I reckon you'd be 3 when you fell in love. Out of interest your missus wasn't in Brotherhood of Man was she? Yeah. Nursery. 1987. I bought her a valentines card when I was 6. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OliverBlackman Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 I’ve played mostly the Squier for at least 6 months, leaving the other two in their cases. It’ll be their turn at some point though. I’m sure there will be a moment where the Bongo is the right fit and you’ll be thankful for keeping it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember coming to your place to buy that Bongo (brought my then brand new Classic Stingray with me). That particular Bongo has the added dimension of the piezo - gives it a cool additional flavour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is more than a third of my lifetime ago, which is totally mad. - the other Bongos went to BC'ers and EB forum users, but in the last 10 years people have disappeared or the basses have changed hands too many times to count. I still have my trusty '93 Sterling, which is the single bass I've owned for the past 9 or 10 years. During lockdowns, I accumulated a gaggle of vintage Japanese basses, which are all over the Thai marketplace. That Sterling, though, will stay with me forever. I do think the Bongo with Piezo works so beautifully. I believe that option has been discontinued for a while, sadly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
