Just bought an EBMM Bongo 6 Stealth Black HH! And its a beast!!! >:D

After a few hours of playing with it, i felt that the neck is actually heavier than the body. Feels weird at first but i got used to it. For those who are planning on buying one, don't hesitate!

I'm currently "thief-proofing" this, lol.
 
My old bass was an Ibanez SR505, when i played this it took a bit of time to get used to. The string spacing is manageable, not that far. The neck is so freakin' thin. The finish feels so smooth on the hands. The headstock looks like sharpened dagger with matching tuners that looks like man-eating-machines!
 
The Stealth Series truly make me wish EB/MM made black & gold hardware optional on all their instruments - IMO I believe their have colors that would be vastly improved by a change in hardware color, and it's not like they haven't make instruments in black or gold before or that that it would be difficult or a huge price increase...

Extremely nice Bongo 6, BTW - if I were still in my 6-string playing days, it would likely be the 1 production-level six-string I'd likely play! :D

Does it dives when standing, wearing strap? And is that bass very heavy? Because even my stingray 5er is a back-breaker.
