Question about ordering a bass

[MattGreer]

I'm looking to order a Bongo6. Based on this page: Bongo 6 I see the list of finishes and pickguards as well as pickups. Seems like those are the only options, but are they? I saw a thread somewhere the other day (can't recall where) where an individual mentioned piezo pickups on a Bongo 6, or something like that. So my question is, are there other options that aren't listed on that linked page, and if so, where can I find them?

Thanks for your help!!

I thought I saw Pappa once post here that piezo on a six string would never happen, since the costs to do a production run of the piezo bridges would never be recoupable with the low demand for six strings. Piezo is an option for the four and five string Bongos, however.

Colour options are something you're probably best off discussing with the dealer you intend to order the bass through. There are also "limited edition" colours, for example, that EBMM makes available through their preferred dealer network. The recent emerald sparkle and the current red sparkle are examples of this. Those are only available for order during specific dates, however, hence the "limited edition" status of the colour.

Hi Matt-

The piezo option is not available on the Bongo 6. So yeah, the options you see on that page are what you can choose from. The good news is that no matter what you pick it will be amazing. I actually work for Sweetwater Sound(Music Man Dealer) and I'd be happy to help if you have any more questions or just want to get my opinion on the Bongo 6. I just picked up a Stealth Bongo 6.

Thanks!
