Looking To Trade my Bongo

[barkatozz]

I'm looking to trade my Lava Pearl Bongo HH for either another Bongo with the HS config or a Stingray w/ a maple board....preferrably a newer one...'97 & up. My Bongo is in mint condition & has a standard MusicMan/SKB case. I may be willing to sell but I'd rather do a trade. Also the trade can't be a color I already have: white, Black, Rad Red, & Rolls Burgandy.
I brought it and one of my HS Bongos to my gig last night. I was so comfortable with the HS because of where I pick that the HH annoyed me when I played it & wound up switching back mid-set.
Anyhow...here are some pics:

Just out of curiosity, and maybe not appropriate to ask, what would a beauty like this sell for if I were to want to purchase one?

Sorry, can't quote retail prices here.

Actually James, Full retail on new is OK. Discounted retail, no go. And used is just fine.

Ahh...I stand corrected.

I'm willing to let it go for $850 shipped......it is in mint condition.

I have the identical bass. BassCentral sold it to me new for just over $1,000. This was pre-Jack and Steve!

Wish I could help you, but I can't because:

A) I have the exact same one.......

B) I don't have Stingray to trade you...

Sorry for my useless post, but it is a great looking bongo and I hope you get what you are looking for.

I will keep my eye out for ya and hopefully I can direct someone to you.

It's looking like it may be migrating to Evilbay soon.

If it's so "evil" then why go there?

Because there are more people on EvilBay than any other site I could list it on......and besides....as of now there are no used Bongos up for auction right now.

I'll be listing a used black Bongo 4HH tonight but it's not as clean as yours...you should do well with that one I'd say!!

I hope so. I'd still rather trade & get an HS 4 or 5 BUT the bass is sitting here & knowing I don't want to play it makes me want to get rid of it faster.
Actually I have a black Bongo 4HH as well but I'm keeping that one.

Last chance before it goes to EvilBay.
For trades I'm looking for a Sterling or Stingray 4 w/ maple board, any SR5, Bongo 4 or 5 w/ H/S config.
