Electric bass with agile playing characteristics
The Music Man Bongo 6 HH Stealth Black, whose pioneering design was created in collaboration with BMW Designworks USA, is a modern 6-string E-Bass with great playability and flexible sound. The bass guitar with a matt black stealth finish features a strikingly shaped body made of basswood and a bolt-on maple neck with an extremely comfortable profile. With two neodymium humbuckers and an active 4-band tone control, the Bongo 6 delivers a broad sound spectrum on the bass amplifier, which impresses with a balanced output of all strings. Last but not least, typical Music ManHardware in the form of a steel bridge and precise lightweight tuners complete the Bongo 6 HH Stealth BlackE-Bass from Music Man.
Pioneering design and flexible sound: The Music Man Bongo 6 HH Stealth Black is equipped with neodymium humbuckers and an 18-volt preamp.
The smooth transition between the neck and body allows easy access to the high registers.
Futuristic design with comfortable handling
The avant-garde design of the Music Man Bongo not only impresses with its optimal playing characteristics, the carefully matched tonewoods also give the six-string a precise sound character on all strings. The lime body with its strong character lines assumes a balanced playing position both on the strap and on the thigh, while the wide and flat D-profile of the five-piece bolt-on maple neck promises agile playing characteristics in all positions of the 24-fret ebony fingerboard.
Two humbuckers with powerful neodymium magnets and the extremely flexible 4-band EQ allow the bass sound to be precisely tuned.
Neodymium pickups and flexible EQ
The electrical sound conversion of the Bongo 6 is handled by two Music Man humbuckers with neodymium magnets. Thanks to the powerful magnetic material, the pickups produce a powerful sound with a high output and precise detail, guaranteeing clean output from all strings. In addition to the blend control for infinitely variable mixing of both pickup signals, the electric bass guitar also features an active 4-band equalizer, which allows the sound to be adjusted with particular precision. Thanks to the operating voltage of 18 volts, the electronics also impress with an enormous headroom for a clean output even with a strong attack and extreme settings of the tone controls.
Six lightweight Music Man Custom Tuners ensure precise tuning and prevent the dreaded neck dive.
Indestructible hardware equipment
Naturally, Music Man completes the Bongo 6 HH Stealth Black with its own indestructible Hardware hardware. The all-steel Music Man standard bridge not only supports the precise sound character of the six-string, but also guarantees exact adjustment of intonation and string action. Music Man Lightweight Tuners behind the Music Man plastic nut, whose compensated string rests allow the empty strings to be intonated cleanly, also ensure precise and robust tuning.
