Major Disappointment

Haik5 10.09.2021

First of all, it arrived in absolutely disastrous string set up condition... the low B was at least 2 cm above the neck...the E was so low it was touching the pick ups...which were way too high...I mean really...when you order a bass that costs this much...at least you would expect some quality check if not from the fabricant at least from Thomann...very shameful...I have had cheap Squire basses that arrive with a better set up than this....
Second...after readjusting the pick up height myself (worth noting there is not a single tool provided with the bass), usually most guitars or basses arrive with basic set up tools...a wrench or a tross rod adjusting key or something...here...nothing... just a couple of fancy tissues to wipe of the dust...
so I had to borrow the set up tools from my Gibson (thank you Gibson, it was included with a guitar, and even accompanied by a leather strap and a hardcase...all for 1000 euro) ...take note Music man... 3690 and not even a strap or a tool to adjust truss rod...
anyways after i set up the pick up height...and lowered the B string I notice the E string is practically touching the Neck when I play an open E... its just muted... I mean...really... all the other strings are fine..but the E string is dead... what kind of quality check up have they done at the factory????
I have sent this bass back...and requested moneyback and i hope they will transfer this feedback to Music man so they can get a reality check...
shame!!! shame!! shame!!

Großartiges Profi-Instrument

Meypelnek 20.07.2022

Ich habe in bald 30 Jahren viele Bässe, die meisten 5-Saiter, gespielt (Fender, Schack, Sandberg, Xotic, Music Man, Marleaux, etc.).
Der Bongo ist in punkto Ergonomie kaum zu schlagen. Der Harvest Orange bringt 4.2 kg auf die Waage, dennoch spüre ich nach 4h Gigs keinen Schulterdruck.
17,5 mm Stringspacing können gewöhnungsbedürftig sein, die Umgewöhnung ist es jedoch wert. Der Bass klingt sehr druckvoll und ausgewogen über das ganze Griffbrett und ich spiele damit alles von Marvin Gaye bis Dua Lipa. Der Bongo ist keinesfalls nur für Metall oder Progrock geeignet! Noch ein Wort zu Form und Lackierung: Ich spiele schon seit ca. 7 Jahren Bongos: In Clubs, auf Stadtfesten, auf Hochzeiten,... Ich habe immer nur Komplimente für den guten Sound bekommen. Nicht einmal wurde ich auf die Form des Instruments angesprochen. Die Lackierungen (Fuchsia Sparkle, 2019) wurden allenfalls gelobt. Übrigens hat mich auch die lackierte Halsrückseite niemals, auch nicht im Juli auf schwitzigen Hochzeitsfeiern, irgendwie behindert. Auch wenn die Music Man Instrumente stark im Preis gestiegen sind: Der Bongo ist jeden Euro wert.

Une basse de très bonne qualité

Anonymous 10.03.2023

J'ai eu le plaisir de commander cette basse Music Man Bongo 5 en février 2023. C'est une excellente basse dont les détails de finition sont vraiment parfaites. La couleur pailletée en met plein la vue. La basse renvoie exactement le son voulu.
Je recommande cet instrument à tout bassiste qui souhaite se faire plaisir.
Un petit bémol peut-être : le prix est un peu élevé pour une basse. Mais, on est ici sur un instrument de très haute qualité et fabriqué aux USA.
