Ugliest Bass Guitar Award

[bovinehost]

Not too keen on others' opinions? Maybe it's time for you guys who love the Bongo's looks to get a "new schtick."

I am actually all hot and bothered for opinions. It's just that I get bored with the SOS.

THough nowhere near as awful as the ones posted in the beging of this thread, I really don't like the way rics look. To me it's just plain akward.

When I first saw a Bongo I thought it was a joke but after I looked a little while longer I decided I kinda liked it, I don't think I would want one, but I don't think they're ugly, just different. They do look a bit like a goldfish cracker though, especially the orange ones...

I always thought Bootsy Collins' bass was fugly as hell...

My opinion: Fisheye lens or pregnant bass.
J/K- I'm indifferent to Bongoes, but I do have a burl afzelia-topped singlecut.

Edit: After looking at this pic one more time, I'm starting to lean pro-Bongo. I certainly like the color combo.

Whats the big deal? Its just a "shaped" bass..

 

[Blackbird]

Please do not post photos or links to photos of basses that are of a design that isn't suitable for viewing by children.

No, I don't mean Wishbasses - I'm referring to instruments that resemble genitalia or nude human figures.
