Description
The Bongo 6 HH bass from Ernie Ball Music Man offers everything a modern bassist could want. With its comfortable double-cutaway basswood body and fast 24-fret neck, you'll have full access to the Bongo's smooth stainless steel frets for expressive two-octave playing. The Bongo 6 HH features a pair of Music Man humbucking pickups and an 18-volt preamp with a 4-band EQ, giving you a huge range of tones from vintage warmth to aggressive grit.
Superior Playability and Access
The Bongo's basswood body is contoured for comfort, balanced and lightweight. Its fast neck has a slim, rounded profile that fits perfectly in your hand. 24 jumbo frets on a rosewood fingerboard mean you can explore the bass's full range without restrictions. The cutaways give you clear access to the highest frets so you can play with confidence anywhere on the neck.
Powerful Pickups and EQ
The Bongo 6 HH is equipped with two Music Man humbucking pickups that deliver plenty of output for any style. An 18-volt preamp powers the pickups and provides boost, while the 4-band EQ lets you shape your tone from tight and punchy to broad and burly. With this flexible electronics system, you can dial in the perfect sound for any genre from rock and metal to jazz and funk.
Roadworthy and Resonant
Although lightweight, the Bongo 6 HH is a solid workhorse bass built to take the rigors of the road. Its construction is superb, with a neck-through-body design for maximum sustain and stability. The contoured body resonates freely, projecting a clear, woody tone. With its flawless build, powerful pickups and highly playable neck, the Bongo 6 HH bass inspires you to push your limits as a bassist.
