

[tkarter]

Bongo 6 H. Awesome BP.

tk

 

[bovinehost]

Damn, and no one thought to call me?

A Bongo 6er, eh? You are slap crazy, but it sure is fun to watch.

 

[kaaikop]

BP, you gonna get some of us in big trouble here...
BFR... Big friggin relapse... "but Honey, that's the last one, I promise!"
(yeah, right...) I got one on order, and another one looks like I'm winning on Ebay...

 

[bassmonkeee]

Hmmmm....BFR........I'll start the speculatin'.

Bongo....Flamed maple body....Rosewood neck?

One, please.


If there is ever a bass that would make me consider owning a 6 string again, it's the Bongo.

My DD will arrive in '07 so it'll be tough for the '07 Ltd Ed to top it, but I have a feeling you are up to the challenge. And, that, quite frankly, scares the poo out of me.

 

[adouglas]

Bongo 6 *could* be the "ain't never gonna happen" Bongo guitar....
"Never" is a strong word. Has BP ever said "never" about a 6-string bass?

A 6 bass would require a new bridge casting, new pickups...which it seems to me would only be justifiable if they were used for more than just a one-off commission.

Hmmm.....

I'd better start wearing bandaids on my fingertips to keep me from chewing my nails off. 20th SR5...broad hints about all-rosewood necks...this new Bongo (though I'll never be a 6-string bass player).

I have a feeling I'm going to be buying something (or multiple somethings?) expensive in '07....

 

[muggsy]

Hmmmm....BFR........I'll start the speculatin'.

Bongo....Flamed maple body....Rosewood neck?

One, please.

Make that 2. As I've said before, if you make a Bongo with a rosewood neck, I'll find a way to buy it.

I'm glad I can't play more than 4 strings, so I'm immune to the 20th Ann. SR5, the Sterling 5, and the Bongo 6. It will be very interesting to see how many of those extended-range bassists out there start preaching the Bongo gospel after they try one though.

 

[bovinehost]

This is going to be fun.

I just got off the phone with BP......this is going to be fun.

Start selling your non-collectables now.

Maybe look into a Tupperware dealership.

A paper route, perhaps.

FWIW, I'm in trouble, too.

Heinz is looking worried!

[tplyons]

I'm most worried about the Bongo 6. How am I gonna get a pair of new SR4's with this?

 

[Dr Stankface]

Heinz is looking worried!

BFR....

Biff's Flaming Retrospective?

A Sabre with a flame paint job!

 

[Oldtoe]

I'm going to start unlearning how to read English. This forum is to blame. I have no funds to perpetuate this unrequited purchasing urge. Damnation.

4. The suprise of the meeting is my commisioning a BONGO 6! More info later on that along with the motivation and justification....

OK, so there might just be a single H Bongo5 DD in mint condition for resale when the BONGO FRIGGIN 6 COMES OUT!!!!!!!!!!!
please don't be foolin' with that BP, cause I've got a buddy with a handmade 6 that might come my way but if you're not joking then I'll leave the coffee-table and MTD thoughts fall by the way side

 

[soniq]

So that supposedly Photoshopped 6er Bongo floating around is actually real .

 

[bovinehost]

if you're not joking then I'll leave the coffee-table and MTD thoughts fall by the way side

He's not joking. You got that paper route yet?

 

[tkarter]

I am just gonna look me up some 6 string flats while I wait for the BIG Bongo's arrival.

BFR Bongos Finally Rule

[Dr Stankface]

I hope you were joking about Heinz. Because i'm kinda broke.
