probably!

so tell me something Jack, can i call my new bass an official Big Poppa single H too?

Absolutely. Black, tort, rosewood neck, that's a Big Poppa Bongo if ever there was one.

But I reserve the "BPB" moniker for the 'original'!

I love black and tort and it looks great with the rosewood neck. Congrats on a great bass you have there.

I already have too many basses, but every time I see a nice Bongo, it's really tempting!

Heh nice, I got the big brother, just add 1 pup 1 string :D

yeah, i remember when you got it...awesome! :)


i picked up my sterling for a minute or two last night, and look of the neck (maple/rosewood) felt weird. I'm loving the choco-bongo look.

I've been avoiding the idea of a Bongo. Not saying I've been anti-Bongo exactly, but...I don't know.

But that thing has caused me to rethink the whole business. Black and tort always rules, but somehow that rosewood neck just completes the package perfectly.

I used to have a really nice Sterling 4 Black, tort, birdseye neck. Until I fell for the Bongo that is.

Actions speak louder than, um, posting stuff on the internet!

I hear you Jack. Plotting as we write. Can't see myself getting a rosewood neck version out here in the colonies, but a black fiver with tort, that should be achievable.
