A solid bass, great tone and very versatile. There's no fretwear, no buckle rash and the case is in great condition.

Despite the marmite looks these basses are superb, very ergonomic and versatile.

It's also got two pickguards, white pearl and black pearl.

The satin neck is really nice too. I've got it set up very low for plectrum playing at the minute but it's easy to adjust.

Lovely rosewood fingerboard with some great grain to it.

Built 21st March 2013.


One other thing to mention is the guy I got it off had tried to glue some toothpicks into the upper horn strap button hole. Sadly he used far too much superglue and there's a glue run down the rear of the upper horn. I tried to polish it out but it is still there, and it's really the only thing that spoils an otherwise great condition instrument.

For completeness there are a couple of small chips on the headstock tip, one small dent to the back of the neck and two small marks on the body above the 23rd fret.

Sale at £900
Now withdrawn. 

Based in York & Cumbria.

    New preamp fitted and raring to go bump.

    Cheers, it's great but I've found my bass soulmate in my Thunderbird. Nowhere near as nice or versatile as the Bongo though.

  • My main squeeze is a Stingray Special 5 String. I do love a Bongo though. What was wrong with the original preamp?
