I think the previous tester has seriously failed to bowl, I have this bass for over a year and it is very well built. I even ordered a second three months later, the same manufacturing quality.
It's simple accuracy, broad neck at nut, humbucker without the fuss, jack it cool when playing seated, and reduced weight. Standard sizes, therefore large enough anyway.
Mechanical clutch, rare at this price, simple adjustable bridge, what more could you want? TV?
The handle is c, comfortable satin finish, but still fast. Access to acute nickel is up to the 19th box, nothing to complain ...

UTILIZATION

I find the concept as great as the Telecaster, not look but you can do with no worries.
Compared to a jazz bass, the instrument is more balanced physically (it is closer to the first cases), and the sound is more wooded, richer. The handle is also broader guarantee of reduced fatigue and slap coolest.

SOUNDS

I do not play that slap (or agreements with tappées harmonics) on the lower four strings (my pet ...), and clear sound.
The clarity of its accuracy is obvious is ... accurate!
This micro harley is my faith very correct, but lacks body and punch in the bass. Considering the price is nothing, not catastrophic, it's just in comparison with a real United States.
The tone is usable, and everything is so extremely simple ... No real limits eventually, work and nothing else. And therein lies the essence!

OVERALL OPINION

A super low to begin with, to work. The frets are well finished, nothing to say.
I find this amazing concept of low efficiency and versatility are only looking to use them ...
As the instrument is made, we can first buy a decent amp (the cube30 roland bass is amazing!) And possibly a micro switch.
In short, I love this bass, it allows me to enjoy myself and even if so, to make progress (as EVH hot in the video for teachers ...).

I have or have had a lot of Harley Benton, and with one exception each time it is amazing quality, I do not even mention the price ...
