This part of the crowd knows the red on the strings go great with a Bongo.

Good looking Bongo Jack.

I personally don't care for them myself Biff but I've been the #1 US dealer for them for 5 years running. The downside to selling dead strings is they never go dead so it cuts into repeat sales until customers buy a new bass. (Thank god for Roto's)

First thing I do when I get back is to place my opening stocking order for EB starting to get the ball rolling on them. I have the EB String page all ready to rip on the VBTC website. I'll offer up a free set of EB strings to anyone who wants to tak ethe time to QC the page for errors while I'm gone...I know there must be a few errors on here.

I took a look and all the links look OK, and no glaring typos, so I think you are good to go. Now, in return for the favor, perhaps a nice set of flats that you can ship to me with my 30th. 'Ray in a week or so?

I don't think the flats are called Slinkys?

Good catch. I missed that one.

Mine were that:

- all the pictures in each group are of the same strings, but the actual packaging is different depending on gauge
- in the description of the Earthwoods, aside from the typo (it's should be its) it says that the color of the strings is what makes them sound good. Ummm...yah. (To Steve's credit, he did just copy that from the EB site.)
