refinish my bongo?

I just want to point out how horrid BC's photog makes that finish appear.

Boys, never use flash if you don't absolutely have to, okay? And definitely NOT straight on!

Here's me playing the beauty, I just think black, egyptian smoke, white, or graphite pearl would suit me more.

Although a part of me feels like trying to trade is like putting a good dog up for adoption. Me and my DG bass have played some memorable little gigs.

You're the one who plays it, so far be it from me to cast aspersions, but I sure like mine!

I'd love to see Desert Gold with a tort guard. Any photoshop gurus keen to oblige?

A good dog would always prefer being put out for adoption over being rebuilt into the doggy he wasn't.

good point, and agreed. I've abandoned all thoughts of refinishing, even professionally. The quality of the original finish is gorgeous.

GOod choice a refinished bass has at least 30% less value

My DG has really grown on me although it is torted now. I just don't have any pics since I torted it.

I live in Irving too, and the only conclusion that I can draw is that they are plastic...

Hey! Those are real! That's an azalea bush in my back yard in full bloom last spring. There's another one right next to it that got wiped out when a tree was cut down.

Here's a pic from last Saturday's gig of me with my DG Bongo with the Tort guard.

Of course I don't always look at the neck.
