New to the site and I need some direction. When I was younger, I lived with my parents and I had a job at a local Guitar Center. I bought and sold a lot of gear. I went through a vwh back when they had ebony boards, had a mystic jpm6, prestige 1570, and I finally settled in on a EB JPM6 Lava...

For some reason unknown to me, GC seems to be blowing out EBMM Bongo basses. These are AMAZING basses, with an incredibly wide tonal range. For example, if you look up a Bongo 5 on the Internet you'll see they run about $1675. Most GCs with them are selling them right now between 950 (for the...
