That also means that I'll have a Bongo 4 Stealth Single Hummer available any day now too!

Well, hi there boys and girls, guess who! Got about two hours of playing on this one and you guys were right about the single H. Holy crap. Hooolllleee Crap! F'ing tone monster. Going to tomorrow night's gig. The Lakland 55-94D is pissed at me, I can just tell.
I play 5's as my main bass and have only had two (other was a Modulus Q5) in the ten years I've been using them. Took awhile to get used to the first one, took awhile again to get used to the Lakland. This one feels like I've had it forever. I don't bring gear that new to a gig but this time I'm going for it. We might be talking again once the 2007 LE news comes out!
Oh, and the pictures - I can do that. I was planning on it actually, but have already changed the guard out with the white pearloid one you sent to match all my other (probably soon to be unused) basses. Hope that's OK. I'll do it against a white paper background but been busy too - might be a week or so...
(burps from drinking too much of the Kool Aid) Pardon moi.

Now that I'm back to playing 5 strings I'm wishing I would have changed my DD Stingray HS order (when the 1 day window was opened) to a Bongo 5H. Alas one day..........

I have a Bongo 5H coming as a loaner from Maddog.I'm hoping to like it so much that I can't help but buy it from him
You want to love it Randy play nothing lower than an E on the B string while playing something you know.
It sounds better when you don't play the open string.
That will probably make you a 5 string player forever.
Then thump the open B only when there are no windows in the house or the temp is above 65 degrees F.
the 5 strings makes you ormery

Good thing we only had two sets last night! This thing killed last night! I like it just how it's set up and ordered a couple sets of Slinkys for it with the .130 B string. Did I get the right ones? If not I'll adjust it because if anything I'd like just a little more string tension.

coul y'all post some better photos of these Single H's. Finding them is like looking for a unicorn. I've seen a lot of profile photos but they're all so small!

You want single H pics? You got 'em.
How much growl does the single hummer have?
would it be more comparable to the neck or bridge p/u in a dual version?
I hear so many darn good things about these.... I would like a little bit of an idea of what i'm getting into before ordering one... It looks like it the bucker is in a ray like position... so is it a ray on roids, very growly or is it a fat round tone like when a bongo is rolled towards the neck?
p.s. on the Hs bongo I much prefer the bridge p/u
