mattbass6 Posted April 14, 2010 Posted April 14, 2010 (edited) I cannot believe this is happening to me, but I bought a beautiful Musicman Bongo 6 HH (in red) bass 3 weeks ago and totally fell in love with it. The feel, the looks and the sound but, it's not the sound that is right for my band and music. I have been playing Yamaha TRB6 basses for years but when the Bongo was launched I had to have one. I am now about to go on tour and have resorted back to my Yamaha but I don't want the Bongo sat around. I paid £1899.00 and will be looking for either - 1) A trade for a good condition Yamaha TRB6P (not a TRB6 JP) and small cash adjustment depending on the condition of the bass. or 2) A trade for a good condition Yamaha TRB6 and cash adjustment. or 3) £1450.00 straight cash deal. I am absolutely gutted about this but I know what I need and this has to go. This bass has never been used in rehearsals or live or been out of the house and is in 100% new condition with Musicman case, which is also in immaculate condition. Hopefully hear from someone soon and for it to find the right home. If you want anymore information, just get in touch and I'll help in anyway I can. Thanks. Here are some pictures.

It is one of the finest basses I have ever played, seriously (plus it's a stunner) and I know I am going to regret it but I need the right bass for my gig and this isn't it I wish it was!!

mattbass6 Posted April 15, 2010 Author Posted April 15, 2010 BUMP of the day for a stunning new Bongo bass that needs a good home
mattbass6 Posted April 17, 2010 Author Posted April 17, 2010 THIS IS BACK UP FOR SALE OR TRADE AS THE ONE THAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN UNFORTUNATELY FELL THROUGH AND NOT DUE TO ANYBODY'S FAULT. JUST ONE OF THOSE THINGS. SO, HERE IT AGAIN.
mattbass6 Posted April 18, 2010 Author Posted April 18, 2010 Sunday morning BUMP Have a wonderful day and please give this bass a new home. A silly price for a beautiful and unused bass. Cheers.
mattbass6 Posted April 20, 2010 Author Posted April 20, 2010 Bumpity Bump Someone make me an offer if they are interested. I'm open to it as this can't stay just sitting here, a waste of a beautiful bass.
phil_the_bassist Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 would you consider a trade for a sexy 5string, or are your a 6er-only type of guy?

I really need a back up to my main Yamaha as we have a lot of touring coming up - just got back from the first leg of this tour today. I desperately want another TRB, so thanks again for the offer. Take care. Cheers, Matt
mattbass6 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Posted April 27, 2010 OK, I'm going to go a bit bonkers here, but does anyone fancy this for a silly price? £1300? Seriously, never been gigged, never been out of the house and still has the bar code sticker on the back. That has to be a good deal, surely? Let me know, it's here waiting for the right home.......
