Since I haven't seen offical post I guess I'll start it off.

Standard:
Bongo - Single H (because that is the ONLY way to go ;) ) - Medallion Gold - White Pearl PG

-OR-

Custom:
Bongo - Single H - Metallic Yellow with Red Flames
 
Something special and unique.

Maple necked Bongo, Single H with Piezo, 4 stringers of course. One of a kind graphic to be named after more thought. No Pickguard? Is that possbile?

Hahahahaha, maybe a SPARKLE FINISH!!!!!

BP. LISTEN TO ME.

Have em build you a Blue Dawn Single H Bongo. And one for me for having such a great idea.:D
 
Why not a Rickenbacker?


Sorry, hadda do it.

The trans-green Bongo would be quite a sight, although possibly not a pretty one.

No Pickguard? Is that possbile?

Usually not, Glenn, but I suspect BP knows people who could make it happen. (The Flaming Biff is pickguard-free.)

Blue Dawn Bongo? Maybe....but I think a single H Bongo with the same paint scheme as the Biff Baby Stingray might be nice.

Hey, what about me... my thread :p

A single H DG burst without a pg would be cool too.

The hog Bongo was nice but was a bit heavy - but OOOOHHHHHHH so nice!

Bongo double neck (stanard 4h with a Sillo. neck too)????:eek:

How about a single H flaming Biff (maybe even invert the colors)?!?!?!?!?!
 
F****r Jazz hahahahaa sorry Jack had to follow suit - just one worse.:o :rolleyes:

I'll get my coat...taxi!!!!!

How about natural bongo with some sort of pearl inlays, poss the EB logo on the body. Single H and four string as he tells us its the way to go....
 
Bongo 4 H in purple paisley.

I have a feeling this should be more of a pool to see who can come closest to what BP has in mind for his new axe.

I think it should be a single H Bongo4 whose body is made entirely of 24kt gold. The Man with the Golden Bass, BP's got the shoulders for that one.

We know that laminating is not out of the question, by seeing the flame tops on the aniversary models. An ash top and mohogany back on a basswood, or even a CEDAR, core usually sounds humongibulous without weighing in like a Lincoln Town Car. As a 4-string it shouldn't be a diver.

How about putting suicide tuners on it in honor of the Lincoln?

Alternate between forward and reverse tuners.
