... how fabulous the set up is on my DD SR5?

You guys at SLO absolutely ROCK!

I can't wait to unleash this thing on the crowd at the private party we're playing tonight. I hope they bring a clean change of underwear.

All of my EBMM's were set up great fresh out of the box. The only thing I've ever adjusted was I gave my Bongo 5 H a truss wheel turn a couple of weeks a go. And that's it!

You know I'm supposed to be getting one of them DD things. :D

Whoo Boy--Not mine. The Dargie 5H Bongo did not like the ride from SLO through Arizona to Georgia. My truss rod needed some tightening in a big way. But, a little tweaky tweak, and then it was set up perfectly.

When Jon took a look at my HHp Bongo, it came back with the single best setup I'd had on the Bongo since I owned it, though. And, I keep my El Jardinero de la Muerte guitar pick with me at all times in honor of that setup and that man. I just wish I didn't put my bottle in front of his face in the one picture I got of us together in Dallas for the shrine. :rolleyes:

Perhaps I've said too much.

+1 on the Jon touch!

My Sterling came back a couple of years ago after spending an afternoon with Jon and it played like magic.

Also, I spent a good amount of time with Jon in Dallas... I didn't get any pics, but oh, the memories... :D
