Interview HERE

John Myung on being named greatest bassist of all time: "This is very heavy" | MusicRadar.com

 

[recover82]

I have some serious beefs with the so called 25 greatest bassists of all time. I'm pretty sure their list was based on their readers votes... some of the rankings are laughable. Paul Gray of Slipknot and Cliff Burton of Metallica (rest their souls) at #3 and #5? Really?

[MK Bass Weed]

Yes..but did you read what he said about the BONGO?....maybe a new one?

 

[five7]

A true master!!!

 

[MK Bass Weed]

New Bongo?

New Bongo?

My best guess would be that they would introduce a JM signature model. I mean, he is giving input on what HE needs and not everyone is going to necessarily have those same needs. I'm guessing JM signature Bongo - smaller runs with slightly higher pricing - and possibly a bit of eye candy added to the bass that is unavailable on standard production models.

Maybe what he is saying is that it will have the "Game Changer" feature built into it!

Edit: OK. read the article. It is different dimensions on the body and neck. Maybe it will be an option like color, pickups and number of strings are.

Alternate neck dimensions / string spacing options is exactly what I would love to get for the Big Al 4. If there was one thing I would change with it, it would be a wider, beefier neck.

 

[Kamakiriad]

That's an idea: a SLO neck available on the Big Al/Sterling (to make them wider)! Cool interview, I'm curious to see his bongo ideas. Is that a particularly different finish on that one, or just light reflecting?

+1 for this part!
