Well, it was bound to happen. I mean--it'd be pretty selfish for someone to keep such an awesome looking bass to themselves. The more Bongos the better!

Bongos for everyone!

I think Paul beat the both of us to this by quite a spell...not sure how much of a lead he has on us, though.

You know, the more I see this EBMM "Candy Red" the more I like it. It's not your typical "Candy Apple Red" as found on other brands...it's a deeper, more "burgundy" color...very rich looking finish.

I've noticed that, too.

TBH, the studio shots on the EBMM site don't really do the finishes justice (no offense, BP), and I wasn't sold on that finish until I saw a picture of Paul's (smallequestrian to the newbies).

As far as Bongo finishes go, my next order will be Carbon Blue; Tobacco Burst for my next Ray.

All packed Shamus..."Brown" will be here soon to get it. I forgot what in the heck you traded to me for this so the invoice just says "Trade Deal/No Cash" and I put the value on the invoice at RAP price.

I also gave you a special piece of SWAG taped to the back of my business card so be sure to cherish it forever.

:p

I didn't know you could tape DNA to any surface. ;)

The trade was the White SR4 that went to Germany, and the Lakie 44-01 Deluxe...whatever happened with that one?
