Sean - nice Bongo 6. Aren't they amazing. I've got a 6HH - love it.
They really are. Mine won't be collecting dust for a good long time to come.
Aren't they beautiful though?

Flossin'? I thought your name was Munson!
Just got my second Bongo (sold the first one last year) today! Sapphire Black 5 HHp. My head is still spinning from the potential versatility! Can I get a number?

Hi All, I've been a member here for a just a short while, and I'm a proud Bongo owner (for about a month, still on the honeymoon) but I'm really looking for some sound advice before I do something drastic.
I'm going to school and only work a few hours a week as a personal trainer. My free gym m'ship expired since I don't have enough clients, and with the slow economy, I don't see that changing. So now I'll be building my home gym. Trouble is, I don't have the necessary startup funds, which is as little as $200-$300. So here's where I need the advice: do I sell the Bongo, get something halfway decent, and drop the remaining cash on my gym (fitness is very important to me, as much as my music) or do I find alternatives? Is it worth letting the Bongo go to get a lesser comparative (i.e. Ibanez ATK, Lakland 44-01, G&L Trib L-2K, etc.)? I've read reviews on those basses? Not looking to hijack here, but didn't want to start a new thread for something as menial as my little problem...

How's this?
Uber cool! You are club member #68. Welcome!
(Reminded me that I haven't taken my Bongo Head pics)
Did someone say fretless? Here's mine again too.
And with its cousin:
Lovin that color Bill

I've added an orange swirl PG to my desert gold Bongo.
(old and new, that's right)
I think it's really beautiful and unique.
