...Always, I'm thinkin'!

Took a bit of time to get around these shot (and please pardon the quality), but attached you can see my new DG 5HS. I've swapped the orig. Black Ice PG for Tort...just love the look and what a fun bass the HS is! And the DG finish......:eek:...WOW!

Makes a great pair with my black HH as well, methinks.

Finally...in accordance with adouglas' plot for global revolution :cool::cool: I've now officially gone all Bongo.


Props to the guys at TPB for an amazing bass and super service!


P.S. there are funky reflections here...(no scratches on either bass).

Thanks, guys!

Couldn't be more proud...although after seeing these pics, it would appear that the fretboard on the black Bongo looks a bit dry. Time for a Wonder-Wiping! :)


especially with the MarkBass amp!

Dang, I do like that amp! And with a Bongo?.....fuhgettaboutit! Deep, sweet punchy goodness!

I need a towel.

Schweeeeet.


DG/tort is an all-time classic.

("Well, DUH!!" sez my HHp Bongo, which is resting on the couch to my immediate left.)

Oh, BTW....

While I have partaken of the Kool-Aid and now implicitly trust everything that the EBMM brain trust does, because they're smarter than I am when it comes to this stuff.....


....Discontinuing DG was just whacked.

Crazy-like, y'know?

To quote Tim the Enchanter:

Lookit the BONES!

I mean, crikey, just look at how that finish lights up in the sun.

Man.

Awesome.

Just sayin'.

Glad I've got mine!

Oh my what superb taste you have!!!:D

....especially since I have a Stealth 4HH and a DG 5HH myself. I'm not at home to post pics right now, but I can when I get back. I rather like my white ice PG, but that tort is awfully tasty, too.

Sure glad I have my own bongos or I would be so jealous.

Good looking pair of bongos you have there. You have your gigs more than covered there.
