To the Group ...

About a week and a half ago, I joined the forum asking questions about the Bongo. I got a lot of good feedback and encouragement.

A few days later, I went and played one for myself ... and was officially "Touched by the Bongo Angel." That day, I made up my mind that I had to have one.

Well, today, after some wheeling & dealing, (read: "made an excellent trade!"), I am the proud owner of a 5-string, HH/P, Graphite Pearl/Black Ice Bongo of my very own!!!

I've had her here for just a few hours but I can safely say that all of your advice (and my initial experience in playing one at GC last week) was 100% spot-on. This thing flat out rules!

Ahhh, yes -- it's good to officially be a Bongoloid!:D
 
Welcome to the Bongoloid family... we a loving if not disfunctional bunch - you should fit in just fine with that beast.

This is what I've been looking forward to for over a year, (counting begging for EBMM to even offer one), a lefty Bongo is coming soon to a lefty near you... ME! :D

Would some one in SLO just ship the Bongo to him so he can move on :D
