Don't know if these stats are kept but I'm getting closer to ordering a single H. Color is still undecided. Figured I might be able to narrow it down by settling on the rarest of the colors. Any help Beth, Dargin, et.al.? You guys keep track of such info?

Whatever it is, when it is discontinued because nobody bought it, you guys will piss and moan because it isn't available anymore.:p

That's why I'm asking now. ;)
 
Bongo's in general are a rarity around San Francisco; unless they're in abundance where you're at, pick a color that actually suits you.

The rarest color suits me. :D

Seriously, how about teal pearl with maybe a white ice or moonstone pg? Any other pg combos to suggest?
 
White

I would have to say that on my list white is the least sold color for any EB.

That being said, I just ordered an HH Desert Gold Bongo 4 today :p

I'd have to agree, which is a shame, because my white Stingray is as sharp as a tack!:cool:
 
Guys, I hate to bear the bad news, but didn't they discontinue the colour white on Bongos? As I recall they were having problems matching the body paint to the neck paint. Hopefully I'm wrong though, I too would like a white Bongo.
 
Yeah, that's true. It was a nice color, too. *moans about it* :p

As luck would have it, some limited edition neckplates mistakenly made their way into the bin, and I ended up with this:

:cool:


As for which color to get, I'm personally waiting for a limited edition color that I can't resist. So far, the Buttercreme is too close to white, and the stealth and black/gold are too close to my black sapphire, so I've been able to dodge a few bullets.

That said, don't buy a color simply because they don't make many of them--get the one that you like. You'll be happier in the long run.

This is what I thought I did buying a Desert Gold, and it turns out that suddenly weveryone loves that color:D
If I hadn't managed to trick Jack into selling the Envy green, I would have gotten a Teal, because i haven't seen many of those.
A white with tort PG would also have been nice, if they hadn't stopped making them.

So, Teal pearl, that is the way to go.

Or, you order a Ltd Ed 2006:D
