EBMM working on Bongo 6 string!

Shannon · 05-29-2007, 10:06 PM

I never dug the 4 and 5 string Bongos, but these look really promising. Here's a shit ton of prototype pics. $10 says John Myung is responsible for this.

Now...if they'd just make a Stingray 6.

The see-through-white looks sick!

Given it's in the prototype stage & there's no logo on the headstock, I think it's actually "unfinished."

Sterling has said before that the 6 string market is very small, and would only venture into it if they had an endorser backing it.

Enter the Myung.

I'm looking forward to it. A lefty wont be released right away, but eventually one will.

I dig the 6 string version. I wasn't too fond of the Bongos when they first came out, but these are looking good =)

The pnly possible endorser i could think of is Myung, especially since petrucci is also playing EBMM. On the other hand myung has his yamahah sig that's not very old.

I'd guess if they've got an endorser on board to kick start this it's got to be Myung. How much does the layout of that single pickup prototype look like his Yamaha!

If they ever make a 6 string with dual humbuckers I´m selling my dog to get one.

I KNEW Scott would be excited to see this.

I'm a Porcupine Tree fanboy, and I like lots of strings. I'd love one of these, but I'd love it even more if they made a seven...

A StingRay 6 would be killer, but a Bongo will do.
