    The handle is 4.3 cm and 6.2 at nut down.

    UTILIZATION

    Play the bass is sitting balance and "calle" easily. With a strap, the head of the nose a little picnic. It is far from the handle of JB ... l is rather large but ultimately argrable.
    The underside of the handle and bevelled under the table: there is no finish.
    The screws on the pickups are the heads of poor quality and they are abmes t overtighten (embedded in the plastic).
    The nut is a horrible piece of plastic that does not inspire confidence. Nets (white binding) are a scrub because there are traces of normment pose.

    At this point you would think that the only care that low intake is sticking trs's own label "made in china" ... But there are good surprises! the frets are well set trs, assemblies of the table are Russian paint and varnish are super! whew

    SOUNDS

    I am surprised because the sound enjoyable "unplug" is good. I prfre even my bass Acoustic (Bee & Billy 833C/EQ)

    For sound: you can go the <a rel="nofollow" href="http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=e_oP_ELRZXE" target="_blank">http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=e_oP_ELRZXE</a> . All rglage background and zoom through B2.1U.

    OVERALL OPINION

    A 250 Harley Benton HBB 1960's seems to be the least CHRE your exact market and is fairly good for this budget: not at all (which explains the good "rating")

    There was also a Harley Benton HBB 1960 "black" with a single microphone 180.
