Here it is...I know lots of guys round here got that,"Bongo fever" but I want to know how do you stuff so much freakin coolness into every SR5 you guys ship. The thing just reeks with mojo....and is it a looker! Absolute jam to play....I mean....the Bongo just doesn't stand a chance. :eek:
 
Now why ya gotta go there? It isn't Bongo vs. Ray5 or Ray5 vs. Sterling vs. Stingray. It's all about the fact EBMM makes a bass for each of our tastes. Now there's a whole bunch of people who would be fine just staying with their Stingrays and couldn't give a crap about the Bongo, but there are just as many people that wouldn't of given EBMM basses a second look if it wasn't for the Bongo. How do I know? I'm one of them. It's only through the Bongo that I have come to realise the greatness that is a Music Man instrument. Now I want atleast one of each!

Ah yes, the mojo funnel...I think those work so much better than those newfangled mojo injectors.

BTW, I do have to say that I agree. I've got quite a few different brands of basses around Camp Bovine, but that SR5 of mine is just special.
 
There ya go....The Mojo funnel is a work of art in itself. I just wish we could show it at the open house, but then we would have to kill y'all. Pity.

Y'all really do put out a superior product.

My 2band 'Ray is a work of art, while still being a "workhorse" at the same time...

My shop has "9" SR5's and they are all smoking. Not a dog in the bunch! No other brand of bass that we sell in that shop has the same consistant quality from instrument to instrument....none! :cool:

Great point Scott. Ive had 10 or 15 EBMMs now, and while one may have had a small edge here or there, they have all been great basses. Ive never gotten a "bad one".
 
I have a bongo and love it. I have yet to try an SR5 and I am sure it rocks. I have seen many a SUB and played those as well......damn fine in it's own right. Would love to get my hands on a SR5 to just feel the "mojo" as ya'll put it. :cool:
