I'll give this fugger 10/10 for trying. Now we know why Bongo headstocks get dinged so easily!

One day in the store, this bass actually floated up off of it's hanger on the wall, and eeirly hovered for more than a few seconds before it fell to the ground. I know what you're thinking, but I'm telling you the truth, I witnessed it as well as another co-worker. The bass just levitated upward, hovered a moment and then fell to the ground. A customer nearby, was quite shaken by the incident, and claimed he saw a little boy, with a devilish grin, running away after it happened, but neither myself or the co-weorker saw the little boy, although we did hear some serious cackling, and some muffled laughter. I get goosebumps just thinking about it. The bass suffered an infliction or two, by falling, and I've pictured them, or at least tried to. There are a couple of nicks near the top rear bout, a pinpoint dent near the upper cutaway, a few more nicks on the headstock as well, and I believe it slightly bent the volume knob

I had a snowmobile like that once... the damn thing started acting on it's own,
and went right for a big tree. Lot of damage to the front end.

Didn't know at the time "it was haunted", makes me feel much better, LOL

 

[Alma]

I don't get it. Why did Dargie call him?

..... maybe to shut him up about the strange happenings that have been witnessed around Bongo's lately.

For breaking quite a few bits of the dealer agreement (ie having an auction on a new bass for less than the minimum advertised price for a new instrument, saying that he'd sell out of the country, etc).

To talk to him about shipping a new instrument out of the USA I would guess?

My bongo has never floated.

I don’t know about this haunted Bongo thing, but I believe there are Bongos in heaven. See the Bongo has scared the hell out of more people that most preachers have… that’s a good thing in my book.

 

[Disquieter]

couldn't he title the bongo as a demo / ding-n-dent kind of deal?


being a floor model and damaged, it's far from new...
