Then, already bah I bought it in lefty, it changes nothing about the production but I still said,
Basswood body
Maple neck
Rosewood
A micro and a micro JB PB
Active Electronics
Mechanical oil bath
Chrome hardware
3 knobs "tone"
and a volume knob

UTILIZATION

then, already, contrary to some opinions, mine was playable when I received it, the setting was well done and asser finish, nothing to say
without telling it is (I think) really beautiful in black transparent like that :)
I have 3 years, and apart from changing strings I never touched anything on this bass and it sounds just as good, the welds are still holding (unlike some harley benton)

UTILIZATION

without telling it is (I think) really beautiful in black transparent like that :)
I have 3 years, and apart from changing strings I never touched anything on this bass and it sounds just as good, the welds are still holding (unlike some harley benton)

I play with different styles, from blues to funk and other metal / death
and, frankly micro active are really good for bottom lines

the handle is pretty good, and balancing it yours too well, it is also asser light (unlike my BC Rich warlock) finally good that is not comparable;

SOUNDS

I like the sounds good, powerful and asser hot I would say, but what really got me most is that even with a distortion, reverb, or other, the bass still well able to follow
I do not have much to say about the sound, since I'm quite satisfied

OVERALL OPINION

I have 3 years, and yet no technical failure and frankly, for a harley benton, compared to the reputation of that mark, I am satisfied, a good bass to start
freighted with its handle 24 and an acute access to properly clear, I would say the price / quality ratio is really good

Harley Benton: Asian manufacturing certainly considering the price of the bass.

Active electric bass 24 frets, 2 pickups, 2 volume and 2 SETTING THE SETTING THE Tone.

mapleneck with rosewoodfingerboard, Saddle width

Black color transparent.

Price: around 150 nine

UTILIZATION

The frieze round a bit, and a MRIT rglage, but once done, a roll. I am surprised by the enjoyable quality of sound obtained (always in relation to the price of the instrument) I regret, however, SETTING THE Tone prcis enough, I prfr Grave and acute rglage a spar rather than 2 tones. But remember that it was a low 155 and it filled all that is expected of her!

I am surprised by the enjoyable quality of sound obtained (always in relation to the price of the instrument) I regret, however, SETTING THE Tone prcis enough, I prfr Grave and acute rglage a spar rather than 2 tones. But remember that it was a low 155 and it filled all that is expected of her!
It is relatively lgre, Access in acute is easy because of the large notches, the handle is not big and finishing correct (if somewhat grossire on the head handle) and the logo.

SOUNDS

I play on a crate 100W amp, and the sound is of good quality after all with this bass, at least it's night and day compared to the previous low I used Suzuki. I manage to get sounds ranging from jazz slap I prcise I'm not Jaco Pastorius and I play rock, so good sound, as we hear the note without either breath grsillement I was going! But it has done its rle and to explore more range of sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 months, and I must say that for a first prize, I have not found a better price quality ratio, a sound is not too tiring to play and aa of the mouth!
I try like bass Jim Harley or Suzuki OCCAZ and first prize, and although the harley benton is well above a price infrieur. It is clear that if I would do again c'tait a choice.

SOUNDS

The sound of this bass suits me perfectly. I do not t have to make rglage, it sounded good without curling directly. Tone of the knobs are effective for me. It happens to have a nice jazzy sound .. mtal but also is available.

OVERALL OPINION

I for a week. My wife bought me she was tired of hearing me say that my missing component of low ... Considering the price, I'm Fully satisfied with this little low .... I'm just home from the studio .. I can not speculate on its use of bass amp ... I branch in my pod xt live ... I come and have a bass sounds very personal which offers great opportunities. The finish is not perfect, but for the price I t trs enjoyable surprise ... If I had to buy a bass, that would be the one with no problem ... 155 by post, a very good sound, good looks, a very acceptable finish ... Srieusement, I am not ashamed to have such a low ... The notes correspond to the use that I did not use a professional RPET or scene: I want to prciser

It's been one week I had the day I settle the handle and change the strings (those are not origins to top ...) I want a bass to play the home and I've found it suits me perfectly, and quality level / c price is 200euro with good arch houssej amp and have to try a pack Cort / peavay worth double and ca not sound better (even less versatile I think) I do not really regret ca worth its weight in peanuts
