NBD Music Man Bongo HS 6 Honey Roasted PDN

A Bongo 6 had been among my top 3-4 of my wish list for a long time. Today I got to check that item on my list.

This Honey Roasted finish was my favourite PDN offering over the years. I would have preferred a HH model but I found this HS model online last week and it was already located in Canada, Avenue Guitars in Edmonton, Alberta. The bass had been sitting in their inventory as old-new stock. The bass never left their store. I decided to spring for it.

Pictures are fine but I have to say the finish and the roasted neck looks even better when you're actually holding it. The pick guard isn't dirty. That's just the appearance of the plastic film.




I didn't have much time to play around with it yet, but it has a wide range of tone available.

 

I would have preferred the half-moon inlays, but I didn't really have a choice in the matter. This bass was already in the store's inventory.
