Ernie Ball Music Man Now Offering John Myung Signature Bass in Platinum Silver
Ernie Ball Music Man unveiled a signature bass for Dream Theater’s John Myung back in 2020, and now they’re updating it with a new finish. The John Myung Bongo 6 HH now comes in a Platinum Silver color palette to complement the original black finish.
It retains the rest of the six-string model’s specs, including the unique rosewood and roasted maple divided fretboard, a basswood body, and a pair of neodymium humbuckers with a five-way pickup blend knob.

I like the well designed compact headstock and tuner machines on this bass… There’s usually so much unnecessary weight-adding space at the head end of most basses, but IMO this one has got it exactly right!
