Randy Jackson Visits the Factory....lots of fun was had

[jim777]

I would sell lots of stuff to get a Bongo5 in this color! Any chance this could come out some day?

Randy: Hey, that's a mighty fine looking Bongo over there.

BP: Don't worry about that. This has chambers.

Randy: That Bongo sure is green.

BP: No, look, this has chambers.

Randy: Mmmmm, Green Bongo.

BP: Chambers Randy! Chambers!

Lol!

 

[Big Poppa]

he did like the green bongo....the original prototype with a bunch of knobs!

Yes, but I sent actual EMAILS about it.

Sure, I'm grasping, but when you're not Randy Jackson, you do things like that.

It is a very most excellent color, boss.

And I like that orange sparkle business, to no one's surprise. RJ seems like one dead cool cat.

 

[Big Poppa]

He is really a special person...His wife may be even better just a wonderful lady.

I would like to see a Bongo in that Orange Sparkle finish with ebony fret board! That could look killer too?

 

[jim777]

An orange sparkle Bongo would look cool, but this thread is about the Green Bongo

(And Randy Jackson too... LOL)

Yes, yes, yes!

Yes, yes, yes!

I thought this Thread is about Orange Sparkle Randy's Sterling and his visit to EBMM factory

...but, talkin' 'bout this Green Bongo, do I see light weight tuners on it, or it's just matter of light/shade?

Well I zoomed in to 300% and it sure does look that way..

Now that you guys mention it, the Bongo did miss out on "the sparkle experiment".

I'm pretty sure that's a guitar.

 

[koogie2k]

Cool pics and thanks for sharing. The factory tour at the first bash was one of my favorite life events! Cool bass too.

 

[MrMusashi]

I'm pretty sure that's a guitar.

i know bp said it was a prototype.. it just looks as if it is on a line with the bongo, thus looking bigger than it is

one can dream though?

[Holdsg]

I thought BP said he has several instruments of torture ready and waiting at his command.

It's quite obvious to me that Sterling Ball & Co. have a special room(s) in SLO/Indio filled with "Xperimental" one-off, unique desireable bass guitars; in every pick-up, color, neck radii, accessory, combination you can dream of, and many you can't..

And he and his selected krew conceive, build, and PLAY them AT WILL, then give them to fortunate and deserving playas like R Jackson, C Young, T Levin, D. LaRue...others. Nice to be a King.

Every once in a while fortune may smile and opportunity presents itself so some average (yet deserving) MM fan and player
grabs up one of these "X"-designated masterbuilds, like say, Oh, a Mahogany Bongo......
(bwaahahahahahahaha)

Boggles the mind to IMAGINE what might be in those rooms....

I'm with u. The head seems a bit large for a gee tar.

Isn't that Fort Knox?
