[usedtobeachacha]

my Bongo 5 is so great. So great in fact i used it on a recording with my new band. our tracks (@ www.myspace.com/ziazanband ) were recorded live in a rehearsal studio with full band to two track and this bass just sails through the mix. check it out.

Good sound, and interesting instrumentation: drums, bass, and horn/s!

They need you to be big in the mix. Good playing too.

And to find it again and realise it was me and that you all had cool things to say is really cool. A weird little suprise. we've only just begun but one things for sure the bongo ain't goin nowhere. It just sails through every take!!!!!

Peace, Love, and Soul

Some of us have honestly learned about Bongos even when we didn't want to.

I played a bongo 5 recently and I am just not getting the attraction to it. Not to knock you guys who love it, but I just cant really get into it.

You must turn the knobs a bit. Clear the mind and leave what your were playing at home. Then ask the band what bass they choose. That will probably be the Bongo.

I love that SR5 of mine more than my life. As most here know. My band, said when I got the single H bongo. That, is the bass that makes you better than you are and fits.

Been playing that Bongo since. Thanks Jack and Ben.

Not every bass is going to be for every single bassist....but did you see the video from our last Saturday gig? Nothing but a Bongo 5 single H and recorded using only the little mic on the teeny camcorder, but....a testament to the power of the Bongo.

Now imagine if someone really GOOD had been playing it!

Anyway, the links are right here if you're curious:

[maddog]

Bongo = 18V of pure goodness.

I'm glad I didn't have any liquid in my mouth when I read that.

what about me grandpa?

This grandpa listened to you long ago. Wanted and bought a single H Bongo 5.

This grandpa loved his SR5 so that he doubted. Still this grandpa listened. Up to the point of the rounds any way.

Once I got the flats on The bongo 5 H one happy grandpa. One happy band. I ain't even that good a grandpa bass player but the band sure loves the Bongo 5 H grandpa is playing.

You may feel free to beat the crap out of me in Texas BP. The rest of ya, I will fight back.
