I hate hate hate to do this, but I need some help to finance my album as we ran a little over budget...

Here is my EBMM Ball Family Reserve Roasted/Black Sugar Bongo 5 HH, Born on December 14, 2010. Key features include BFR inlay at the 12th fret, custom black sugar finish, "roasted" maple neck with ebony fretboard. This bass is practically brand new, and it just sings, period.

$1615 shipped and insured CONUS

I'm not a fan of Bongos at all, but this looks like a nice piece to have. Sorry you have to dump it. Good luck on the sale. Sick neck.

In other words, busted, broke, my woman left me in a bad way. Killer bass, brother, probably the best bongo made.

GASP!!! That's a beautiful bass. I hope your luck changes quickly before you end up selling this one.

Best of luck all around, no matter what happens.

I've got it's little brother... and am by no means a veteran player but here is a video that might help give you an idea of these babies' monstrous tone, versatility, and stunning finish.

YouTube - EBMM BFR Roasted Bongo 4HH

I highly recommend both this seller and this bass!

I bought this in a 4. Traded it for a big al 5. But tempted to pull the trigger on this one. Dare me, ok?
