Dave's been a Bongo player ever since. Another early adopter, Dream Theater's John Myung was a driving force behind the creation of the 5-string Bongo. With its active electronics, amazingly versatile controls, neodymium-magnet humbucking pickups, and a bevy of other innovations, the Bongo proves that when it comes to basses, history isn't doomed to repeat itself.It's easy to keep your Music Man in top playing conditionMusic Man instruments sport an innovative truss rod adjustment wheel that makes it easy to fine-tune the neck.
