Ernie Ball Music Man Bongo 6 HH 6-String Bass Guitar -

The Ernie Ball Music Man Bongo 6 HH is the kind of instrument that asks to raise game. Built in the United States with a bold sculpted body and a 24-fret neck that feels effortless under hands, this six-string powerhouse is designed for players who need modern range, impeccable clarity and a voice that can sit anywhere in the mix. Dual neodymium humbuckers feed an 18-volt active preamp with a studio-grade 4-band EQ, letting carve tones from hi-fi sheen to subterranean growl. More than a premium instrument, the Bongo 6 HH is a creative engine for bassists who want authority, articulation and a build quality that never gets in the way of expression. Sculpted Feel With Effortless 24-Fret Access The Bongo’s ergonomic double-cutaway body isn’t just distinctive—it’s designed to disappear against body. A lightweight basswood core keeps long sets comfortable, while the slim, rounded maple neck makes shifting across its full two-octave range feel natural. High-profile stainless-steel frets and a rosewood fingerboard give each note a clean attack and buttery smooth feel. Whether ’re navigating chordal work, extended-range runs or low-register grooves, the Bongo’s balance and contouring keep technique flowing without fatigue. Neodymium Humbuckers With a Studio-Grade EQ At the heart of the Bongo 6 HH is a dual-humbucker system loaded with powerful neodymium magnets—chosen for their output, definition and ultra-fast transient response. These pickups feed an 18-volt Music Man preamp with a 4-band EQ that behaves more like a mastering tool than a simple onboard tone control. Dial in piano-like top end, midrange punch that cuts through dense mixes or chest-rattling low end that stays tight and focused. With parallel wiring, detailed gain structure and flexible EQ architecture, this bass gives pristine studio tones or muscular stage presence with a few quick tweaks. Built for Demanding Players and Heavy Use A bass of this caliber has to perform night after night. The Bongo delivers with a dual-action truss rod, lightweight custom tuners, and a hardened steel bridge plate with stainless saddles for rock-solid tuning and sustain. From touring rigs to precision recording environments, the Bongo 6 HH brings durability and sonic consistency to players who push six-string technique and musicality to the edge. Bongo 6 HH: A Modern Classic for the Forward-Thinking Bassist The Ernie Ball Music Man Bongo 6 HH exists for players who expect a bass to respond like a true instrument of expression, not just a tool. Its range, electronics and ergonomic design make it a top choice for progressive rock, modern gospel, fusion, metal and any genre that demands extended clarity and control. If playing needs the kind of voice that expands what a bass line can be, the Bongo is built to meet there.
