Welcome to the forums! Glad you're liking your new Bongo.

Rules though. There's rules everywhere, right? No pics. No bass. Snap a few shots. Put 'em up there. Then get back to playing the dang thing. :D

Hey, fellow HC'er!

Glad you like the Bongo. :cool:

hi mate, I think your bongo was the first one I saw. My initial thought was 'hmmmmmmm', which lasted a couple of days, before gaving way to a terrible gas that had to be sated. I'm very lucky to have an understanding and supportive wife, who hasn't put up any obstacles.

Anyway, what am I doing posting here when I could be doing far more constructive things....:D :D :D

I meant to ask, what kind of rig are you using PBD?

I'm in the process of getting rid of all the crap from my equipment list.

At the moment, I have my Bongo, and a Fen**r Aerodyne Jazz (whose fate may be in the balance) going into a Pignose B100V, and a Korg tuner. Everything else is surplus, but i'm looking for a DI and maybe an O/D pedal (possibly the MXR unit to keep the pedal count down)

Addiction?

I stopped by Guitar Center this afternoon and they had a new lava pearl Bongo HH on close out. Had never actually played one, although my stingrays get tons of action. Needless to say, after an hour of test-playing and negotiation, it is now resting on my workbench waiting for me to go do a minor set-up on it.


Welcome to the club...

Congratulations on the Bongo.

I've been known to enjoy the Bongo myself.

Jack

Yes, and sometimes you even play them!


Me? I'm enjoying my Dargie Delight Bongo 4H. No, it hasn't been built yet. I just enjoy knowing that it's coming. Makes me smile just to think of it. A real sickness, this is. :D
