Tragically Hip

[jongitarz]

We are building a Bongo for The Tragically Hip...A Graphite Pearl HH 4 string...Just thought our Canadian forumites would be interested

Woo-Hoo!! One of my students just went to their show in Vancouver this past week-end and said it was a blast.
I thought it'd only be a matter of time!

I love the graphite pearl. Guess my bongo won't be too special when I order it. Oh well atleast it will be seen in a great band.

Any special features or just a standard Bongo???

Silly boy.....EVERY Bongo is special!

 

[scottbass71]

Yeah I know!!
how about features not available on commercial products with the exception of rockstars

 

[jongitarz]

It's passive

 

[crazybass888]

A passive Bongo? What a waste of wood...

 

[TSanders]

It's passive

WHAT????? Id expect more from you guys Jon. Im only kidding.

 

[TheDirtyMoocher]

i agree...i mean aside from the great neck and body design, the awsome pickup setup, and the absoute comfort of it, the 18v preamp is what really makes the bongo unique...or something...oh well its still a great bass

 

[Dargin]

The sound on those is just as impressive as the sound on the active Bongos.

Are you saying that are going to be other passive Bongos??

 

[Psychicpet]

probably if your ban sells that many records

 

[skabassist13]

wait wait. how are you making the bongo passive? would you please enlighten me to the differences in preamps from the active and passive one. i would like to know how you did it.

 

[oldbluebassman]

I would assume that if it's passive,

then it ain't got any sort of pre-Amp.

Dave is correct...No Pre amp

 

[Morrow]

that's what I would think

 

[tkarter]

Has EB built a passive Bongo before this order? If so any sound clips?

[MingusBASS]

So does it have 2 knobs?

Andrew

Yeah, did the bass still have the four knob holes (Heh heh....knob) routed, or is it a two knob Bongo? Inquiring (okay, bored) minds want to know.

And, we demand pictures! Well, ask politely for pictures, anyway....
