The Ernie Ball Music Man Bongo shattered expectations when it first appeared, proving that bold design and uncompromising performance could coexist in a single instrument. Available now at Haggerty's Music, the Bongo 6 HH represents Music Man's most advanced vision of the modern electric bass; combining ergonomic comfort, innovative electronics, and effortless playability into a professional instrument built for today's most demanding players. Its unmistakable silhouette has become synonymous with versatility, precision, and stage-ready performance.

Finished in striking Stealth Black, this six-string Bongo pairs a lightweight basswood body with a painted maple neck and smooth ebony fingerboard for a remarkably balanced feel. The sculpted double-cutaway body provides unrestricted access to all 24 stainless steel frets, while the custom neck carve and sculpted five-bolt neck joint encourage fast, comfortable playing across the instrument's entire 34-inch scale. Every detail, from the lightweight tuning machines to the matte black hardware, contributes to exceptional balance and long-term reliability.

At the heart of the Bongo lies Music Man's powerful dual humbucking pickup system with neodymium magnets, paired with an 18-volt active 4-band preamp that offers extraordinary tonal flexibility. From pristine modern slap tones and articulate fingerstyle clarity to deep, aggressive rock and metal voices, the Bongo 6 delivers remarkable headroom and sonic authority. Complete with its softshell case, this American-built bass is an outstanding choice for professionals seeking extended-range capability, uncompromising craftsmanship, and limitless tonal possibilities.
