my 1st

[bass-slinger]

Just got a brand-new Bongo...My 1st Musicman...WOW!!! The sound is incredible. Spent the rest of the evening doing my best Tony Levin impression.

Welcome to the roundup slinger....

We ride all types of EBMM Basses here. Being a Bongo rider myself, I can only smile and say "Yup"

Would that be the funk fingers impression?

Cool buy, welcome! Now show us the bass!

So you skipped the Stingray, the Sterling and went right to the Bongo for your 1st? Massive breach of protocol.

Seriously, great choice. I just got another Bongo, my first in 2 or 3 years and I couldn't be happier.

Now about those pics........

 

[patobrujo]

hey nice way to get started, while your friend is taking those pictures at least you could tell us some details (4, 5 or 6 strings?, colour?, pick up config??) welcome...

awesome!
congrats!
what colour?

 

[bass-slinger]

sorry, guess I could have given the details.
4-string HH (I like 5's and 6's too, but they can retire the 4 string when they pry mine from my cold, dead hands)
colour looks like it is cabernet pearl (from comparing with the website)
shell pickguard
actually quite a nice looking bass
thinking of getting a moonstone p/g, just to have a couple of options
thinking the name "Vino" might suit it.

..and the Tony Levin imitation consisted of an octave pedal and a copy of "Secret World-Live"...I love "Sledgehammer" I'm thinking I may need to make some funk-fingers though.

I'll try to get pics in the next couple of days...already plotting to get Bongo #2.

 

[rhythmCity944]

you cannot have a better brand of bass in my opinion...at least with all the customer service backing the instruments...I know my 3 girls are out of warranty but they are solid as a rock and play and sound like a bass should...

congrats, you'll never look back

 

[Psycho Ward]

Welcome! In your honor I shall play my Bongo 4 HH tonight! OOps that one is in the shop for a setup. I'll go with the Bongo 5 H/S, Jewel hasn't had a night in a while.

Don't for get the pictures, its part of the EBMM mind control factor.
