Musicians Friend, Bongos and Cases . . . Oh my

[Jazzbassman23]

I see that MF has 4HH Bongos w/HSC in stock. I wonder if these are among the first to be shipped w/an OHSC or did MF just slap 'em in an on hand EB case?

Given how much stock they move, I would imagine....or guess, really....that they will be amongst the first to ship the Bongo cases.

With the four bangers, though, there are a lot of cases out there that will work just fine.

It's them big old long-ass fivers that will throw a wrench in the works!

I doubt it.....

We haven't yet started shipping the Bongo's with cases yet. We raised the retail price to include the case around the middle of December. Cases are available to order through any Ernie Ball or Music Man dealer.

I just oredred a case for my Bongo 5 from Bass Central.

Cases have been available for order since October. If someone ordered their bass before mid-December they would have paid less money because there was no case.

Scott, thanks for checking in. Do you know, though, if Musician's Friend is selling Bongos that came from the factory w/an OHSC, or did they just put the Bongos they had on hand into EB cases they had on hand? Or, is there really no difference?

Thanks
