Where to begin?

This is truly funny. When I first ran across the Bongo, I pretty much flipped it almost instantly because it had so much flexibility it induced options anxiety in me.

So for the New Year, I had to go and do this.. I must be a masochist lol....

Nah, it's just the Mind Control Rays at work.

Welcome back!

Oh man, I never left! Now I really have to get down to business, there must be every shade of the rainbow in this bass......

 

[Duarte]

Sweet. Super sweet.

That face plate is bomb! Did it come like that? It looks so much better than that blue tortoise shell.

That's hotness incarnate! What color is the finish?

It is Graphite Pearl with a Black Ice guard I believe. It was a GC special order that the customer either returned, or didn't take delivery on. So I got it on clearance....

 

[Grand Wazoo]

oops, it looked like sapphire black, my bad!

Nothing bad here my friend, it's all good! That is of course once we get the official thumbs up from Lord Bongo...

i like hard coldness of the sapphire black and black ice up against the lovely organic rosewood.

i like hard coldness of the sapphire black and black ice up against the lovely organic rosewood.

But it is not sapphire black apparently...still it is sexy.

Graphite pearl? One of my favorite colors, and probably my favorite color on a Bongo (short of the mahogany one).

Nice bass - congrats!

 

[oli@bass]

That. Looks. Hot!

Thanks for the props my friends. I love the look too... but the sound with this piezo is just slaying me right now. What a fantastic tone, sounds like the worlds largest upright!

[RaginRog]

Nice bass...is it sapphire black or egyptian smoke?

It looks like it's on MY bed...I just had that same color sheet set on my bed this past weekend.

Congrats!!

This one is Graphite Pearl according to the receipt. I am really digging this color for the Bongo. This is now a discontinued shade, no?
