FS: EBMM Bongo 5HH Candy Apple Red with OHSC

I really really don't want to do this but desperate times call for desperate measures.

My roommate informed me tonight that she was moving out and I had to find a new place to live as well. I have 3 months left of school before I move for good and since I'm going to have to get deposits together for a new place and have money to live off of while I finish my last quarter of grad school.

I got this bass at the beggining of July from another Tber and it is everything that I hoped it would be. I was told that it was a "nuclear cruise missile of tone" by tb's own IotaNet and he is absolutely right. The bass is every bit of amazing from the sleek neck to the 4 band EQ. She's sleek and fast and I have gotten a TON of compliments on the way she looks and the way she sounds!

The bass is in really good shape. There are the usual headstock paint chips that the mighty Bongo is known for, but other than that and honest player's wear she is pretty clean. She's at the church locked up right now, but I will make sure i'm not missing anything major tomorrow morning.

The bass comes with the OHSC with the Music Man label on it and it is in great shape as well. The bass is strung with DR Sunbeams currently and sounds fantastic!

Here's a current shot that I took on Friday to send to a friend of mine:


Price: $1075 shipped in the ConUS. Outside of this area pm me for shipping.

Checked the bass out at church today. Other than the aforementioned marks on the bass, I can't find anything on it! It's really clean and gorgeous!

I do love this bass, but I have to let it go for now.

Yea man...it's a great bass, but like I said sometimes life throws you a curveball and you have to adapt.

Sterling is still making them, so once I finish the masters, I'll get another one!

By the way, this one is sold.
